What I'm Going to Miss the Most

  • My family.
  • Missing two years of little sister Bek’s life (age 12) and niece Jayde’s life (almost 2).
  • My sister Bek's NDI dance performances. She's going to be a professional one day. Seriously. 
  • My niece’s “terrible twos.” She doesn’t turn 2 years old until September, but she's already giving everyone a glimpse of what's to come. Haha.
  • Dance sessions with my sisters and niece. 
  • My friends.
  • Spurs Basketball. I'm a BIG fan!
  • Downtown Santa Fe, particularly the Plaza.
  • Fiestas de Santa Fe. If you don’t know what Zozobra is, look it up on YouTube. It's one wild/interesting/great tradition us Santa Feans have.
  • Green chile. Most New Mexicans eat green chile with everything. It's going to be interesting not eating it on a regular basis. And by regular I mean at least once a week.
  • Santa Fe’s weather. We experience all 4 seasons here. It’s great.
  • Fall and Spring.
  • Snow.
  • My family’s Christmas Eve tradition of opening up our gifts at midnight, which is technically Christmas morning.  
  • Halloween (and Halloween costumes) with my cousin Ashley, who's my "twin cousin." Haha
  • The view on top of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.
  • Cold drinking water.
  • Being able to download and listen to any song, at any given moment.
  • Seeing beautiful hot air balloons in the Albuquerque sky. Especially in October for the Balloon Fiesta. There's literally hundreds of hot air balloons flying at once. It's breathtaking.  
  • Hot cheetos with lime. The flavor. I don't add lime to hot cheetos. Haha.
  • Breakfast burritos.
  • Green chile enchilidas (cheese, chicken, and beef).
  • Breaking Bad. I'm upset the final season has been broken up into two halves. I don’t know if it's Season 5-Part 2, or Season 6. Regardless, I will miss it.
  • Breaking Dawn-Part 2 midnight premier with my sisters.
  • Vegas. My friends, cousin, and I love taking trips there.
  • HLN, Fuse, Bravo, and E!.
  • Watching movies at a theater, and getting kettle corn popcorn. 
  • Twitter. I’m kind of obsessed.
  • Working with my close friends in the summer.
  • Ice cream. Especially Blue Bunny Banana Split flavor.
  • Pizza, particularly with black olives as a topping.
  • Coachella. I've only gone once (2012), but it was one of the best times of my life. The friends I went with will be going to 2013's festival. I'm bummed I won't be able to join them.
  • My iPhone.
  • Drinking hot chocolate during the Fall and Winter months. 
  • Wearing scarves, hats, mittens, coats, and boots. Winter attire is another obsession of mine. 
This is a list I will update periodically. It’s going to be interesting to see what I add to this list (and maybe even remove) once I’m in Samoa.
