September 2009- Onwards
Round 2: The culture shock I faced was no less than before. My life style was being re-established again. When I arrived I got an extra 2 weeks off due to the H1N1 scare. This time was spent learning about my new neighbourhood, later on way in the future I will realize how much I will miss this era of my life and all that was associated with it.
Culture shock after lasted about 3-4 months. Life was becoming ummm...simpler. I was making new friends finding out what there was to do in this foreign city. Learning to take the bus, the language and where to eat. You might think that these things were easy to incorporate into daily life but it takes time to become adjusted.
I have now I have a soft spot in my heart for Jilin.
