It Was Bound To Happen Sometime

      I am Homesick...there i said it. Don't get me wrong I love, love, love LOVE Argentina...but it was Halloween and they didn't care, it was pouring and thundering (Rain makes me feel nostalgic) and the leaves ought to be red right now not yellow green.... I discovered that their idea of gum is simply not the same and i have been craving gum for a month now. Who craves gum?! Also, I've come to realize that even though my strong suit may be languages that wont stop me from taking more than two months to be fluent.....patients is apparently what i will be learning in the mean time. All good things come to those who wait, i guess. Although, Callie and i spoke in Spanish to each other all day on Halloween and i discovered that i can actually say more than i thought i could. So maybe i'm not giving myself enough credit.

      I never thought the day would arrive when i missed cars but i actually have been longing to just get in my little green car and go for a drive. I think partially that is because i'm not really getting any alone time. I have this insane fear of missing out (Thank you Brown family for those genes) and so instead of staying home and being alone and thinking i'm always out on the go. By the time i get to the weekend i feel like the walking dead. I have some of the most absurd and hilarious stories to tell but i am always exhausted.

       But today i miss fall, fall is one of my favorite seasons and it finally caught up with me that i plumb missed it this year. My internal clock thinks i should be pulling out my hoodies and fuzzy blankets, planning hot chocolate and movie nights with Nate, when in reality i am preparing to die of heat stroke in a month or two. Its an interesting thing. There is so many wonderful things about Spring here but right now i'm in a missing mood so i will tell you all the things i love about it later. I guess i'm just a little heartsick....Maybe i should go find Danny (ACA guy) so we can commiserate about missing our significant others in the USA.

     But on the bright side we are taking an ACA trip to Buenos Aires for the week starting on Monday so that will give me something new to see and do! I'm pretty excited for this trip, i probably wont take my computer so i may not have any more posts until i get back...but we shall see. Depends on how heavy my backpack is without my little blue laptop.

A little blurry but its the best i have. From Vespers last night.....we did not all plan to wear blue i swear.
