Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Uruguay

Adios.

Today is my last day in Bolivia. Its very strange to see that in print. I can't say that its flown by, but it definitely does not feel like its time to leave. I emailed my professors my final paper about twenty minutes ago. All 22 pages of it. I feel like not doing my thesis on this topic would be a significant waste of time after all this work haha. We'll see though.

I had to go to the doctor yesterday :/. I've had a sinus infection for awhile, and it seemed to be getting worse not better, so we all thought it would smart for me to get some meds and knock it out so it doesn't turn into something nasty in Peru.  The doctor was very nice, and he went to medical school at Emory, so communicating my symptoms to him was not a problem. I got some nice antibiotics to knock whatever it is out of my system.  Yesterday, I packed up some of the clothes I won't wear in Ecuador and sent them home. I definitely overpacked. I didn't think I had though, and I didn't realize it until I got here. I guess I was just really really really thorough about being prepared for any situation haha. Oh well. At least I know better now for my semester abroad.  I'm pretty much all packed for my flight to Cusco tomorrow. We're leaving the house bright and early at 6 am. Tonight, we have plans to have one last dinner with our Bolivian friends. I'm really going to miss them! Sarah and I made a pact that we're going to come back here and visit during our semester abroad, so hopefully this isn't the last of my Bolivian experience. If it is, I guess I'm okay with that. I've have a wonderful time here, and learned so much, in and out of the classroom.
