It is funny how everything you love can be everything you hate at the same time. I really love the cultural differences and how I have learned to adapt to another lifestyle. I think a common misconception about studying abroad is that you either hate or love your country and your experience. I have learned that I love balance. I do enjoy walking everywhere but I miss my car. I wish there were more options to have better public transportation in Dallas and that I could pick between both instead of just driving. I also enjoy the wonderful benefits of conserving resources such as light, electricity, and water. Although I wish that the hot water was always on instead of having to turn the gas on or maybe I could take a shower longer then 15 minutes. I must say I do enjoy the accessibility of recycling. Here in Seville there are always bins right in front of your face so recycling is so easy to do here. In the states it often hard to harder to recycle if you live in an apartment or live outside of the pick up zone. We had bin at Tech but there was that conspiracy about it just being in appearance and they really threw the recycling in the trash! I really like olive oil it 's good for you but, what about variety I like corn oil too! Siestas are nice but what if I wanted a yellow double-sided highlighter between the hours of 2-6pm not a possibility here. I love how at home I can run in to a store open 24hrs a day whenever I want. The first thing I will do that first week I return home will be to go to my favorite stores between the hours of 2-6pm. I love Spain and hate Spain it all at the same time. I am grateful for this experience and will miss it dearly... but, I will be the person to offer to drive when get back to the states!
