Home again, Home again...or however it goes

Hello all,
I can't believe it has already been almost a month since I've moved in. As a matter of fact, it has been a month exactly! As kind of a weird anniversary of that occasion, I went home this weekend. It was honestly a weird feeling. I mean, I missed my family a lot, but it was almost like my body had adapted to Luther being my "home." I can't exactly describe what I was feeling, except that it was similar to a "oh yes...." feeling. It was weird to see my puppies (5 and 10 year old dogs) again, weird to see the cows, and pretty much the same for all the other parts of the farm. Now, I would like to reiterate again, it wasn't a bad weird, it was a different feeling than what I expected. So, I spent some time with the family, went out to Hu Hot (an amazing mongolian grill chain in Iowa), and sang at a wedding. It made for a pretty random weekend, but towards the end I was slightly tempted not to come back to Luther (only about one percent....and that was only because my mom made pancakes before I left.)

I do think that while it was good to see my family, I don't think I could handle more than the once or twice a month seeing them, because then it would be really hard for me to come back to school. I've already kind of planned out my next visits home, so that shouldn't be a problem.

OTHER than that, the past week has been fairly uneventful, I got horribly sick and really didn't do much for the entire week. I'm still getting over it, but I think I may have gotten my two roommates sick...so sorry guys!

Well, I have to go practice some before my seminar!

Later,
Jake
