  1. I miss my mom most of all.

  2. I miss our house we grew up in.

  3. I miss roller skating (there's no way I'd try it now because it's been way too long!)

  4. I miss our neighborhood and all of our friends we grew up with.

  5. I miss those summer days when we'd go to our friends house and swim in the pool or go down to the creek and swim.

  6. I miss hanging out with my best friends and all of our sleepovers we had (which between the three of us, it was nearly an every weekend thing!)

  7. Going to our school football games ... I mean, that's not saying I couldn't go now (well, "my" high school games I couldn't because I'd have no way to get to them) but even if I could, it wouldn't be the same now that I'm not a teenager anymore if that makes any sense?

  8. I miss Sunday dinners when our whole family was together (including my uncle, aunt and their kids as well.)

  9. I miss not having to have a lot of responsibilities like those being an adults have.

  10. I miss playing with the neighbor kids and our football and baseball games out in our field. Such fun!

  1. I miss school holidays. Especially 6 weeks of summer holidays and you have to prepare absolutely nothing for school.

  2. I miss just ringing at my friends door and ask if they want to come out and play with me without making an appointment weeks before.

  3. I miss that appointments were made for me and I did not have to take care of my families and my own appointments.

  4. I miss comming home from school and watch an episode of my favourite cartoon while enjoing the lunch my mother made for me.

  5. I miss that I did not have to cook and clean the appartment for my own birthday party.

  6. I miss some foods that I enjoyed in my childhood that can not be found in the stores here anymore like Lunchables, Frufos (chocolates filled with a type of fruity yoghurt), Sky ice cream, the original Kinder Happy Hippo and some more.

  7. I miss spending summer at my grandparents house, listening to their stories, playing in the garden and enjoying the fruits and veggies growing in there.

  8. I miss all the family members I had around me that are not with us anymore.

  9. I miss my mother taking care of me when I am ill and that you could take all the time you need to recover without feeling the responsibility to go back to work as soon as possible.

  10. I miss the excitment I had on Christmas, New Year or Easter as a kid. Now that you have to make all the plans, cook, clean, by gifts all by yourself it feels more like stress not like fun.
