From Golden State to Georgia Peach; Part Two
Have you ever gone to a party and saw a distant acquaintance or family member? Going to the store in Georgia is like that. My Iowa friends and family will know why this is necessary, but my California people will be highly confused. People casually walk over to you and grasp at anything they see or can vaguely remember about you to start up a conversation. Next thing you know, you just told this person why you went to the doctor last week or why your Aunt May left your Uncle Bob after 20 years. (This really didn't happen in my family).

From Golden State to Georgia Peach; Part One
Moving cross country for the second time. Not sure if this one counts the same as the last because 1. It wasn't technically all the way across, it was halfway the first time (Iowa to California) and 2. I was only 17 and I was looking forward to it.
