May Flowers?
Well like I have been saying, time just keeps flying by. Last time I wrote I had 30 something days left. Well now I'm down to 19. Can you believe that. Less than 3 weeks. Now that time is getting closer I am really getting upset. I thought I was so excited to go home. To just get out of this place. But in reality this place has become home. I have made so many friends and done so much here that it is really starting to hit me that in less than 3 weeks it will all be over.
I am filled with mixed emotions. I am happy to go home, play sports, eat friendlys, and see the family. However, I am going to miss the parties, my host parents, my new friends, my life. I know that each day I get more upset that I have to go home. Here I have built a life, it's a lot easier to build a new one, than it is to go back to an old one and see everything has changed. I have seen so much just change on facebook and it scares me. I feel like I will crawl into my shell and never come out. Yet, I look forward to the challenge, and look forward to the next chapter in my life. You must take it all in stride.
I have a friend here whios name is Jose Roberto. He lives in Maryland, but is from Loja. He came back yesterday to visit. He is planning on leaving with me June 1st and staying in Boston with me for a while. Hopefully, his cousin Juan will come with us too. It would be so much fun and I would love for them to meet my family and everything too.
So even though the time is flying I haven't really been doing all that much. I have done a lot of last minute shopping. Picking up gifts and what not. Trying to see how I will pack everything. It will be tough, but it will get done. I also have been just hanging around in class and what not. Same old story. Yet, I only have 10 days left of classes!!! wooohoo.
I met this guy back in February, but am just now starting to hang out with him. He is such a sweetheart and I am really enjoying spending time with him. It is nice to still at this point in my trip, be meeting some incredible people. Luckily hes awesome and I get to spend my last few weeks with him.
Finally, last week we had our English play. It was awesome. It was Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs, but a very dirty Version. Everyone really had a great time. I was so proud of how well everyone did. Plus, I got plenty of pictures!!! Always important. Take lots of pictures in life.
Plans for the next 3 weeks: Friday Russian Ballet, Despedida, Vilca.
I should be writing soon.
