Time of Your Song.

Well, it's been over a year my old friend.

Things have changed.
Again, change is the only constant thing in my life.
I have become ok with that.
I look forward to surprises.

This past year I have filled my head with many things, then emptied it, then filled it again.
Tell me what you know.

I defeated mono, and its ability to ruin my swim season.
Alas, chemistry defeated me.
Round two begins Spetember 9.

I am pretty content.
I don't have to deal with the dorms anymore, and I can actually eat healthy because I don't have to deal with the cafe! Hurrah!

I climbed a volcano in 4.5 hours, and fell down it in 3.
Battlescars.
I gave stiches, shots, local anesthetic, and saw giant bugs.
Fed children, saw poverty, and swam in the Pacific for the first time.
I loved it.
All of it.
I may or may not do medical trips once I can do things like that.. in about 8 years, hah.
Nica Nica is the first place on my list.

I've enjoyed this summer.
I've literally done nothing, but I've had fun.
A little too much fun, as my wallet is thin.
I attribute that to good meals, good beers, and good company.

I watched someone die, and learned how to comfort them.
It was a real eye opener, this summer.

I wouldn't trade it for the world.

[keep my feet on the ground and head in the clouds]
