Last night, my class ended around 6:30 pm and it was already completely dark by then. I walked home (yes, mother, it was safe), and really enjoyed the walk. It was quiter than normal, and cool, and a bit of a breeze was blowing, and suddenly I was shocked to hear the steady humming of the crickets. Call me crazy, but it reminded me of being back home. I couldn't help but smile as I stopped for a minute to close my eyes and take it all in. I felt like I was right back at home. It was comforting to hear that sound that I so often take for granted.
Another thing I must mention here is the little Esso gas station around the street. Now, it's not a restaurant like it is back in Clemson, but just seeing the little sign made me smile and think of Clemson.
I do love it here, but I do miss home and miss all of my friends and family. Little things like this have been like reminders of home, and are comforting to me down here so far away from everything I know.
