HOME TO HOME (CONTINUED)

The next morning, my friends and I decided to hang out before I left to go home (my Taiwan home). We walked around town and had good conversation. The friends that I made here in Taiwan mostly live very far from me, only one lives in my town. Sometimes, it sucks but, if I had to choose between having a social life and living close to the beach, I’d choose living close to the beach. We have technology to keep in touch. 
To rewind a little bit: On my way to Taipei, to go to the States, I stopped at my favorite vegan restaurant. It’s a great place, and the owner is very friendly. On my way to the airport, I realized that I left something important at the restaraunt, two bracelets which were a gift from my mother. Any gift from my mother is important to me. I contacted the owner and informed him of this news. He knew I was going to the US for two weeks. He said I can pick them up when I get back, and I did just that.
My friends knew that I had to get something before I had to leave. They always ride with me to the train station when I visit. As usual, I was in a rush to get my bracelets then get on the next train or else, I would’ve been stuck in Taipei. I ran a couple blocks to go to the restaurant, got my bracelets, and eventually met up with my friends on the same train in less than 10 minutes. It was hilarious how we met. Apparently when I returned to the station, they saw me but I couldn’t see them. They also had my suitcase. As my lost self wanders in the Taipei subway station, they call me and tell me to get on the train, so I get on, thinking they would take thae next train, but I go to the other car and there they are. One friend was mad that I did all that I did just for two bracelets, but they’re from my mom. I should’ve been more responsible. I just made it on time for my train, to go home (my Taiwan home).
