Midterm

In four hours I´ll be taking my midterm exam-which sounds like will only consist of me reflecting/writing on my experiences in Ecuador thus far, as well as a commentary on Chief Seattle´s letter to Washington (beautiful.) This is like, reason 10045678 why I love the HECUA program.

With midterm exams, comes midterm vacations. This means a few more days on the beack in Canoa, a few days in Cuenca (Ecuador´s third largest city,) and Baños (named after it´s hot springs.)

Along with exams and vacation, midterm also brings a sense of introspection and general reflection. Without going into all the (sappy) details, I will simply say, I am different, and new, and changed-I like to think for the better.
