my heart will go on

if anyone has ever left home for a significant amount of time, you know that after that said time you start to miss home. you especially miss your family and friends. and you start to miss the little niceities of your home country, that when you lived there, you often took for granted. things like concerts, sporting events, tim hortons, hockey night in canada, rickards red, coffee crisp, and poutine to name a few.

but when you start living in another country, you gradually start to make a new home (not that you forget where you came from or forget about your loved ones). you start eating different foods, meeting different people, seeing different landscapes, trying different activities. and as you get used to your new environment, your heart goes on, so to speak.

one such activity that i have picked up here that i probably never would have picked up at home is guitar. approximately 2 months ago i found a guitar in the trash. since then, i have been playing everyday. and although i make frequent mistakes with chords and i find that strumming is very difficult at times, i love to play.

even though i love where i'm at now, there are times when i do miss home. so i thought that i would tell you that i miss y'all and play you a good ole canadian song with applicable lyrics. a song by the worst canadian artist of all time...

ha, ha. enjoy...

HAHAHA! John, that song made me laugh so hard for so many reasons! It reminded me of the punk love song CD that I snagged from you years ago. It also made me giggle thinking about how much your Korean neighbours must love it when you rock it out...I remember those thin aparteu doors/walls!

I knew deep down you were a Celine fan.....

Miss you too. :)
