A few of us have said that we feel completely normal until we open our mouths. It's weird to be surrounded by a language you don't understand. I sit on the bus and I almost don't hear the chatter unless I focus on it because my brain has tuned it out already. Sometimes I try to listen for the words I know.
Did I mention the grocery store? I'm going to talk about it again because I like the grocery store and I hate the grocery store at the same time. Between understanding what I'm buying and standing around trying to convert things in my head I'm sure I look like an idiot. Karen said that we should make a little chart that has intervals like $5=, $10=, etc. Hopefully this will help me out a lot.
Mostly I'm glad that I'm settling in and will have a weekend to relax. Or explore, who knows.
