My last month

As of today I only have 30 days left here and I'm ready to come home.

I was sad last week when I bought my ticket, and I'm sure I'll miss lots of things once I'm gone, but I want so badly to be around my family and friends again. I've had enough dance classes for a while, I'm tired of feeling crappy about not being a better spanish speaker, and I'm tired of spending whole days alone.

I want to drink coffee with my mom, laugh with my dad, shop with my sisters, take walks with Dylan, Charlie, Mark & Watney, paint with Bj, party with the Allahbakhshis, eat carne asada at Freeway, and to play music at the gypsy den. I still love my flamenco but I gave up so much to pursue it. Now I want the balance in my life restored.

So I'm going to start wrapping things up here - I'm going to start thinking about my year as a whole. I have lots of reflecting to do.

  1. Girl, you're so strong to have done all this and I love you for it! I'm a huge fan! Let us know what the result of your reflections is. You know that I of all people can surely use it. Un abrazo muy fuerte - XM

  2. Yes! Juan is sad I never go to the Den anymore. And I say "Just wait until Justine comes home and I will" and he says "I can't wait!"
