Studying?

I'm in the library studying... haha no. I'm sorting some things out for next semester.
I have been working on a pro and con list of staying next semester.

I love it here. It is so beautiful, the culture keeps unfolding it's self to me. I very much enjoy the beaches and the weather. I am almost 80% sure ill stay next semester but part of me feels like i am on a pro-longed vacation that is going to end in six weeks. I keep waiting. I look at my friends here as people you meet and pretend that you will always be friends with but when you are separate you forget about each other. I keep waiting to go home for my life to resume but the crazy part is when I go back I am all of a sudden a junior in college and almost 21. This whole year is an amazing experience but I almost feel like I'm missing it by thinking its ending.

I still haven't started working and with six weeks left I am beginning to feel the pressure of next semester. It's weird how much I think about money. I want to be out enjoying the island but every time I leave I think, man i need this money for school next semester. its stressful. I know back home I would be working and making plenty of money to save for my apartment I want to get when I move home. What I REALLY want to think about is what other places I can visit in this amazing part of the world.

Who knows.

Just thinking.

peace and love

Cord.

If you love it so much there, stay next semester. It is not a vacation, you are making progress on your degree and what better way to do it but enjoying it. If you decide not to stay, you will regret the very first cold spell you will have in january. Believe me, I´ve been through it a lot of times.

I think you will feel better when you start working. You have too much free time on your hands. What is this with you worrying about money? You never do that. Relax. We've always found away to make things work and we will always find a way.

Keep your grades up and learn and go get your new SS card so you can make some cash.

Hey, have you been to the west end of the island, there is a beach there called sandy beach that looks like a good photography place. Download Google Earth (http://earth.google.com/)into your laptop, and you will be able to see what I mean.

I love what you said about waiting to go home for your life to resume. I feel like that sometimes! Yesterday I was thinking about how beautiful autumn is and how I love the weather and the colors and then I got his dreadful feeling of what comes next. Just have to remember sometimes to enjoy the moment and not worry so much about what comes next. ps love the new blog look!
