California:

The ocean || I see the sunrise over it every morning on the way to work and it almost makes getting up at 5 am worth it. Almost.
“May your joys be as deep as the ocean, your sorrows as light as its foam.”

My family || I love them, I admit it
“There is no vocabulary
For the love within a family, love that’s lived in
But not looked at, love within which
All else is seen, the love within which
All other loves find speech.
This love is silent.” T.S. Eliot

My job || more often than not
“Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.” President Gordon B. Hinckley

Sunshine || I love a snow free winter (the previously mentioned snow in the mountains does not count.)
“What fire could ever equal the sunshine of a winter’s day?” Henry David Thoreau

My dog || She’s the cutest thing in the whole world.com – I should have pictures of her but I don’t.
“We long for an affection altogether ignorant of our faults. Heaven has accorded this to us in the uncritical canine attachment.” George Eliot

Utah:

My friends || I love them, I admit it.
“You do not know how much they mean to me, my friends, and how, how rare and strange it is, to find in a life composed so much of odds and ends… to find a friend who has these qualities, who has, and gives those qualities upon which friendship lives. How much it means that I say this to you -without these friendships – life, what cauchemar!” T.S. Elliot

Cafe Rio || Yes, I miss their salads, don’t judge me.
“Three things are needed for a good life, good friends, good food, and good song.” Jason Zebehazy

101.9 The End || Chunga and Mister have ruined me… I will never be satisfied with any other station again.
Um, I don’t have any good Chunga and Mister quotes but I just found out (while I should be finishing a project for school) that Mister’s contract wasn’t renewed and it’s now the Chunga show. I feel lost and confused.

My friends || I really love them.
“Life is nothing without friendship.” Marcus Tullius Cicero

The mountains || Just cause.
“Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.” John Muir

Temples || They’re everywhere and so convenient. Utahns are spoiled… in a good way.
“There are only a few places on earth where man’s questions about life receive the answers of eternity.” Gordon B Hinckley

So it’s pretty much a toss up.
