After four years at UPS and countless “homes” mentioned in Ron Thom’s Convocation speeches I think it’s safe to say I’ve found a home at UPS. A home with my friends, with my sorority, with my major\/department, with my lab, with multiple communities.<\/p>\n
But I can’t forget the first home I came from the one where my parents raised me, where I grew up and where I decided to make Puget Sound my home! I’m lucky enough to still live in the same house I grew up in for 18 years, that I have my parents, siblings and friends still around to celebrate the holiday season with over break. I know not everyone is so lucky and I’m always grateful for how lucky I am to call Hawaii home <3<\/p>\n
I remember the feel of my bed and my pillow,<\/p>\n
I remember the pressure of my shower spray and absence of shower shoes,<\/p>\n
I remember the drive home and to high school,<\/p>\n
I remember the neighborhood Korean restaurant and the owner remembers me,<\/p>\n
I remember overheating in my high school classrooms<\/p>\n
I remember seeing a day fly by without doing anything but chilling in bed<\/p>\n
I remember accidentally stepping on my dog’s poop in the yard<\/p>\n
I remember anytime I venture outside it’s likely I’ll run into someone I know<\/p>\n
I remember those cringe-worthy moments from high school when I see an acquaintance<\/p>\n
I remember my favorite channels on the TV<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
