Kyrgyzstan Randomness:
- snow doesn’t keep animals from eating the grass, they somehow seem to find it
- I am now considered a Kyrgyz girl because of my new Kyrgyz winter hat and coat
- sometimes, at night, with the moon shining on our barren trees it reminds me of some weird, twisted scary place that would be put in a movie
- a bucket full of snow makes very little water
- dogs will fight for no apparent reasons
- my room is very toasty
- hygiene is the first thing to go in winter
- holidays are a good time for food
- my language has gotten loads better, although I still can’t say a lot
- I can now be funny in Kyrgyz!
- sometimes culture and culture practices are not understood
- I don’t remember children’s names
- I have the hardest time understanding schoolchildren, especially the ones who get louder and talk faster when you ask them to talk slower
- people here love to dance and have their picture taken
- the internet is precious
- traveling is a hassle
- no matter their way of life people have amazing ideas and are very insinuative

Random things are always those that impress someone the most. You are getting your feel of those.
Great thought and outlook.
