So you just had the best semester of your life. You probably traveled, met a ton of worldly new friends and (if you did study abroad right) upped your alcohol tolerance. But what happens when you get back? Here's a list of 12 things that happen the first week after you step foot back on American soil.
1. You Forget How To Use Basic Items
Why are our light switches so weird in America?
2. Driving A Car Feels Weird
3. You Start Thinking About How You Can Get Back To The Place You Studied Abroad
Should you teach English abroad when you graduate?
4. You're Not Quite Prepared For The Weather
It might've been 70° F in Sydney, but it's definitely not in December in Washington D.C.
5. Friendships Might Feel A Little Different
You've changed a lot in the past 4 months. Sometimes, it's difficult to pick up right where you left off.
6. But Some Feel Exactly The Same
Other times, it's ridiculously easy for things to fall back into place.
