LAST NIGHT.

Well, it's my last night here and I don't want to go to bed because then my last night here will officially be over. I'm ready to go home...I miss my family and friends back at home, but I just wish there was some way to know that I can come back soon. It's really hard to say goodbye. I said goodbye to Laura and Vicky tonight and I almost cried because it just sucks that they came so late in my trip and that Laura and I ended up hitting it off so well. I'll have to say bye to Tati tomorrow. And then the hardest part of all, going to the airport with all my stuff and flying away.
Yesterday was nice, so I went to the Botanical Garden and then at night we went to go see "La bomba del tiempo" play. They are one of the bands that played during the avenida 9 de julio concert in May. They're like african style drummers...so cool. It was good fun. Tonight I went to the last wine tasting at GIC and said bye to the people in the office.
I don't know what else to say. I'm all packed up and ready to go (my luggage is bursting). All I have to do tomorrow is pack up the final things and call a cab and go.
I know there will be plenty of tears tomorrow, but tonight, I think I'm just in shock still that it's over. It hasn't sunk in yet. I think I accomplished all the goals that I had before I came here. My spanish could still use work, but it definitely improved and that's good enough for me. I'm a lot happier of a person now. I see things from a sunnier perspective. And I'm excited to get back to a tough semester at Pitt. It's also nice to have all these new friends from all over the world. I never thought that studying abroad would have done all this for me, but it has. It seems like it just started. I wonder what will happen next...
This chapter of my life is now closed.
