Things I miss and will miss.

I am going back to America in two days! I am excited to be home, but also sad to be leaving Budapest. I decided to make two lists: one list of things I miss about America and another list of things I will miss about Budapest.

Things I miss about America:

• Milkshakes.
• Understanding what people say.
• The tutoring center at my college.
• Professors who are always available outside of class.
• My friends and family.
• Movies.
• Going places without having to deal with copious amounts of smoking.
• TGI Friday. This restaurant exists in Budapest, but it is ridiculously overpriced, even by American standards.
• My college.
• Free tap water at restaurants without even having to ask.

Things I will miss about Budapest:

• The excellent-quality low-cost food.
• The public transportation system.
• The panini press that came with my apartment.
• The colorful money.
• Being able to go somewhere like Austria for a weekend, just on a whim.
• My new friends.
• The beauty and history all around the city.
• Túró Rudi.
• The thermal baths.
• The palacsinta restaurant.
• Goulash soup.

These aren't in any particular order, other than just the order in which I happened to think of them. Also, after writing this up, I noticed that there are a lot of food ones. I like food.

I have at least two more journal entries left. First, my Logic class. Second, some of the sights that I have seen around Budapest itself.
