A Full Year of Summer


















So, yeah.... I am going to Argentina this summer!! I signed a contract so that means I am definitely on my way (unless I die, or get hit by a car and paralyzed, or frozen in some freak scientific experiment for preservation). I will be going on August 9th or 10th I believe and comign home Juneish.
I will be working with the children in the orphanage (picture) and schools mostly, and there are only a couple sisters spread out over the city who know English, so I will be getting an intense Spanish education (yes!).

San Rafael, Argentina.

longings

my roommate was broken up with tonight and it stinks. i feel so bad for her. the feeling of being broken up with completely came back to me and i can remember it too well. i don't even know what to say to comfort her. i've just been trying to be around...and not going out so that she isn't here alone. tonight i went out for a walk (yes, it's safe enough to do that).

the night was mysteriously peaceful. i don't even know what it was. something about the cool air that made me feel like i could sing faintly into the quietness. the stars were out and there was no wind. everything was just quiet...except for my voice singing to God. and i was in a hoodie with no coat freezing and everything was wonderful.
