More time keeping...
One day, 18 hours, and 48 minutes left as I type this sentence.

Yes, I know I'm being obsessive over the time keeping.
But it's sort of hard not to be obsessive when you can't even share the excitement.

Me: "My interviews for the foreign exchange program are this Saturday!"
Friend: "... What's a foreign exchange program?" (I've explained this several times to this friend.)
Me: "If I get accepted I'd go live in a foreign country for a year with a host family."
Friend: "So you're going to stay in a hotel in Japan for, like, a year?!"
Me: "... Host. Family."
Friend: "..."
Me: "I'd live with host families for the year."
Friend: "Ugh, so you'll be living with some strangers?"
Me: "Yeah."
Friend: "Aren't you scared that they'll, like, rape you or something?"

Yeah... Not all of the conversations are that amusing, but just frusterating because nobody here knows what a foreign exchange program is. Gotta love Kansas.
