With my time at Uncle Dick's Home nearing the end, I have been thinking a lot about things. I'm so anxious to get back to my friends, family, and normal life in America, but I'm also so torn and sad to leave my family here in the Philippines.
In my head (as well as via email to mom), I've been compiling a list of things I'm looking forward to about home. Also, I'm constantly reminded of the things I'm greatly going to miss about my home here.
