Homesickness
This morning I got to talk to and see my nephew through the magic of Google talk, MSN and webcams and I got a feeling of homesickness. I've been thinking of what I will do when I go back and right now, I've, well I've got no clue really what I'll be doing, but I think it will be good to be back. I'm not taking for granted the fact that I'm getting paid to live half way around the world, but I'm starting to miss family and friends (and hockey at night time instead of waking up at 9 in the morning to listen to a Leafs game).
I've hit the 1/3 mark and when you look at it, in two months I'll have hit the halfway mark, then in two more it'll be 2/3 then 3/4 then 5/6 then 1/12 and then I'll be on my way home! Time certainly flies around here. But I guess that means I'm having fun eh? :)

Oh poor baby! It must be tough work waking up at 9am just to watch a hockey game! :P
Jenn--that's all the sympathy you have for a fellow ESL teacher?
Mumsy darling, I get up at 6am. I sympathize with the homesickness, definitely. the part about having to wake up at 9am to watch a hockey game? not so much. sorry bro.
No one understands my troubles :(
Jennsy darling, I understand totally!
And just know, David--we really do understand how frustrating it must be to wakeup at that unearthly hour to watch TV! :-)
My goodness this family is funny!
