Thirsty in the rain...

So I finally found a mono test in Ghana. Travelled for 6 hours to get to it, but nontheless, I still got the thing.
Results in 5 days...
So Ghana.
Anyway, my last post was completely skewed. I didn't even understand half of it when I reread it.My life hasn't become any more interesting since the last post occured so, sorry for the lack.
I told Ari my life was kinda boring right now, and he laughed "You're in Africa!" Let me just say for the record that Africa can be MORE boring than anywhere else in the world. The lifestyle is based upon waiting for things.
Anyway...The closer I get to leaving the more freaked out I get. For one thing, I freak out because I want so badly to go home. The things I miss! Food, clearly the most important, my family, my friends, a comfortable couch.In reality though, when I compare the affect of those "really great" things (excluding my family and friends) have on my life as opposed to Eli, Toon, Helene, Rikke, Lisette, Liane, Sara, the clinic, Ghana as a whole its not even close. In depth, in size, in anything.
And those are also things I am going to really leave behind. Who knows when I will be able to see them again. Home will always be there, eggs benedict will never dissapear, I can always go to Meg's or Triggs' or Steven's cabin. The things I will leave here sure, I can carry them around with me forever, but its never going to be there, or the same, again.
My life here is not easy. Things are so much more frustrating, they take longer, they aren't easily accessible, but you get used to it, and it teaches you to utilize what you have. Take the good, forget the bad, move on.
I never want to lose this, but I know I will.
Not to mention I am freaking out because when I come home I will be in this inbetween limbo stage that will last maybe a month, but then poof! I am in Israel.
So much for readjusting.
When I called my dad today I was telling him I am looking for a mono test, and he suddenly asks "Where is your passport?!?" and I said, "Dad, what the hell does that have to do with anything...I'm not going to come home!"
Trying to use every excuse to get me on that plane...

Hope everyone had a good Christmas.
Have a good New Year.

Just like that eagle, now my soul is flying
Over the valleys in the crimson morning sky
And there don’t seem to be no use in struggling so hard
And there don’t seem to be no reasons why
