Im feeling down in the dumps and all that I want to do is take a train to Munich or take a bus to see Diana Eisner at the Goldener Turm. But instead Ill go to Mullins and do my homework. They never warn you of the fact that study abroad can make you just as sad as it does happy. I am grateful for every morsel of my year, and know Im lucky as a celebrity four leaf clover to have been there and lived my dream. But God. Its been over a month since Ive been back and I still fall into these dark, depressive moods every now and again. I know itll be better with time and Im working to remind myself that even if I did return, it wouldnt be the same. The people I came to know and love, German and foreigner alike, have spread out across the globe. The only place MY Regensburg actually exists is in my memories and in my pictures. The only way for them to not become spoiled is for me to accept that fact and stop using them to feel sad, but rather to influence positive change in my life.
