Where you wish you were

Sorry there's been a lot of gaps in posts. With finals and holiday's and moving out of my apartment, setting aside time to write has been difficult.

Where I wish I was right now is easy. Right now I wish I was anywhere warmer than here. I wish I was in mid-southern California, chilling in a bikini, soaking up the sun. I wish I was in a tree in shorts and and a tank top, reading a book. I wish I was outside, at night, at the park talking to someone about absolutely nothing and absolutely everything until dawn. I wish I was sitting around a warm bonfire somewhere warm telling stories and jokes with friends, slapping at the mosquitoes on our arms, until 2 am. I wish I was sitting in my bed with my best friend doing nothing but venting and talking and joking and crying and laughing and just enjoying being 19 and happy. I wish I was cuddled up with my love under some warm blankets on my bed watching Star Wars. I wish I was sitting in a rocking chair, all grown up, holding a child that I could call my own. I wish I was on an adventure, discovering the world and all it's wonders. I wish I was sitting with my brother playing Skylanders, messing around and enjoying each other's company. I wish I was with my mom in bed talking and getting upset and questioning things. I wish I was in the kitchen with my other mom talking while we experiment with dinner together knowing that if it goes totally wrong, we can order a pizza. I wish I was on the moon, looking at the earth and realizing how amazing it is that one person can impact a planet so large. I wish I was on the coast feeling the ocean breeze on my face, hearing the waves crash, feeling the sand soft under my feet and the ocean cold over my toes as the sun sets on the horizon. I wish I was any place other than cold and alone, in my bed, studying for biology. I wish I was someplace happy. That's where I wish that I was right now.
