My newest news is that I am not going to Africa after all for Christmas. The family will be visiting folks in France for the two week break at the end of the month and I´ll get the first week of January, or maybe more, off to do what I want. I was really pumped to get all tan at Christmas, so maybe I´ll try to plan a trip to somewhere warm. I´m going to be in Spain for New Year though because people dress up in costumes and that will be sweet. Maybe Whit can come visit then, yesssssss!
Almost time to go hang with her, how fun! She says we´re going to watch Christmas movies and eat baked apples and ice cream one night. Sounds awesome to the naked ear, but we are far from home and I just don´t know how my little heart will handle Christmas in a far off place yet. I was just sort of planning on skipping it this year because it might be too painful to think about. I guess with Whit there it will be good. We´ll probably just hug for about the frist half an hour we are together.
Lately, I´ve been a bad student. It´s really frustrating me because I think that getting to know people while I´m here is the most important thing, but it´s putting me a little behind in my studies. Really though, I´m just being lazy. I have the time and i´m just not setting it aside. Just thought I´d vent that to you all back home so you can flood my inbox with messages saying, "it´s ok Darb, you´re doing great!" Yes, please coddle me.
Basketball Sunday went well, and resulted in lots of pictures from downtown Vitoria and Estella, etc, at night. I´ll post them soon. Many are blurry, but pretty and I got to take a sweet night time rodeo around the area. The team I played with won, the team I practice with lost (tear), and the team we wanted to win in Vitoria won. Good stuff.
I hope all is well back home! Send me an update on you when you get a chance. Lovin´s.
