"home"-sick

so i've been back in southern california for almost a month now and it's great. i love being back by the beach with close friends and being back at school...but i still find myself still missing so much about portland. it was only my home for a few months but i think that it will always feel like home to me. 

these are things that i miss most about portland..

choco chip/peanut butter nights with mar

hiking in the gorge

last thursday on alberta street

the view from my room

hood river

powell's

heather

the waterfront

people biking

my roommates

stumptown coffee

sweet potato fries

thunderstorms

my home community (the pearl)

mt tabor

farmers markets

kickball

trips to the coast

eastside p-town

sunday dinners

nw 23rd street

tea chai te

the max

imago people

my friends on sandy and 9th

the air up there

watching the planes land on the runway at night

the drive through the gorge

all of these things make me realize that i will definitely end up there someday...the question is when?
