So I think that what everyone is calling culture shock just hit me. Its not that I'm really shocked but I just have this intense feeling of wanting to go home where everything is how I know it. I've been told that the homesickness passes and I sure hope that it does.

I have to say that I'm not surprised that its hitting me today since this has been the only down day I've really had since I got here. With nothing to keep me busy I've just been sitting at home surfing the internet and listening to the tv that makes no sense to me. The hose has also been rather empty today, so for the majority of the day its just been me and the kitty.

The thing that's really killing me I think is the time difference, I've been up for 8 hours (Yes I know I woke up quite late but it was because they took us out last night and i didn't get home until 2am), and people who I would be talking to online are just now waking up.

I'm really hoping that this feeling will pass soon.
