I'd have to deal with this new environment with possibly no one to turn to. ==>__>== But yeah thank god for the internet though. You know how I am socially so hopefully I'd be able to put myself in a nice clique to hang out with. ==<__>== I really don't fancy it having lived in like an average of 33 C all my life.

You're gonna be so busy setting everything up the first few days you won't even have time to think about being homesick. Plus you still can chat with people online, so it's not like you'll never hear from your buddies ever again. This is sorta different than backpacking through Laos because it's more permanent and you won't be moving around as much. You're gonna meet tons of cool new people and you'll wind up falling into a whole new routine of things that aren't life-changing. Your Melbournian Okami, if you will. =p And I won't lie - every time I hear you worry about the weather I think of the fact that our winters average below 5 C and I can't help but crack a smile. ^__^ Baby you’re gonna do great, I know it.
