make new friends and be a better friend to those who put up with me

I got together w/ an aquaintance for a movie and me and my Ohio friend chatted for about two hours on Sunday.

I talked w/ my close friend this weekend, and an expat has emailed me about getting together. But I have two pages of emails to get back to at the moment, so I could be doing better.

Phew! I replied to two pages of emails and it’s taken almost all day. But I’m down to one page now! Oh I just hope no one replies yet!!

I replied to three REALLY old emails finally. Now I need to make some long-overdue phone calls.

I need to do better at making phone calls back home, keeping track of special occasions and sending cards, and making the effort to get together with the people at church and to meet some American expats. Next Tuesday is an expat meetup in Chester and I’m going to try to attend.
