I can't lie and that's the truth. I'm just a bad liar so I've given up faking. I had every intention of writing a blog entry about holy week and posting pictures from a live reenactment of the crucifixion (heck, I may post those at some point anyways just to give you all some eye candy) but that is just not on my mind right now, so why pretend? I am homesick today, incredibly, undeniably homesick. Throughout the trip I've had moments when I've missed certain aspects of home, certain people, certain foods, but today I was overcome and overwhelmed with longing for everything and even the desire to leave Mexico. I'm hoping this wave of depression will pass and that I don't spend my last 2 weeks counting down the days, but I was totally floored by homesickness today.

What's worst is, I don't get internet in my house, so when I first attempted to be cheerful in my email writing this morning and broke down, I was a pathetic, bawling mess in the classroom of my school! What a disgusting sight to think about, crying alone in a room full of empty seats facing an empty white board forced to occupy the corner for its outlet adjacency. But I think I needed that good cry and now I can just push through it. It's a shame I wasn't in the privacy of my room, but at least it's over. Now, now, I'm not that strong, I'm still pretty shaken up, but I should be able to keep it together for the rest of the day and by Monday when I'm forced to face the emails of my friends and family, I won't have a meltdown in class.
