Emotional Breakdowns
Funnily enough since when I have arrived in Egypt i have done nothing but feel extreem emotions. One day i am extreemly happy, in a very good mood and the next day i am totally down, practially in tears, or rather doing my best to hold my tears back!!!!!
I was thinking about it and wondering why these sudden breakouts, which have been happening very often lately and as often as a different mood every day!!! Mind you they are extreemly tiring!!!! Do you reckon there are good psychatrists here in egypt????? Geraldine, i think this is when i really need your help!!!!
I guess culture shock is finally creeping in!!!! The excitement of being in a new country makes me happy, but the inefficiency of AIESEC makes me cry!!!! Not knowing where i will be living next week brings tears in my eyes, and makes me miss Belgium even more, i did not realise that i will actually miss that country, and i am not missing it cause i am now living in a 3rd world country, but i am missing the people, more than i thought i would, and i am missing my dearest Grand Place, ok enough now, cause i am going to start crying again, and i don't feel like going into my class with red eyes again! Then i am happy because my students are sooo nice and people at work are extreemly nice and caring - i also miss being in AIESEC a bit. I guess this is the hardest part, while everyone is at IC, and you are stuck here, remembering the good times you had in all your ICs and now you are starting a new life!!!! Another think totally upsets me is the thing that i am probably not used to having a boss, and i am used to being my own boss. Now i have to report to someone and depend on someone to get permission which is sooo bloody frustrating!!!! I am hoping that at least by the end of summer i would have settled a bit, and bit a bit better in the country! maybe with less emotional breakdowns!! ;)
Hopefully next week i get a new house to live in!!! Not nicer than the one i already have, but it is on the 9th floor with a nice view and a massive balcony!!
