Hey mom

I miss you so much and I have mixed emotions about leaving Mexico. On the good side is that I´m going to see you tomorrow and the bad side is that I'm leaving the host family that was so generously sharing their house and their time with me. At the end of the little party we had at the school for our last day Jenny cried. I kind of feel bad about that because I didn't shed 1 tear. But she is just staying in Mexico and losing me, we became good friends.

How do you like my journal? I sure wrote alot. when I felt sick I didn't write but I filled in for those days on other days. Tell Brandyn I miss her. Wow I never thought I'd be syaing that. But it's true. The school was cool but strict. They had uniforms for each day. We only have a dress code. Every Monday in the morning they have a sort of flag ceremony and a child tells us the history of the school. When they carry the flag where everybody can see it they step, march, at the same time and they swing their arms at the same time, too. There is so much to tell about Mexico and there are so many pictures I took. Me and dad are having one of the most thrilling experiences in our lives.
