I have officially made it to the flip side. Now that South Carolina is out of the way EVERYTHING is Chile oriented. Even at work. It's all I talk about nowadays. A week from Thursday! AHHHH. Soon it will be THIS Thursday. AHHH. Fortunately my Dad just happens to be flying out to Montana the same time as me. As a result he can help me check in and get all my bags ready and what not. That'll take a little stress off. It's not that I can't do it on my own, it's just easier this way.
I feel like I haven't been at work in forever. It's funny, I came in this morning and there was a girl at the desk that I didn't know. Have I been gone that long?? It turns out that she's my replacement. It's kind of craaaazy. And I'm in charge of training her. I feel like an evil dictator training my evil apprentice. Muahaha. Thankfully she's really nice. ANNNND thankfully it's spring break here at Wayne so there are NO students and everything is super quiet. Me gusta mucho.
Tomorrow is Chicago day. I'm kind of apprehensive about that since I'm not exactly sure what I need to bring and I will be faced with having to talk to someone in Spanish in PERSON with my father as a witness. Sounds like we are going to be driving. I have been driving SO much lately. I just want my Visa. And my pre-departure pack that I MIGHT be getting this afternoon (cross your dedos).
Oh yeah, South Carolina. That was good. It wasn't tooooooo warm but there was lots of sun and a beach. Sarah and I mostly played vball on the beach seeing as how it was a tad bit cold for laying out. Then we'd go in the hot tub. My FAVORITE part of the week was going back to Columbia. Sarah had to sit in on a session of court (actually kind of interesting) in the courthouse there. Then we drove around and took pictures and had lunch. I miss it a lot. It's strange how such a relatively short period of my life can mean so much to me, but it really does. Too bad there were no leaves on any of the trees, otherwise my pictures would have been alot nicer. Stupid winter.
A year ago today was when we left for Costa Rica. It seems a bit lame that I'm still obsessing over this, but I just can't stop myself. Everytime I think "It's spring break so YEA the students aren't around" I can't help but remembering how last year I wasn't around either because of CR. Similarly, I find myself missing Montana (mainly Glacier) everyday. The scenery, the hiking, the people... Good thing I'm going to Chile in a week and a half, otherwise I would die.
I'm done I think. I have more to write about but I don't feel like it. These next few days are going to be CRAAAAZZZZYY.
