Plain And Simple

How do I start off this little letter? It's rather difficult, so I'll just dive right in:

I've only had regular contact with maybe three people back home. Three. That effing blows. I've attempted to contact a few more for skype dates, but nobody's gotten back to me. So either y'all have forgotten that I'm still alive, or, just like me, y'all just suck at communication.And we all know liking someone's status on Facebook or liking a picture on Instagram doesn't count.
So here's the thing: I'm feeling a little bit forgotten by everyone back home, specifically my church family. But this letter pertains to everyone. 

I've seen all my teammates on regular skype dates with family and friends back home, and getting cards and letters and care packages in the mail, and I'm just sitting here like, "Well, I guess they've all forgotten I'm still alive. Alright then." 

Another thing: I've been in constant transition since Cambodia. I still am. There are NO constant or steadfast friendships in my life right now. I'm not talking about with people back home, I'm talking about people here. That's the thing about starting completely over. You say goodbye to your life back home, and you form new relationships in your new home. But I don't have any yet. I have my teammates, but they're all leaving in June. And then it'll just turn into more people to skype. Yippee. And I know that it's going to take some time to get those solid people in my life. These things don't happen overnight. But while I'm waiting, it'd be nice to still know I'm thought of, or that I'm loved by those back home. So maybe instead of me always attempting to set up skype dates or always initiating the contact, it'd be nice if someone reached out to me for a change.

P.S. One of my favourite things are letters. My address is:
