While chatting with her friend Charlotte, Lindsay remembers the last time she visited her family in Houston. It was a long time ago and she misses her hometown a little. Sometimes she misses the hustle and bustle1 of a big city, its diversity, and real BBQs. She is considering going to college in Houston, as the city offers a great variety of educational opportunities.

1"hustle and bustle" means "busy and noisy activity, confusion"
