| Down to my last Monday in Mexico. My weekend was nice. I was a little worried that it would drag on really long since I kinda wanted to be home, but fortunately, it hasn�t. I don�t know why I thought that, because none of the other weekends have drug here. Everything has gone incredibly fast, especially in the last month. So, Friday I started packing early. I figured that I better go ahead just in case I ran into some major problems. Fortunately, everything has been pretty easy. I am happy with the way my luggage is cooperating! I was a little mistaken on not necessarily the amount of stuff I have bought, but the size. Most of what I have bought has been books and small sized souveniers. That is good. What I was worried about was my notebooks, because I had 3 notebooks that I bought here. But everything seems to be fitting. Now, I�m not going to get too excited yet, just because things usually don�t start not fitting until the very end. I have one more load of clothes to wash, and if those fit in my suitcase, I�m home free. No, actually, I�m not home free until I get on the plane. I forgot that neither of my suitcases can weigh more than 80 pounds. I am a little worried about the big red one because it is huge and has the capacity of carrying an awful lot of stuff. So, I might try to put it on the bathroom scale to weigh it or something. If its too heavy, I will put some things in my other suitcase. Last piece of news about packing- I also am taking my backpack as a carryon. Well, I�m only allowed 2 pieces of luggage, but I don�t know if that means total or 2 to checkin and one as a carry-on. I assumed it meant for carry-on too, which would mean that I can�t take a carry-on. But I am figuring that they won�t know, so I will just carry my bookbag on the plane. I know all of that probably made no sense to anybody reading this. Saturday I just packed and washed clothes and also walked to the school. I am so low on money and decided that taking the bus would have to be limited, so I walked to the school. It wasn�t bad. The only thing that sucked was that the lab closed early, at 5, and I got here at 4:50. So, I checked my mail and that was it. I had wanted to type an entry, but didn�t have time. Sunday I went to church wiht Becky for the last time and then we went out to eat. I had invited a lady, Nancy, but she never came, so I went ahead to church. I was late and missed most of the songs, but got there for the last 2 songs, and took a photo of the church. The place we ate at was great! It is called RIno�s and they have the best lunch meal for $2.50! It was delicious! For that price you get drink, bread, soup, rice, beans and chips, a main course (I ordered the fillet chicken breast) and a desert! Talk about ridiculous! I�m glad I didn�t find that place earlier. I�m really going to miss those good cheap meals! I�m starting to have strange dreams about leaving. Last night I dreamt that I went home and got water out of the sink, drank it, and it tasted really funny to me and I couldn�t drink it! That�s going to be so weird to drink water out of the sink again! I�ll probably stop myself everytime I get ready to do it! So, other than that, I�m just doing last minute stuff. I want to go say goodbye to Dr. Gonzalez today and Becky wants me to go with her to Taxco tomorrow, so I�ll probably do that. I wanted to wash some more clothes on Tuesday, but will probably do it today since I�ll be in Taxco tomorrow. I will attempt to write again tomorrow! |
