One More Week

If last time I posted was April 3rd, it's been four months since I've touched this blog. That makes me feel bad, because I thought I had it in me to start a project and not stop halfway through. Oh, well. Let's call it a prolonged summer vacation from the blog.

As of now I have one week and one day left in Brazil. All the excitement that consumed me before is slowly being replaced by tinges of nervousness and anxiety. Leaving the country I've lived in for 18 years is no easy thing, even though it has been my dream for quite a while.

You see, a comment on my last post actually inspired me to write this one. "Deep, artistic and passionate soul, that of yours..." he said. I never thought about myself quite in that way. I actually never really stopped to think about myself at all, who I really am, what is really behind this necessity I have to study miles and miles away from home. Maybe it's because I'm always seeking adventure, something new and different... maybe I just get bored easily and need something new to complain about. Or maybe I want to get out of my comfort zone and really grow as a person. I don't know quite yet what my reason is for it all, but this that I'm doing, moving to Boston, it's no game anymore.

This is the real deal.
