Today's Quote--"I am a Turtle."--Me
There are phone calls I need to make. I should get out and see people. But all I want to do is stay in, watch a little TV, read a few books, eat, and sleep. I feel bad because I'm kinda blowing off all my friends...but I've just begun to realize how close it is until I'm off to Japan, and I'm scared.
Yeah, yeah, I'm excited about going off and learning and meeting new people and all that jazz. But I get homesick just thinking about it. I have a hard enough time being 1,000 miles away, calling home every day, and being surrounded by friends, all in the same country...but going off to another country over 3,000 miles away, where I may be able to have a short "Hi" call to home once a week (though if my dad has any say, more like once a month), and in a completely alien environment...it's disconcerting to say the least.
I know, I whine too much. But it doesn't make that little bug of fear, or discomfort go away. And as with too many things in my life, I'm just putting it on the back burner. "I'll think about it later" But I guess that just isn't enough. Oh well...whatever. I'm going. If I ever get my student visa, that is...OY!
