Dreamy reverie...

It's 23:46 and i'm curled up in bed listening to the crickets chirping outside and feeling really content. I've been here for little over two weeks, but despite this, I feel completely at ease and like this is home. It's strange and we were talking about it earlier but the friendship group we've formed feels like one we've had for years. I guess it's because we're all united in the same adventure and everyone is the same in just wanting to be somewhere new, and as a result of this, it seems that only by being out of our comfort zone are we in fact in it. I do miss home, of course, and at time I feel pretty stressed about the consistent testing we're getting put through in class but even this doesn't put me off. When it comes to work all I can do is try my hardest but at the same time embrace everything that comes with being a student here.  I miss a lot about home, family, friends, home comforts and vegetables (seriously, the American's just seem to cut this section of the food circle clean out of their diets) but even so I already know that, although I'll start to miss home soon and will look forward to going at home for Christmas, by the time January comes around i'll want to be back here but for now i'm just going to make the most of every second!
