Time to say Good-Bye! ¡Adios!

So, I'm leaving Arequipa on Monday (2 days!) and heading back home to New York City. It was my last day of teaching at Paz y Esperanza on December 4th and the Director forgot to tell the teachers and students. So, I only said good-bye to about half the kids as the other half were not even there. I also passed out some school supplies and gifts to the kids and gave them their folders back. I wish I had some pictures of the last project I undertook, but I was pretty sad my last day. I helped the kids put their hand prints with acrylic paint around the framed photos of the mural process over the mural itself (Ashley- check it out in the "library" next time you go to Horacio). It turned out pretty good, but I was crying most of my last day while doing this as I couldn't believe so many kids weren't there and that the Director forgot it was my last day. I had reminded him a handful of times, but he still forgot. The "real" Director (Director Froilan) was not able to come out to bid me farewell, but he sent me a beautiful e-mail thanking me for all the work I had done.

I'll probably miss Arequipa since I've been here for so long, but I am so ready to go home........

Good-bye readers (all 5-8 of you). Maybe on this last post you might actually have the ganas to comment:)
