So I realize I haven't written a good, long update in quite some time. I feel bad, but I also have a good excuse: it's been busy. At this point I feel like it would be better to fill you all in on the last few months of my service when I get to see you in person, or maybe I'll give an account on this blog when I get home. The following is from an email I recently sent and I thought it might be worth it to post it here too.
"These past few weeks (and months really) have flown by and the moments I've had to just enjoy my site have been great, but mostly I've been running around trying to finish my projects and I've had a few major setbacks, which of course were upsetting. I hope that the library will be completed this week so it will be ready for our inaugurationon Saturday, with maybe a few finishing touches next week. Then I'll have about a week to just enjoy myself, do visits to donas and take a lot of pictures. It's going to be incredibly difficult to leave my site, but I hope that rejoining you all in the US will make up for it."

As hard as I know it will be for you to leave, it will be wonderful to see you. I hope you pack as much progress and enjoyment as possible into your remaining time...
bepster: i'm sure you're going to have mixed feelings but instead of looking at the road behind you or the road ahead -- i think you're right on when you say you need to just enjoy the moment. you'll always miss the DR when you're here - it's going to be a part of you forever! but you miss us when you're there... and i think the adventurer in all of us thrives on the worlds that cannot collide. there's something about the here and there that keeps us always appreciating both [speaking from my 10 years' straddling worlds in LA and Chicago...] can't wait to see you! HAVE FUN!
