We made it back to Visthar last night around 11:30. It was so strange coming back here. The last time I was at the Bangalore Airport was on August 30th. That was the day we first got to India. I remember being so confused about everything. The driver was on the wrong side of the bus and we were driving down the wrong side of the road. I was so curious about everything that was going on outside of the window and I wondered how I was going to learn everything about this country in 4 months. I had so many questions and no one to direct them to. I wonder if my mouth was hanging wide open the entire way to Visthar the first time. This time the drive was different. I found myself smiling about everything around me. I smiled because I felt a huge sense of pride in myself. India has been hard but I have finally figured out a few things. I still get surprised by some of the situations I end up in but now I feel like I can actually face them. I still have a lot left to do in India but I think that I will be able to face this challenging week head on. I didn’t make it this far just to give up. I have an awesome final project to do and I think that will be more fun than work anyway. I’ve got to get back to work.
