Flying is simple. You just throw yourself at the ground and miss. - Douglas Adams

With my flight back home leaving next Thursday (I have only 1 week and 1 day left in England! noooooo!!), I've been thinking a lot about what I'm looking forward to when I get home and what I'll miss from here when I get home. And so I've made a list:

What I'll Miss: England
Cadbury Chocolate (ie the the best chocolate EVER.)
Neighbours (particularly Izzy and the Timmons... ::sighs:: what shall I do for cheezy entertainment now??)
Billy Graham and Graham Norton (I just put them together because they both have 'Graham' in their name lol)
London (and being able to do day-trips to it... how fantastic is that? And it's seriously my fav city EVER.)
Going into any shop (excluding TopShop and Miss Selfridges, which I don't like anyway) and being able to find my size and it's not in a 'plus-size' section
Being able to fly almost anywhere in Europe for less than $100 roundtrip
My friends here (of all nationalities)
The way the school system works here
Being able to find a Chinese restaurant on every street
The fact that every town has a legitimate museum (ie the history here is fantastic, and if you know me you know I'm a history buff)
Being able to take the train everywhere (and it's not Amtrak! thank god...)
The words 'queue' and 'car park' (I'll be saying these for ages... lol)
Marks & Spencer
CAMDEN MARKET
Everything British from the culture to the language to...just everything

What I miss: America
Nestle Crunch Bars (yes they have them here but they're really not the same)
White chocolate Reese's peanut butter cups
Swedish Fish
Iced Tea (southern sweet tea)
Real homemade lemonade (not the fizzy stuff, though that's good too)
Chicago
Miami
KFS mashed potatos (they have KFC in the UK, but they don't sell mashed potatos!)
The 2nd season of LOST
The entire new TV season I've missed (Reunion, Night Stalker, Invasion)
Indoor shopping malls (I never thought I'd miss Cherry Vale...)
Chili-cheese dogs
The way the school system works (lol)
The following restaurants: It's Greek To Me, Rositas, Tom & Jerrys, Panda Express, Papa John's, Egg Haven, Panera, Qdoba, any place with real southern food
Pumpkin Pie
American Jiffy or Peter Pan peanut butter
DRIVING
The words 'garbage' and 'trash' and 'candy' (I shall never erase those from my vocab!!)
My friends
My Ma, Da, and lil Sis (it's one thing being in Miami because at least we're in the same country but when I first arrived I experienced a slight... anxiousness because my Ma and Da weren't in immediate contact. I'm better now but I still miss them)

And that's that. I had to get it out of the way before I cry tears of joy and sorrow.

PS: I said 'wonky' today and didn't even realize it. lol. And I say 'bin' a lot now too... oh no! lol

EDIT: I've added loads of new pics to http://photobucket.com/albums/c264/tababroad/

On Wednesday expect pics from Oxford, England and on Thursday expect pics from Camden Market in London as the whole flat is going out together for one last get together before winter holiday break :)
