Dear John

Helene (my flatmate) and I went to see Dear John the other night. I’ve been quite excited to see it, mostly because I knew people who were extras in it and it was filmed at CofC and in other parts of Charleston. I was also quite proud to go to a movie in South Africa that was filmed where I am from. Anyway, it was probably one of the first things to make me truly homesick. Watching Savannah (Amanda Seyfried’s character) walk around CofC and all of the visits to the beach and walks around Charleston made me miss home and Charleston and my friends there. Oh yeah, and then there was that love story. Anyway, I’m trying to figure out if it is more that I miss being an undergrad at CofC or that I was really homesick.
