I joined facebook on june 13, 2005

two comments on a wednesday

#1 i have two homes.  honestly sometimes i get so homesick for the United States.  Watching music videos makes me think of hearing these songs on the radio and i get homesick.  internet shopping make me homesick for the stores.  pictures on facebook make me homesick for the people.  news about the weather makes me homesick for the local news.  reading the bible makes me homesick for spiritual companions.  yet i know that at the same time if i were to move to the the US i would be homesick for mexico.  long drives to work would make me homesick for walking everywhere.  watching music videos would make me homesick for catching a soundbite of those songs while on the street.  pictures on facebook would make me homesick for the people.  pictures in travel media would make me homesick for the natural beauty.  So what do i do?  be where i am until i am somewhere else, huh?

#2 I am not good at the "what i learned" thing.  how is it that when i go to school it takes so much work to think of something that i had learned.  isnt school for learning?  but, on the days i dont go to school it doesnt take so much to write what i learned that day.  we could make a lot of conclusions from that, but i think i'll leave it alone for now.

I learned that pretzels are boiled in lye before they are baked.  LYE.  that's crazy.
