So you're moving to another country? What makes you most nervous? Worried that you won't be able to see your family? You might be afraid because you think you'll never be able to talk to your friends again. Or are you more worried about giving up all the nice things you had in the U.S.? I don't know what really scared me the most. I didn't worry about not being able to talk to my family and friends because I knew there were a lot of overseas calling cards out there. Even though it sounds silly, I was worried that I would miss the things I took for granted in the U.S. Some things, like my shampoo, have become familiar to me, and I would really rather not switch to a different one.
So, after all this worrying, I decided that I was a spoiled brat and that if my biggest worry was not having my shampoo, I should just get over it and go. Who cares if my hair hates me for a week or so while I change?
So I moved overseas, though I'm not sure if you can really call it that since I live in South America. Is it still over seas if you are in the same hemisphere and didn't have to cross a sea to get there? Okay, but that's not what I meant. I moved here because I thought the United States was the most advanced country in the world and the only place where I could find my favourite toiletries and foods. Well I am an idiot. I've told my parents more than once that I've been able to find almost everything I liked in the U.S. here, and that's how I'm living now. Because there are international calling cards, I can even talk to my friends.
