Day 19

Well today was great! I mean that it really made me happy that I could talk to my family after not seeing them for twelve days. That really made me feel better and my home sickness is getting less and less with each passing day. This is turning out to be a great next couple of weeks! I didn't know if you knew this but it is going to be three weeks here in two days! Can you believe that because I can't! You can't live in the past, because that is your downfall in the end. I can't just sit here and live in Colorado when I'm in New Zealand. That can't happen. Rather I need to face the fact that I'm here and I can't change it! I need to think about making more friends here and worry about making new ones in Colorado later. After all I only have six months here, and two more years in Colorado. I didn't meet as many people today, but I'm working on it! I saw the firls play rugby and some of my friends are on the team and they played really well today (52 to 0)! I am so lost! But when you are blind for awhile you get use to the darkness, and suddenly you aren't afraid anymore. I'm not afraid anymore.
