OMGoodness

They say humans are very talented and have the ability to do many tasks at once. Yet Dom and I would argue Sofia fails at that. Anyways, Sofia is NOT the point. What I want to say is something about how humans cannot process and take-in at the same time. Someone like Dom would also argue this statement but, what I want to say is I cannot process everything I am taking in right now because I am a human who is not talented in that area. I think it takes a very skilled individual. Or perhaps a very experienced one. But, right now, for the last 2 weeks I have been living, feeling, and loving every breath here in The Republic of Panama without wanting to process how I feel. What I want to say is, I haven't written much here because that would require processizationism.

-----------------------

Dom and I fly out tomorrow @ 1:55pm. In less than however many hours I refuse to count, we will be saying "see you soon" to everything we've lived for the past casi un ano. In less than however many more breaths of our second home we will take in - this time, we will be walking through airport security with our suitcases and our experience, heavy but full of life. In who cares what length of measurable anything, we will be looking at this country from a plane; something many of our family here has never done. In whenever, we will shed tears but refuse to shed skin; we will look at eachother, or out the window, or at the drink cart slugging down the aisle; we will think about random, specific, moments that touched us somewhere important; we might ask ourselves questions, or rememer something we were supposed to do, but, none of it will matter, not really; we will be going to our first home, where our second home will be brought through us. Heart is where home is where heart is home is heart.

Too much is going on.

Sofia Snow and Kelsey Van Ert are now home in the United States of America. Dominique Chestand and I have moved in with our friends and will be on a plane June 12th headed to the U.S.

I now live in a home with a mom. It's weird because this whole time we have been living with eachother = other students/FWers/young adults. I am now in a home though. I feel home a little bit. Don't get to comfortable Alida.

Anyways, hoy I went to Los Andes shopping center with Yanneth (momma). She wanted to buy me sandalias as a going away gift but, I didn't pick any out. I don't need going away gifts. They are a beautiful thought. But, I would be fine with a hug, or a look into some eyes. She said she will get me some before I leave. "Te vas a ver." After that we went to El Costo which is a department store type of deal and I was looking at jeans. Now, I'm going to tell you some honest truth. There are not many pairs of pants in this country that are not BEDAZZLED! They either got metal shapes, fake crystals, glitter, or a combination of all three somewhere on the dang pantalones. Just when I think I find a good pair of jeans I turn them to the back to give em the ultimate test and NONE EVER PASS!! I always find some dang sparkling silvers or golds embroidering the butt pockets.

Today I must have got lucky because you see, I found a pair of jeans that was fly on the front. And when I gave em the test there wasn't any glitter to be found. I ran em to the changing room and they fit! Well, that's a lie. They almost fit me. And I woulda bought em too. The thing was that my posterior was not comfortable in those particular pantalon. I know, I know! I thought I was in a country of like-behinded people too! Well, that just goes to show... What does it show exactly?! I don't know, I'm just messing with ya. I learned...um...that...um... -- aw here it goes, I was reminded why I never bought any clothes here the entire year! Shoo...

P.S. I love Panama despite their bedazzledness.
