Home again. Tired and happy. Somehow the journey back home always seems much longer. I do like trains and traveling, but today it was hard to come back to an empty home, knowing I only have one day left of summer. The weather turned autumnal while I was in Jyväskylä. I kind of liked how it felt, but a part of me still wants to hang on to the summer and freedom and boredom and everything. I still think summer is officially over when school begins. And it's been years since I last went to school after a summer vacation. My courses won't start until in September, but there's going to be a lot happening in the coming weeks anyway. Everything changes, and to be honest, it really scares me. I'm tired of everything changing. I want things to stay the way they are, the way they're supposed to be. Maybe with the exception of me doing something worthwhile with my time.
