Well I am on zanga…but have not been writing for various reasons. I don’t currently own a computer so I have not had much time to play around on Vox…but I AM trying as I sit here in texas!
Life here in texas is very different than california, it is much more slower paced and it seems that people are much more welcoming. Is this the case? Are people just people no matter where they are? I understand that cultures are very different. I have ran into many people who don’t care at all about you and others who care alot. For example the first day that we got to my parents, we had people who lived on both sides of them come up and introduce themselves and ask if they could make us anything while we unloaded the big truck. Wow…that has never been done to me before in california, worst of all…. I have never done that to anyone that has moved in by me before either.
It was a realization, that I get so engrained with what my culture says to do and do not even step out sometimes. But then I ask…do those moving in really want me the little girl next door to come over and actually speak to them? Or am I breaking thier bubble? Do you just do it anyways and hope for the best?
