Not looking forward to...

• turning down beggars (if only there were no limits to giving)
• bartering at the market
• the mosquitoes, giant cockroaches, rats, and other pests
• blackouts
• being far away from Seattle family and friends
• feeling like you have to shower all the time, even after you have just showered (temperature ranges from low 70's to high 90's)
• losing intimacy with close friends (which tends to happen with distance *sigh*)
