7-month stay in US

Since the first day of August, 2013 I have stayed here in Cleveland, Ohio seeking doctoral degree.
Today is the first day of March, 2014 - the Independence Declaration Day of Korea.
I had thinked that there were exceptionally more issues or accidents in and out of South Korea during the 7-month period.
However today I feel the number of accidents is not disportionally larger.
I now think that there were exceptionally more concern or attention from me.
Because of outside presence of South Korea, I have payed more attention on every single issue compared to having less attention while I was inside presence of South Korea.
From now I on, I promise with myself that I will maintain the higher level of concern and attention wherever I live in the future.
I, as an extreme individualist, now become more patriotic on the first day of March.
