Culture Shock

So, I am finally home. Home sweet home, graffiti and all. I miss my girls and I miss being abroad. I miss not understanding things and being uncomfortable (and I am not being sarcastic either). I really miss traveling. If any of you have read the Celestine Prophecy you will understand what I mean when I say that I feel as though I have evolved. I feel like I have change and that my perspective of life has changed. I know it was only a six week trip but a lot of people will never really get the chance to travel and I was fortunate and blessed enough to have done it and LOVED it!

Being back home means facing your personal demons. It also means that you need figure out once again what your heart desires. I fear that I am going to loose this new found fire that is in my heart (as cheesy as that sounds). In any case, I am having major culture shock. Things are just different now. Everyone here in the states seems to be going so fast. Everyone is racing their way through only there is no finish line. It is wierd how I notice that now since I think I was going at the same pace before. Also, I was so used to hearing spanish or not understanding at all so hearing English and understanding was really strange at first. Plus now I am home in a little house with my parents and brothers so it is hard re adjusting to seeing their faces every minute that I am home. Dont get me wrong. I LOVE THEM but it is a small space and I have been so carefree the last six weeks that getting back and being concious of others in my space is hard. I miss my girls too! Arlene is in Hawaii with her man and Aline is in Bs.As. livin it up!

I feel so boring now!
