Memories

When my friends and family back home tell me that there is snow outside, I laugh at them and tell them that I'm still seeing palm trees. Whenever somebody tells me they're hoping they might have a white christmas, I laugh again and tell them how glad I am to be in a warmer place this winter. I don't like snow, I don't like the cold. Nothing was ever good enough.
But now I'm here I actually miss it. Not the snow, just the whole thing around christmas and stuff.. It's bigger here, but different. This valley already has some christmas decoration up and I enjoy it so much, especially when it's a plastic snowman stanting right next to some palm trees, but as I said, different. Watching pictures of my hometown in winter makes me think about sitting inside, listening to sinterklaas music, drinking hot chocolate and watching everything outide turn white because of the snow.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not homesick and I'm pretty sure this christmas will be the best I've ever had, but I just wanted those other stupid teenager friends back home to realize ; it's really not that bad :) Enjoy and I'll party along next year.

For now; I CAN'T WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS!
