Beginning of the End

I have 2 1/2 weeks left down here. I just wanna cry! You have no idea how badly I am gonna miss these people and just Choix and Mexico in general! My heart just aches at the thought of leaving but then my heart yearns for home and to see family and friends and church again and start the next stage of my life. I just realized I have less than 2 weeks of being a teenager left. That's truly huge for me because it kinda like ok Beth you are not a kid anymore. You really need to start growing up. I can't wait to get home and put to practise the skills I learned down here. I've learned I really enjoy cooking and sewing. And I want to get back into playing guitar and piano. I have the possibility of starting college to look forward to and chae rim coming and LBS. I'm glad I'm not going home to the unknown. I have options in front of me.

The Yoders have been away the last two weeks and just returned today. Don't tell them but I missed them a lot! It's gonna be hard on me to leave them. Anyway so Vaughn had been living with me and Anthony was around a lot as well as the caretakers on their days off. So I wasn't here alone very much. It was a time where I got to know the workers a little better. It was kinda fun just having the house to ourselves. 
I went to El Fuerte today with Diana, one of the caretakers, and I found a ton of cheap fabric! I'm so excited I can't wait to get home and start sewing! The question is how am I gonna have room for it all??? Yikes. El Fuerte is a beautiful historic colorful town! It is about 45 minute bus ride from Choix and it's a nice place to go to just get away for a little bit. 
Tomorrow we have a DNI group coming for about 10 days and 4 of the people were at EBI with me! So I'm really excited to have them around for a bit. 
I just want to mention on average it's about 108 degrees down here lately! That's HOT!!!!!!!!!! 
Stuff is gonna start wrapping up here as much as I want to stop time. Every good thing must come to an end. Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened! :D 
Later y'all
