Coming to France to study abroad has been a dream come true and the best time of my life so far. I’ve gone to places that I could have ever imagined and lived moments that I have never anticipated. All college students should study abroad through their college years. I’ve had the best time and I could come back and do it all over again.
Now, classes are over, just counting down the days to go home. The days are going slow …and fast sometimes, I miss my family.
I will go home in a few days and I hope I could come back to France one day, I know I will. I will miss telling the French that I live in the chateau de Pourtales and make them jealous. I will miss the walk to the bus station, although as it was closer to go home I find myself hating it more and more. I will miss the ease and the uncomplicated way of going to places, all you need is a bus pass. I will miss the “Petit pain au chocolat”; you’ll have to try it to understand. I will miss the students I have met that are going to other states. Believe it or not I’ll miss the kitchen, 12 and 7 PM, our “rendez-vous” always pack with students trying to make lunch or dinner.
I will miss the computer lab, always hot just like I like it, where I spent hours working on my different projects and that one computer (that’s my spot). I’ll miss looking out in my windows every day, whether sunny or cloudy, rainy or snowy, there is always people running in the park. I will miss having those quiet moments to myself; it will not be the same.
…But on the other side I will be enjoying all of the things I missed back home from being in France. I will be reunited with my family which tops them all.
Aurevoir Strasbourg, France…I will see you again in the future.
