Well, its hit!
Tonight, I have to write because I am feeling quite homesick. It doesn't help that this has been a big week back in the states. Last weekend 5 friends got married, and this week the Arkansas Razorbacks have continued in their amazing winning streak. So much is going on, that a part of me feels like I am missing out, and apart of me really wants to go home as soon as I can. It doesn't help that my sickness has gotten worse. Today, I wasn't able to leave the house.
I know, I am suppose to be here in Spain learning language, taking tests (I have my first test on Tuesday), and sharing Christ with others. Its just hard to be so far away from home. Not to be able to go home for another 8 months. It seems so far from now. I know that it will go by so fast. I just really hate it when I focus so much on being away from home. I feel like I miss out on so much because I have really been trying to live in the moment. To be fully here, I have strived to find my joy in Christ everyday here in Spain. It's just tough when I don't feel well.
I only write this because when I write it, it makes me feel better. Don't worry, this too shall pass. haha
I dont want to end on a bad note, so I will tell you what I just did. I am right now, watching television with my roommates. There was a television show on like SNL. They had a skit with Saddam Hussein and when the announcer welcomed him the guy playing saddam said "Hola, ca@ron." As I normally do when I watch tv when there is a word I dont know I repeat it. Well, I repeated "ca@ron" and my roommates not wanting me to feel bad just looked at eachother. Then, I realized. THAT IS A BAD WORD ISNT IT! They of course starting laughing, and I began to apologize for cussing. Welcome to my world! haha
