The person I have become and can finally see. My experience has definitely changed me.
I find that I am more calm and less dramatic and worried about general life.
When I tickle, I am more gentle about it.
I happen to go for walks often, more so then I did before, and I think part of this is habit.
A lot has changed in me, and caring less about the things that don't matter and more attention on learning whatever I want.
I also realize that I am more giving. I am terrible when it comes to buying birthday gifts for my family and friends, but now I want to give them something. In Haiti, people are generally sharing people, as long as you pay a favor in return. They would share and switch sandals, exchange clothes, or buy a round for everyone. I think I was very stingy with my money, and my perspective is more laid back.
I've kind of lost excitement in my life. The next thing I have to look forward to is landing a job that I love, and right now I think it is going to be a lengthy progress. I like to spend all my free time going to the library and using their reading resources. I never imagined I would want to read the newspaper, but I am making it a habit. Sometimes I even read something about politics, because I think I should know it but it is not one of my interests. Once in a while I go into the children's section and read a few books and read them until I find one I like. It depends on the day, always.
Learning something new and interesting, that can be the excitement in my life.
