Lo que pasó, pasó
I have a slight urge to type this all in Spanish, but I know only two people would even moderately understand so I will refrain.
So today. It's hard for me to grasp how much emotions can control a person. I haven't had much of an appetite today because I am worried that I made a horrible mistake. At the same time, this is the first time in a long time that I am being honest about how I feel with someone outside of myself. Even though the situation seems so very hopeless, somehow I still have hope. How is that possible? If this even remotely works out I might have to throw away my very cynical attitude. That would be sad.
I just got an email back from Moises and apparently now there are 22 Dominicans coming in September, and there's the possibility that their will be a show in another part of Mass or Maine a couple days before. I might become a groupie. I usually don't get the chance to spend more than a few hours with them when the tour rolls around so the fact that I'm seeing them for 2-ish days is AMAZING! I'm so excited about it.
And then there is January. Can't it be January already?? I emailed my advisor today to find out if I can potentially do two Independent Studies from the Dominican Republic. If she says yes I can stay in the DR for a year. A year. Wow. I talked to Nicole a bit last night and we began to talk about what we would do after Kristy leaves in April. She has a mandatory year off to be in the states, which she is dreading. We are living with Kristy January-April but then will probably have to either find an apartment in the city or live at Casa Pastoral. Not sure which would be cheaper yet though.
And I am waiting for a response that may never come...
