My family came to visit me yesterday. My sister brought some muffins she baked for me and my dad brought me a container of what tastes like sugar cane tea, and some oranges. We went out for lunch and dinner and did some shopping in between. I showed Mom and my sister Kim's room in Schäffer and they really like it (although Kim was caught a little unawares) and agree with my comment that there's way more than enough storage space.
I got some info on the Bikram Yoga place across from Buddy Wonton restaurant, because I really think that I should try to make time for that every week next year. A student 10-time pass is only $85, which is a really great deal, in my opinion, and they run a couple of sessions on Sundays.
Anyway, we went shopping at T&T, and just seeing all the different Asian foods like sushi and seaweed and fresh fish and frozen dimsum and instant noodles and BBQ meat made me so hungry for everything. I wanted to eat everything in there, because I haven't had a serious chance to eat those foods for so long. I told my parents that when I'm home for summer, I want home-cooked Chinese food every day.
When they left, I felt indescribably homesick. I felt completely wrecked. I guess it really feels bad to have just the people from home be with you, but you're not at home. It's like the people who can cook that good food for me are here, but they can't cook it for me. The loving environment that is home just isn't there, even though the people are.
I can't take this anymore. This weekend hasn't been enough; I need another week off.
