See? Still in St.Mary's...
I leave on September 1st - only three days away.
It's an odd feeling being here, and not taking classes with everyone else. Part of me feels like I'm missing out- but another part of me knows that whatever I'll be doing there is beyond anything I could do in St.Mary's. I find that I'm so preoccupied with thinking about what internship/service project I'll choose; it's stressing me out!
I'm looking forward to meeting my host family and getting acquainted with them. It is going to be a lot of fun; according to the description my 'madre' is a fantastic cook . Her name is Ligia and she has a Daughter named Vanessa. Ligia is a house keeper and Vanessa works at her aunt's spa. They live just outside of San Jose.
I'm pretty anxious about getting there and using my Spanish. I know I'll be fine, but It is unnerving to think about how difficult it will be for me to articulate complex ideas with my simple language skills. Despite my angst I am very eager to improve.
I just have to take it one day at a time. Right?
