 God Please Put a Plane Ticket Ecuador in My PO. I fumbled through the day's junk mail crumpled bookstore bills and sticky contact solution in search of my keys. I opened the door to my Fountain Terrace apartment hesitantly, as a stranger, uncertain of welcome. The misplaced corner cactus seemed to understand my uneasiness, yet it mocked my mood. You don't belong here either, do you? I looked at the makeshift crate bookshelf, held together with a volume of Shakespeare’s Complete Works and the glass home of two half dead goldfish, it didn't fit either. The bits dnd pieces of home failed to convince me that I was indeed home. Even my warm Indian blanket, which partially camouflaged the unmatched furniture, refused to comfort me. I stumbled to my room, longing for the green jungle of plants and South American v all hanging to reassure me. You just don't get homesick when you're a junior in college. I had paid Bethel S4.198 to sit on an unvacuumed carpet and cry. It sort of reminded me of the twenty dolldr cldy fee I paid to spend frustrating hours making mud pies or modern art, while others gracefully created masterpieces worthy of the T.A.'s priase. I wondered if Jesus had ever been homesick I prayed, lord, could you please put a plane ticket to Ecuador in my P.O. like you did with my lost food card that one time? Yes. Jesus. I know this world is not my home, but I'm really sick of this drab parking lot view. Couldn't you at least raise up a few eighteen-thousand foot mountains to replace the freeway? You'll give me comfort and peace insteaa? Thanks, lord. Carolyn Olson Lori Swanscn
