Still Breathing...

Many of you may have thought that I have fallen off the face of the earth...but the truth is, I'm still alive and kicking. About 3 weeks ago my hommie C left the city, and that was really hard. Here is a pic of us at the airport before all the tears began flowing...don't you like his hat? It's definitely really different without him here, and it was really hard at first...but I am doing much better now. I am a working woman now...no more school for this girl. It's been a nice change for me. It's REALLY hard to believe that I have only 4 more months left in this city. Of course there are things and more important than that, people, that I can't wait to see back in the states...but recently I'm realizing how incredibly difficult it is going to be to leave this place...these people that I have fallen in love with and can truly call my heart friends. I guess Father will help me to cross that bridge when I come to it, but the thing is that I know it's going to come up much quicker than I can imagine. I guess you really know you've truly given yourself to a place, to people when it really hurts to let go.
