home

there is no doubt in my mind, i am home. i have felt neither the anxiety nor visceral reaction (pre-game poo) that i had anticipated. the other nova kids are intelligent, nice, and by god actually attractive. of course there are a few of the awkward ones that dont really fit in to society in the u.s., and can come here and feel comfortable because they have a pretty good excuse for not fitting in. i feel so very blessed, having left some fantastic, beautiful, witty, kind people to hopefully meet more of the same. there are so many people in this world that i care about, and know that no matter the time, distance, or change, i can always go back to them. my goal is to remember to express to them how grateful i am to have them in my life, and try to be a bit more humble and a less preoccupied with my own sensitivities and more aware of theirs. oh, and maybe there was a little pre-game poo (but just a little).
