Ay dios mio

6 hour layover in Philly airport.. aka really good cheesesteaks and $8 WiFi b/c at least if I'm stuck here for that long, I can facebook stalk to pass the time.

I can't believe I'm actually en route to Madrid as I type this. It seems like I just started filling out that damn application and talking about going, and back then I didn't really think it would happen. B/c let's face it, my Spanish isn't the best (especially right now) and I've never imagined teaching as a possible career path.

I knew the second I returned to the US from Sweden last year, I was going back abroad, I just wasn't sure how I could go about doing it. Lo and behold, I figured it out, and even better-- I figured out how to do it AND get paid. Even though I'll be living out of a box and eating rice and chicken for the next 10 months.. whatever.

I look like absolute roadkill right now b/c I cried all night/this morning saying bye to Bry and then I never had time for a shower/makeup so my hair is a heep of nappyness held back by my headbead. There are so many things going through my head right now.. this morning was such a crazy whirlwind of a morning that my brain is still catching up.

I can't wait to be in Spain and to see Nat, Eme, and of course Myriam next weekend!!! :) It doesn't seem like 1 1/2 years ago that I saw them last, although at the same time it seems like it was forever! Tomorrow Eme and Marcos are having a fiesta at their flat and I can't wait to see everyone. This is so surreal. I love adventures.

By the way... I feel like it should be said "Happy 9/11" but that's not appropriate sooo I guess I'll just say May we never forget 9/11, and everyone that died that day. Can't believe it was 8 years ago... <3
