Hyperconjugation

The last weekend at home just flew by. Food was good, the comfort of my bed and bathroom were much needed. Last week was very meh. But this weekend was totally relaxing and worth it. 

I always ask myself, as do my friends, "Remind me why again you live in Texas?" This is an issue I have been dealing with for the past 2 years and it's not that I regret my decision to stay in Texas, it's that question what if....I had decided on Berkeley or UCLA?

What would my life be like? Would I have that Californian mindset? Miss home? Eat such reeeediculously fresh food all the time! Be right next to my religious organization's centers and have friends that are on the same spiritual path as myself by my side. How different would my life be? Life would be much more expensive, that's for sure. But I would have no chance to dive into the Liberal Arts side of myself if I had gone to California. There would be no Plan II. There would be math, science, and more science. EW. 

The one thing that has assured me that I have made the right choice is without a doubt my friends. People to talk to, people to keep me company, people to love and who love me back. Granted I could have made the same kind of friends in Cali, how can I know that to an absolute certainty? I can't. I know I have the best friends right now--that is a fact and the reason I have no regrets. 

Plus I have made a promise to myself. I will graduate in 3 and a half years and what would have been the second semester of my senior year (at least from February till April) will be spent at Hidden Valley in Escondido CA. I cannot wait! It's a working retreat so I'll be a resident there but I'll pay my housing and food by working--I'm not sure what they'll want me to do....but we'll see. 

Sigh but back into the swing of school. OMG Heroes was so good tonight. This season is really moving at a good pace. HIMYM was the best of the 3 of the season so far.

I think you caught the right perspective. Perhaps you enjoy California so much because of the change of pace, because of the contrast.

We're glad you're here.

And I did.

but,.. but... if I had two electrons in my bond and you only had one electron, I'd tell my electron density to partially go over to your single electron and keep you company...

forget how much I miss you, I would hyperconjugate with you!
