Since my parents left, I felt like life speeded up around here (is that a word?!). I had my cousin's girlfriend come visit me also since she was in town, and together we escaped to Veracruz for a weekend where I had a serenata de Mariachi's serenade us at night... although it was just us two girls, luckily we did not get into any trouble, and had a really good time relaxing in an air conditioned hotel (I think i needed that rest to continue). Also, I have been wrapping things up with my internship visiting this and that place, which has left me somehwat tired physically... but i have really enjoyed it. I have had conversations about government funding quite often and learn an entire new concept or idea or a new something everytime i visit my internship and their sites (im "on the field" most often). Today i met with yet another presidente municipal... i.e. city mayor. I got to hear their towns major needs, and what they are doing with their funding...
My research project is beginning to come together, lets say i have the skeleton... but i still have to actually write it all down - which im not too worried about as long as i give myself the time to do it when i get back.
Honestly though, I am getting kind of exghasted of living in the enviroment that i am in within my host family. I have been uncomfortable for a longer time than I am comfortable being uncomfortable... i dont know if that makes sense. But obviously, this has served me well in a number of different areas...
as of now, I am begeninng to say my goodbyes... i have about a week left here in veracruz before i go to Mexico City for a few days, before i peace out back home!! Although i am REALLY excited to be back home (um, i miss BAR B QUE Sause... BAD. What the heck?!!)... i am REALLY bumbed, and actually kind of upset at the fact that i have to leave.
If everybody from home would come live down here, that would just great. Oh, and Disneyland would relocate, that would be even better... what do u think of my plan?!
I personally hope u guys are doing well... i haven't been all there with my communication first of all because it is very diffivult for me considering my circumstances, and second of all because it has been good for me to be away from the exessive need to be in constant communication with the world... see? I've not been in full communication and the world is still functioning just as it was before... so, there's ONE out of the inurable lessons i have learned thus far.
Dont know when i will write again, but as of now i return to LA within 2 weeks... and we begin again with a whole new chapter in my life.

um yea. that whole new chapter still seems sooo far away to me...how is it getting so close?
and i think that everyone should just relocate here... theres disneyland in paris, you speak spanish, we just need your mom here to make us some yummmmy food! then everythings perfect! and theres no bugs!
i finished my internship today...really? whats going on? how have i finished my GLT internship? I am weighed down with a sadness so deep i cant even cry hard enough to feel better. Remembering you and the conversations we will have on our hammock makes me feel a lot better tho.

Live it up...we only have so much time. But if another person asks me when i am coming back i think i might break down. paz y amor...
