Homesickness hits....hard

Wow, it took nearly two months for homesickness to hit but it finally hit me this week...I like hanging out with my friends and family in the states. Exploring cities and meeting new people is wonderful, but sometimes you just long to talk to people that you understand and understand you. Marburg has been my primary destination for several weeks now. When I arrived, part of me hoped to make friends quickly and find people to hang out with. I've found one or two people to talk to, but no one that I can call up and say...hey lets go for a picnic today. Making true friends takes time, and I don't have much of that left. So I'm stuck with two choices, try really really hard to make friends that I will only know for 3 more weeks...or just float through the rest of the period with casual acquitances....I'll probably try a mix of the two.

Part of my problem is that I'm not stable on weekends. I also travel to some excited radical state where I hang out with other radicals. However, I don't linger long enough to make long lasting bonds. :-)

sorry...bad chemistry joke

Anyways...I wanted to write more here but the bus got in the way. Instead, I must head off
to catch the bus...I have much to write about ...and lots of experiences to share...perhaps I will catch up on the bus.

Tchuss!

Charity, how was your week? Did you do anything for the 4th?

bad joke, it wasn't really a joke, a relationship is called a bond. Now if a bond required time to grow like a covalent bond then you could have used that term. Then it would have been a geeky term. And you call yourself a geek. Light-weight.
