3 parts of a return

uh, so i went home, like most people did, and i was going to write about it until i read some other people's online diarys' entries about them going home and i didn't want to write about it anymore.

so instead i will say this:

i understand California now.

California is a reality that most east coasters wish they could wake up to, but it is not real and will always be a dream for them. I, on the other hand, woke up from that dream every day hoping to be back in reality. but instead i was still in the dream, like falling asleep in the ocean and waking up back on the shore.
