Going Back Home
December 6, 2013
I went home a week and a half ago for the first time since arriving at Oberlin - they say it's the most jarring visit home (the ominous "they" being other college students). As a result, the following are some differences I noticed between going home and being at Oberlin.
My shower at home feels so small now ...
And my bed felt gigantic!
My dogs grew out their hair since I left home.
And, of course, the weather was quite different in California...
I'm sure there are more weird feelings that stood out to me, but these are four that stuck with me the most. Oh, and the thing I loved most about home? Pumpkin pie, of course! (Oh, and my family obviously).

The House has shaped my Oberlin experience in so many ways.

PIE. Animated pie. Is it animated in real time, like, is that how fast the pie disappeared? Because at my house, it's basically that.
Also, my first summer home after having a twin bed in college was so baffling because I could roll over in my queen sized bed and not be on the floor/hitting my desk. Home. It's the little things.
