last day of argentina

ahhhh. only a few more hours left in buenos aires. amber, jud, and geoffrey left this morning to go on to their own adventures (brazil, bariloche (southern argentina), and somewhere else, respectively), so we had some sad goodbyes last night and this morning. just finished packing, my suitcase is huge, and just killing time to when we meet up at 6:30pm to go to the airport. i believe our flight leaves around 9ish, arriving in houston texas at 6:15am, and getting home in atascadero much much later that night (houston to denver to LA to home).

would love to describe what this semester has meant to me, but its hard. i have made some amazing friendships and experienced and seen more in the last 3.5 months than the majority of people see in their lifetimes. its sad to have this time in my life end, but i feel blessed to have had the opportunity to have traveled, lived, and studied in latin america.

this past week has been eventful. had a spanish final on wednesday and turned in 5 essays (all in spanish) to my politics class. pretty sure i got an A in both classes so excited about that. last few nights have been spent just spending time with my friends from this program. its been great. but i'm tired, because this morning i got home at 4, saturday morning at 6, friday morning at 6, and thursday morning relatively late also. not much sleep, but well worth it. so many good memories.

well, this should be it for my blog. for those of you who stuck with me through this trip, hope my posts have been informative and you enjoyed the pictures. i'll probably start blogging again when i go to europe this summer, so i'll make sure your in the know when the time comes.

for friends and family in california, see you tomorrow. for my east coast peeps, i'll be in PA on the 7th (or 8th, can't remember), but classes start jan.9th so i'll for sure see you then.

chau.
