i wont miss the whistling noise my sliding porch door makes in windstorms. i'll miss my amazing view during windstorms. i wont miss having no anonymity. i'll miss having no anonymity [bc its like being a movie star]. i wont miss the sun streaming in at 6am making me sweat before i wake up. i'll definitely miss seeing that sunrise on the rare occasion that i come home at 4:30am. i wont miss not being able to drive. i'll miss sitting shotgun when someone fun is driving in the seat next to me.i wont miss j-pop. i'll miss live jazz. i wont miss annoying teachers. i'll miss my amazing friends.i'll miss himi like whoa.
