Hello Cali!

I only got 1.5 hours of sleep last night because I was packing for my 10 day trip to Cali and moving out of my current living situation at once. I am glad to be rid of that bitch landlord and 7 roommates. Now I will have one Trinidadian roommate and an Ecuador born roommate who recently converted to be a Muslim. While viewing the landscape from the plane window, I was taken aback by the beauty of California landscape. I always forget how beautiful the land is. How green and blue and filled with hills and water it is. Its a beautiful state and every time I come home I wonder how I could ever leave. The weather was around 67 degrees today. I remembered how I used to lay on the sidewalk of my backyard and just absorb the sunlight, I like how it felt on my skin. I also remember staring at the night sky so full of stars when I was young wondering about my future. California is still the place I think of as home and where some of the most painful and awesome memories I've ever had took place. Somehow I began to equate going home to live permanantly in California as a failure. Probably because everyone I have ever known rarely leaves. I love this state, and maybe some day I'll come back, but not before I crack New York.
