Things I will need to get used to upon returning to the States

Being around people taller than me

Not saying “lovely” and “nice” to describe everything that seems “lovely” or “nice”

Not hearing the word “cheers” throughout my day

Huge stores

Being forced to drive everywhere

Working

Scheduling time to see friends (rather than just knocking on their doors)

Scheduling…period.

Not having a cell phone (…maybe)
