This little piggy went wee-wee-wee...

....All the way home...


I can't believe it's been a month since I left Jordan. Actually it really just hit me that it's literally been a month since I flew out of Amman.

The Europe and Middle East SALTers
I spent the first week in the States with other SALTers at MCC headquarters. It was a great time to relax and reflect with people who had just gone through similar experiences. And it definitely helped with culture shock, since I was able to slowly adjust to the US life. My parents brought me home at the end of the week, and I promptly was dragged wedding dress shopping with my sister. We didn't find a dress that day, but she has since picked one! And I have also found my maid-of-honor dress as well.

Visited Friends in DC
Things have been pretty hectic, between trying to see my friends, figuring out what I have and don't have anymore, doctors appointments... and generally preparing for my next MCC term.

Oh, did I forget to mention that I got a job? I'm starting a new international term of service with MCC. If you want to hear more about it, and follow my adventures, check out my new blog Peace, Pabulums, and Phnom Pehn.
