Tomorrow marks the second week of being at Glen Helen. I'm not messing up as much at work, and I'm starting to understand the Aussie accent a little more. I've started to form routines, and I feel closer to being in stride with this place. Friendships are forming. I've been working overtime, and so has my liver.
The thing about settling down and feeling more comfortable is that I have more time to think. I'm not concerned as much with the culture shock anymore, and other thoughts have taken over. I've started thinking about how much I miss my home. I don't mean that in the physical sense, but rather in the life I had there. I didn't have much time to miss it before, but now I'm feeling it.
I'm making this sound much more sorrowful than it actually is. I'm having an absolute blast out here! I miss many things, but being here is worth it. I dread the day my visa runs out and I'm forced to leave this country.
