Another one of those damned buzzing headaches last night, all night. Better this morning. Only 6 days left here. I can do this. If I haven't gotten brain damage yet I doubt that the next 6 days will add to the possibility.
Today will be the last day of my English club in Sodk. I'll take a world map and we'll talk a bit about where the US is and maybe even the difference between North America, Central America and South America. It's one of my pet peeves that the US has become synonymous with America.
Saturday will be the last Project Design workshop. I'm so pleased with the way it has gone. Everyone is so enthusiastic, with many ideas flowing. I feel badly for going off and leaving them. I do so hope the other volunteer can find a way to support this project before he leaves, either by investing some of the money he has from the US benefactor or by writing one of the PC grants available.
I'm basically packed. Now down to the details. Will everything that I have set aside to carry with me fit into my backpack? Will I be able to ship what I've set aside for a reasonable amount?
I'm so excited, looking forward to my trip through Georgia - a place I hadn't really even considered. Now I've learned that western Georgia is the site of the famous tale about Jason and the Argonauts and the Golden Fleece. I'll pass through Stalin's birthplace, though I can't say I'm thrilled to even be in the vicinity of his childhood.
But today is today. I've become a short-termer and find myself looking forward, find it difficult to focus on finishing my tasks here. But focus I must and finish I must. And so I will.
