Day 60: Homesickness setting in again...

So its been a little over two months here and I have a little less than a month (27 days to be exact) until I come back to the US. I was doing good for the longest time but now longer and more frequent bouts of sadness are starting to plague me each day. I have TRULY appreciated this experience because I have learned so much and experienced natural beauty as I have never done so before. Africa has a ways to go but it is just so beautiful!



With that being said. Home is home. And I miss my friends, my own room, food that I like, hot showers, no malaria scares, and my life back in the States. I now know the limits of what I can stand as far as international travel goes. I said it once and I'll say it again, I will appreciate everything I have SO much more.



Also its tough because even though I am very grateful for coming with another fellow, it gets hard sometimes. She is great and I like her and all but its tough to live with, work with, go out to eat with, and almost everything else with the SAME person EVERYDAY. I get annoyed from time to time and I wish I had more alone time to just reflect on things and hell bust out crying if I so wish. I do try to take walks by myself on the weekends from time to time but its but for only so long. I miss my alone time. And because I have to live with her I have to suck it up. Don't get me wrong I feel blessed to have had her on this trip and I will definitely keep in touch with her afterwards but I long for my me time.



Sorry for all this bitching and moaning yet again....but I've been getting sad a lot :-(

But I know God has a lot in store for me......I need to lean on faith right now....
