I got my first piece of mail today. A small photo album from my mom. It was absolutely perfect with photos of the family, my close friends, sunny, and brandon. I will admit I got teary eyed when I first looked over it but then it made me laugh when I realized the pictures my mom put in there. Like her and Sandy in bathrobes singing the "sister" song, or Tommy and James doing the "Chandler" face, and Mandy and I with daisies in our mouths.
My roommate is here, she is also passionate about volunteering, doesn't drink, and is very friendly. I am really excited about rooming with her. She is getting her master's in Humanitarian Assistance. Unfortunately that isn't offered in the state's.
So far I have met people from over 10 different nationalities all living in the same house as me: China, Korea, Estonia, New Zealand, Brazil, Canada, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, Austria, Poland...I think there is a couple more but I forgot. Everyone speaks english, which I am thankful for.
