Miluwakee memories...

Ok, so its been a good 4 months since I moved from MKE to SFO. Having settled down, here are a few things i miss most from MKE.

1. My group of friends: I had an incredible set of friends over in MKE and I miss them the most. The mix includes a best friend I've known for around 17 years, football enthusiasts, throw in a crazy bunch of party animals! yes animals haha.. mixed together with my work buddies make a wonderful recipe for 'trouble': always resulting in good memories!

2. The end of summer camping trip: For the last 2 years we've been doing this camping trip just before the end of summer. Ironically, its been on the exact same days as the previous year. The trip has always been fun: pitch up the tent, spike the bbq, get drunk, sing till you drop, play some games, take plenty of pics, good laughs and memories

3. Summer soccer: I'm sure I'll sign up for soccer here as well, but its not going to be the same. We started it just last year, and it was interesting to see our fitness levels rise. Initially we could just survive 5 mins a half lol and towards the end we managed to make it through the entire hour. 

4. Sri Lankaness!: Yes I said it. It was nice to spend time with the Sri Lankans. Enjoying a home cooked rice and curry over conversations about how much our work sucks! Getting tangled up in other people's domestic issues. Typically Sri Lankan! Lol... (well... on second thoughts maybe I dont miss this one that much)

5. Street races - Our Sunday morning street races on the 794. A stretch of road that is pretty much a deserted bridge. We've hit almost 150mph+ on that 1 mile stretch. Although that adrenalin rush does tend to live on in you, which resulted in me getting a couple of speeding tickets, I have no regrets.

6.  Suite, Whiskey Bar, Notte and the gang: Our local watering holes. Good friends, good drinks, plenty of forgetful memories.

7. Ghost Recon: Our many online gaming nights: Maybe we can continue that here as well. I just need to get myself an XBox360

8. Pizza hut, Chinese and Thai take away : I'm not sure why I have it here 'cause you get plenty of that here as well. These were my fall back options whenever i was too lazy to cook.. and that happened a lot so i guess it fittingly is on my list.

There you go. The top 8 things I miss most about Milwaukee!
