Japanese Garden and last week

Well, it's officially my last full week here. Hard to believe. Really hard, actually. I'm trying to see everything I missed before I go. Sara and I went to the Japanese Garden on Sunday, then San Telmo. It was really a beautiful day and surprisingly warm.
The events at the garden on Sunday were cool...there were some dancers with drums and the garden was really pretty. We had some sushi afterwards at the restaurant there, which was a little pricey, but delicious. It made me want to travel more and visit some other places to see other beautiful traditions and cultures. I'm more open to embrace my Korean heritage now because I'm older and don't feel so weird about being "different." Differences are what make things less boring, afterall.
San Telmo was booming, as usual for a Sunday. The markets begin to all look the same after awhile because they tend to sell the same stuff, but it's all really cool stuff that you would never see at home, so I don't feel so bad buying gifts.
LIFE today was good. It was also good on Saturday. I am beginning to feel really bad about having to leave the children. They are all so sweet and adorable. We did three-legged races today in the field. They really loved it! On Saturday, we made them dinner. I made the same dinner for myself tonight.
I'm planning to see the Evita museum and MALBA and also (finally) the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo. Hopefully I can get to all of it before I go! I took Thursday off from volunteering so that I have one free day this week, and I'll also have Sunday and Monday. Tuesday I have to return my phone to GIC and pack! Then I need to leave for the airport by 6 to catch my flight home! I can't believe how fast it's all happening.
Tomorrow night is another wine tasting glass at the GIC office and I'll probably go out once more (nightlife-out) before I leave.
And well, that's about it for now! See you all soon!
