Birthday festivities have come to an end. Unfortunately that only means school work is getting down to the wire, and I have less than two weeks left in Cape Town. Not a whole lot of excitement coming from me for a while; paper due tomorrow (I'm currently 700 words in out of 4000 and starting to burn out.... not good), final exam this Thursday, then finals Tuesday and Wednesday, then I'm out! Crazy to think about, and very intimidating I have that much to do in a short amount of time.
Even though I'm having an experience of a lifetime here in Cape Town, being at home in Minnesota is becoming increasingly appealing. I think first and foremost its the stress of finals that make me want to be home more than anything. But here are a few things I'm looking forward to: not doing school work for a month, eating normal food, not having a roommate, seeing family, snuggling with Izzy, living in a quiet house, listening to good music (my housemates somehow think that everyone likes their music... not true), the holiday season, and going to Santa Clara at the end of November to see friends and start moving in.
Less than a month left in South Africa and I certainly don't want to take it for granted. But I am ready to get out of Cape Town and explore what the rest of this country has to offer.
All from me for a while. Back to the books.
