Sometimes I feel bad about wanting to leave for college so badly. Leaving behind my family and friends is not something I'm looking forward to. It's just something that I have to do. Take the good with the bad. I'm going to make a lot of new friends and have new experiences, unfortunately I have to give up the friends i have now and the experiences that I've grown up with. I don't know what its going to be like when i don't know who im going to hang out with this weekend. Then again they will all be a short drive away. So i don't think it will really be that bad. But its not just that. I also feel guilty because growing up we always talked about after high school and being together. We were all going to live together in a big house and just be chilling all day every day. Even now the idea is really tempting, but i know it could never be reality for me.
I haven't told anyone this yet. But part of the reason i'm so anxious to get there is because, I truly believe that im going to meet my wife in college. So as you can imagine, i can't wait. Hopefully by the time i come back home, I will be with her and everyone can meet her and it'll be all good.
I love Mira Mesa. It is definitely my home cuz this is where my heart is. I can't even imagine being so familiar and comfortable with a place. I dunno where my life is going to take me, but i know that i'll never be so intimately involved with any place like Mira Mesa. There are only a handful of places in the US where you can live in a community that is so wonderfully diverse. I didn't have to grow up feeling like a minority and sometimes i think that has made all the difference. This place is my cradle, my crib. My development has undeniably been influenced by it. Its going to be weird leaving it, living in a new area. Not having Conchings a drive away. No Mt Soledad to disappear to. No La Jolla shores to bonfire at. No Pho Cali to eat soup at. No friends houses to chill at. No late night Carne Asada Nachos. No Nibans. Everything i love will be gone. But its ok ill find new places, though i don't if they will ever be as good; i probably won't give them a chance to be. Ive always wanted to raise my children here. I dunno where I'm going, but i will be back.
