4 months in a new country

Its been about 4 months so far and its just been, uneventful lol. of course things like seeing relatives I haven't seen in awhile or haven't even met before, pretty usual, Christmas and new years happened which was very chaotic but it was a fun time. I often feel so out of place here as if it isn't my motherland. But its getting better I guess, I'm still in the city so things are pretty regular and not too out of my comfort zone but in a month ill be in the province and have to get used to not having a mall near me, i don't know ANYBODY and overall its just been a little lonely.

I swear the church we attend to in the province is so cult like it honestly freaks me out, considering the fact that a foreign missionary made the church and made the church where you'd have to hike a little just to get there, which to me is such an awful spot to put a church because what if the person wanting to go there can't walk up the hill either from old age or disability? seems like they only put it there too see who's more worthy for "god" but other than that the province isn't so bad.

Once I learn how to drive it'll be more of a smooth sailing from here, just need to get better at the language and I'm set! also have to be prepared for the next school year. having been online schooling for 7 years can really take a toll on your social skills and study habits. so I hope I don't get too stressed/depressed once it all starts crashing onto me. ill update whenever and see how it goes :P
