Well, even though I've sucked recently at blogging and I still have my past 3 weeks to blog about...I decided to write one last post while I am in Sevilla. It is Wednesday night, and although I am not leaving until Friday, I have to turn in my modem tomorrow...so it is the last night I can write this blog from Sevilla!!! Wow, I really cannot believe how time has flown, yet at the same time it feels like such a long time since I've been home. Time here has and still is a very strange concept.
Although these past two weeks have been jam packed with last nights out, last minute errands and more importantly, FINALS and final papers, I have managed to still have a great last two weeks here in Sevilla. I have somehow remained pretty calm throughout it all- it is hard to be stressed when I know I will be home with my family, friends and Aaron in such a short time. And I am also trying to enjoy Sevilla as much as I can in my last few days. I have not walked past the Cathedral this week without stopping to take a good look at it, and maybe even a picture or two on my disposable camera (I lost my camera on my birthday...oops...21??). Speaking of which, I have not forgotten about my Paris, Feria, and birthday blogs. I promise to put them up when I get home next week!
Mostly though, I can't wait to get home and share my experiences with everyone in person. I have so many pictures and stories from Sevilla and from my travels that I can't wait to share with all of you. While I am starting to get really sad about leaving Sevilla and the amazing friends I have made here this semester, I am also very excited to get back to everyone at home. I really didn't even think I would have such a hard time leaving Sevilla- but looking back on how amazing this semester was, it is much harder to comprehend leaving than I thought! But like I said, I am very excited to be home in exactly 48 hours from now!!!!! Wow.
Before I go, let me tell you all my travel plans...because I am really not looking forward to them! Haha. So I leave at 6 am to catch a cab to the Sevilla train station, where I will be taking a 6:45 am train to Madrid. From there, I will take a cab to the airport, where I have a flight at 12:35 pm to Philly (luckily I know a bunch of people on the flight- slightly less painful 8.5 hours). I land at 3 pm Philly time, then I have a 3 hour layover which would be awful EXCEPT for the fact that EMILY has the same layover as me!!! So we will get to hang out for a few hours one last time before we both go home. My flight leaves at 5:55 pm ET and gets into Chicago at 7:18 pm CT, where my parents (and Joey??) will be waiting to pick me up!!!! Overall, it will be a pretty long 20 hours of travelling...but it will definitely be worth it!
Millones de besos a todos mis amigos por la última vez de Sevilla, y que nos veamos muy pronto :)
SEE YOU ALL SOOONNNNN!!!!!!!!! Adios España, ¡te quiero!
