I don't know, it's just… I came here thinking, you know, fresh start, new people, I had a few good connections at first from my old job, but now it's like everyone just… faded. Not even a fight or anything, just, *poof*. The language thing, it’s a barrier, yeah, and my work schedule is brutal, always late, but still, I thought I’d be better at this. (Maybe I just suck at people?) And then my mom calls, always asking about my cousin, asking why I don’t visit him more, and I just… I can’t tell her I haven't seen him in months because I don’t really have any friends here anymore, only work, and her memory is getting worse anyway, so what’s the point?
