Things I have lost since moving to London
*Time. Time passes strangely here. Suddenly weeks pass and I realize I haven't seen someone.. Or spoken to a family member...
*Music: I used to go to shows all the time in Seattle and my life was full of song. I also knew what bands I wanted to see and when they were coming. I saw local bands and got introduced to some really awesome stuff. But because of my life and school... I don't listen to music much and when I do it's stuff I know. But I am generally listening to books or podcasts or church stuff. I went to a show on Saturday night (The Empire Kings) and while I didn't know the songs I definitely relished in the feeling of the music shaking me to my core. It's amazing that three people can create that much sound.
*Cooking/Baking: Brownies and cookies and cakes and pie-cakes (Pake?).. I can't remember the last time I baked something. I need to find people to bribe... Cause that's why I baked so much before. I was trying to bribe my warehouse people for friendship. Who can I bribe?
I did make dinner for some friends tonight. It was great. *sigh*
*Core friends: I have some really stellar friends here but I realized I generally hang out as a group. I like the group. The group is grand... but it's rather large and I am lost in it and remain silent in a corner. (until I bellow a laugh)
