Back in America! It's great, it's funny how the feeling of home never changes. I thought that it would feel strange coming here, after being away for so long, but it just felt normal immediately. It's so interesting though, being here I'm seeing everything with new eyes. After becoming so used to life in London and how things look, how people talk and spell things. Coming here I notice all the things that make us different, but now in reverse! However in some ways I feel foreign here now. I don't have a proper cell phone, I'm on some stupid pay-as-u-go phone with expensive minutes. A blow dryer and straightener that barely work with the low voltage over here, and no access to my bank account in the UK.
At the moment I don't know where I belong!! I feel out of place here and I'm currently not allowed in London. I am really enjoying my time here at the moment. I love walking around Manhattan checking out the sights, spending time with Elyse, and relaxing at my Grandma's. But at the end of the day I really want to get back to London. I've created a life there! I have a fabulous boyfriend and a wonderful job. I love going to work everyday, I love spending my days with my students. At home I have great flatmates, and always have fun hanging out with them. I've put life on pause to spend time here and I'd like to push the button again to un-pause it! But...I have to wait.
I'm just trying to enjoy the present time! I suppose many people would love to take time away and bum around new york city. My family was here for the first 4 days and that was great. Good to spend time with them, and the rest of the fam here in New York. Nadia was here and I got to meet up with her and Elyse on Sunday night. That was really cool! Having my best friend in London and my best friend since forever together! It was fabulous. Thanksgiving was wonderful and we all had a really good time!
So now I'm just playing the waiting game and having fun in the meantime! Going into the city during the day, and relaxing with Granny in the evening! It's a good life :)
