I know I say this like every other post (at least) but it's one of those Chile-missing days... I know, just call me "crazy" "come HOME from the mission" "you've been back almost 4 months now"... but (cheesy warning) I feel like I left part of my heart there! I even miss the arroz con pollo that we ate everyday. Walking the streets. Talking in Spanish. Visiting people. Having a routine, with plans.
I was just thinking of Christmas last year. Well, it was summer, so it was HOT and that was weird. Our chain we made in like November, buying our little Christmas tree, putting our presents under it, opening them Christmas morning, Skyping the family, eating with the Tapias and Kelly, ... how different that Christmas was than any other Christmas I've ever had, or will ever have. But it was a special one, where I felt like I learned the true meaning of Christmas. And I kinda miss that...
I just want to go back... say hi to people... see things, be there. Ya know?
I've been thinking a lot about it this week. Chile. It's only already been almost four months... what!? I've completed a semester of school (Hallelujah), made new friends, gone to activities, seen movies, found new music, several trips to the temple, two family vacations, babysitting, working, etc etc. How is that possible that it hasn't even been four months yet?
To make it better (or maybe make me miss it all more?) I will be going to UTAH next week to see TWO of my old companions!! :D AH! I'm super excited for that! I've missed those girls! We will take lots of pictures and have tons of funnn!!
Fun fact? It's summer in Chile right now, and today it was hotter here in QC than it was in Antofagasta... ha!
