Other things.

After looking at the things I will miss after I leave at the end of the summer, l came up with a list of things that I will not miss. This was harder that the previous list (of which to I have missing my first NHL game in Winnipeg to add) of things. I must admit, a lot of this is just me trying to quell my nervousness about moving abroad...
-mosquitoes
-recently elected Conservative majority.
-living so far away from other cities and countries.
-MTS.
-being tied down to one place.
-jealousy of expats.
-Canadian beer.
-Very few musical festivals.
-living in a very conservative, very white, small town.
-American news. I'm really quite sick of having to hear about Donald Trump across the border.
-writing papers and writing papers in other languages.
-NOT living on my own. I'm definitely excited for that.
-I assume they still have tequila in England... Because if they, by some miracle of international trade did not, I would not miss Tequila (that vengeful bitch).
-WINNIPEG WINTERS.
-Winnipeg weather in general... Especially the mood swings of it.
-plugging my car in during the winter.
-forgetting to plug my car in.
-spending money on gas.
-driving 45 minutes to uni.
-the flatness of the prairies.

And that's about all I can think of at the moment. There's obviously a great deal more that I will miss, but there's also a great deal of things that I look forward to.
I can remind myself of the things I won't miss to alleviate my anxiety, but at the end of the day though I may be nervous, I would never pass up something like this.
Less than three months.
