so....was born in falls church, VA, moved to plano, TX when i was 2, moved to london, england when i was 3, moved back to TX when i was 6, moved to zurich, switzerland when i was 14, moved to NC for college when i was 18, studied in sydney, australia for a semester, back to TX when i was 22, and now finally to seattle, WA. my family moved because of my dad's job -- and i had so much bitterness about that when i was 14! i missed the US like nobody's business (what about homecoming! what about football! -- nevermind the alps)...and now my parents are settled in texas and all i want is for them to go scampering around the globe again so i can follow. seattle is the first place that has ever really felt like "home," and it's the only place i've moved to completely out of my own volition. i'm coming up on three years now and currently planning a move to a part of seattle that is completely foreign to me just so that i can explore a new place without having to leave seattle. i adore seattle and yet already it's starting to feel too small. i'm starting to get the itch....

facebook is judging my identity!

has anyone else noticed how uncool it is that we now have to choose a hometown on our facebook profiles? before they made the change, i happily proclaimed that i was from plano, london, zurich, charlotte, sydney, and seattle. now if i enter all of that an error message appears that says “no matches found.”

and so i leave it blank. which i suppose is appropriate, since i don’t think i really do have a hometown. but not having one seems so much more sad and lonely than having many, does it not?
