Reverse Culture Shock

…is going to suck. I am already dreading it. I still have at least 8 weeks in Russia. I just know it’s going to suck so bad. I also don’t really know if I ever had “forward” culture shock. I can think of some days in September and October when I was sort of not totally cheery, but there was never a string of days when I just wanted to go home. Also the days when I was sort of miserable where always when it was raining and you are allowed a lot more misery than usual when it is raining. I think I should stop worrying about culture shock into America and enjoy the rest of my time in Russia.

Less than 2 weeks left in Yaroslavl. I have sort of accepted my departure-ness. Also, Margarita and I have lately been getting along like BFF’s (best friend’s forever). I’m not sure if this is because I’m leaving in two weeks or if we actually have sort of figured each other out enough that there is now some level of friendship, acceptance, compatibility-ness.

(This post was also abandoned becuase it was me talking about my new BFF Margarita and I couldn't take myself seriously.)
