63 Days and Counting
I was actually looking forward to today, but all night I couldn't sleep. Not because of excitement, but because something was wrong with my body. At around 2 in the AM, I felt really sick, but I managed to suppress it, and I went back to sleep... kinda. I woke up loads more and couldn't sleep anymore after 6:30 as I was feeling miserable, so I just kinda browsed the internet. I felt the need to get up and change because I was cold, but I was really hot, so I needed to switch up the ratio of blanket:clothes. Then I felt it. My stomach dropped. I laid back down on my bed trying again to ignore this feeling of someone wringing my stomach; it was no good. So I ran to the bathroom and was sick. Andy comforted me via Skype and talked to me a bit and made me laugh, but now he's in school and I'm bored. This is one of those days I wish I have a library full of movies, but I don't.
Also, if I tell you I'm excited that I'm going home in 63 days, it's not because I hate you, but it's just because I'm excited. And no- I'm not wishing these days away. Counting down makes the days more precious because my days in this country are numbered.

Next time I'm in Stockton, I'll leave you some proper American dvds. I feel you about counting down the days. I've got 44 left... it feels SO weird. I'm trying to stay emotionally 'here' - but it's really hard. I'm so looking forward to just hugging my mom again. But I'm also really aware that when I go home, I'm moving away from my 24/7 adventure. Baton Rouge doesn't really compare to being able to hop on a train and just go to London on a whim. I'll get used to it though. I just have to remember how much I've missed it whilst I've been here.
Coffee or something fun soon, hey?
