Updates through pictures...

On Friday Riley and I are leaving (somewhere). Told my landlord Thursday would be my last night here. So before I move I figured I'd post pictures of where I've been living this past month. This first picture looks out my bedroom door at the DINING ROOM/KITCHEN AREA. There is a metal staircase that goes to a bridge above where people hang towels and walk to more bedrooms, and above that is a terazza, which lets in beautiful light. In the dining room area people have written and drawn all over the walls.

MY LOVELY SOCK CREATURE FAMILY (the ones I brought to Buenos Aires).

MIRROR NEXT TO MY DESK, where I hang up all of my jewelry and accessories. To the right is a drawing my last housemate Kerstin drew for me. And on the mirror I have the WRC reminding me I am beautiful (as is anyone who reads it).

MIRROR, DESK, GUITAR, AND MAKE UP THINGS... On the other side of the green door is the bedroom next to me, to the left is another green door which is mine. Green Green Green.

My LARGE AWESOME BED with pictures of loved ones next to it. If I love you there is a chance you are there. Every morning when I wake up I reach my lazy arm over, open the window, and push the shutters to the side and the light floods in.

MY GIANT ARMOIRE AND MY FACE.

3.5 Weeks left. Nuts. A lot of people are taking off to travel, and I need to be attentive because some of them will still be gone when I leave. Which is strange. I am looking forward to being in California beyond belief. However, I wish I could choose to walk outside and walk downtown Buenos Aires whenever, and I won't be able to. Yesterday I was thinking about how I won't be able to walk outside and wander down the streets of San Telmo downtown... and my breathing felt heavy and a struggle. And it's strange. I have no doubt California is going to be absolutely amazing, but it's still strange.

It has been so hot here. Right now its only 72, which is perfect, but the past week its been in the 80s and 90s leaving me no choice but to wear dresses on the daily. It's lovely but it's been so hot and dresses aren't quite naked feeling enough, but I suppose it's the closest I'll get. Yesterday however, it was a bit more overcast and I was really excited to wear pants...

Today I am hoping John will return from the countryside so that I can go with him and climb up on the very top of the terazza, where there are buildings upon buildings and it is impresionante.

love.love.love. (you)
