Tonight as I sat at a 5 de Mayo fiesta on 7 de Mayo eating some incredible burritos that we made and talking with friends about what we're doing after finals, I realized how freaking fast almost 4 months has gone by and how little time it seems I actually have left after looking at the various trips and things I have planned until July 1st.
Por ejemplo:
This coming weekend, I am going down south to build mediaaguas (temporary shelters) for people who's homes were damaged in the Earthquake.
The weekend after that I will be studying for my 3rd of 4 tests in one of my classes.
The weekend after that I will be in San Pedro de Atacama and BAM it's June.
Then Karen will be here and we will explore Santiago and travel somewhere.
Then I will go snowboarding one weekend.
Then I will take 3 final tests.
Then I am done.
What?! Fluency in Spanish is no longer a realistic goal at this point. I can honestly say that I speak Spanish, but not that I'm fluent in Spanish and that will have to suffice.
Tomorrow I'm going to an amusement park called Fantasilandia with a friend and her students from her internship! I'll be sure to take tons of pictures and update about it!
