Day 45...

I remember what talking on the phone is like... the calling of the boy that you have that slight crush on - the pure communication - personal rather than taking the easy way - the texts.  It's funny how times change - how we became a society of text messaging - how my social circle back home was a myriad of snippets, making plans, confirming, sharing.  But here - it's all about the phone calls.  The conversations.  I must admit, it's taken me a little time to get used to - more often than not I avoid picking up - am taken aback - a little timid.  But I'm changing - slowly.  Taking those chances, sharing those words - full on sentences, unlimited characters.  It makes me smile.
