One day left. Tonight is graduation. Tomorrow we leave for the airport. Time has flown by and I'm not going to waste any time now sitting here and being reflective...that will all come out later, I'm sure.

It's strange how void of emotion I find myself with. I am usually a pretty passionate person about things...I feel deeply. However, for the last few weeks, I find myself numb. Cori and I have been talking about this a lot...I can't quite figure it out except to say that I won't let myself feel right now. I'm leaving my Senegal tomorrow night...at least, I'm leaving for the airport...but I don't feel like this is goodbye to Senegal. I don't feel like I am really leaving. That scares me. It scares me because when it does hit me, it will be too late to really say goodbye. Last night Cori and I got a fire going on a box of memories that I wanted to forget...and I was completely emotionless as I watched the flames eat up all those memories, which was frustrating. Too many tears have been shed this year. I think my well has simply run dry. I'm in need of a sweet summer rain to renew me.
