XXVII : Heimkoman

Well, everything is official now. Loan money was not secured so I have to leave the study abroad program and return stateside. Mamman has purchased my return flight for 31. March back to DFW. My plan is roughly this: get temporary jobs to earn money and stay at home in Texas for a few months, before Clay and I take me and my things back to Portland, OR in my car. Since I have left home, school and work have never allowed me to stay in Texas for very long, so I am taking this opportunity to get some good family time in. Once I return to Portland and domesticate I doubt the opportunity would arrise as easily again.


My feelings on it are really mixed. I was not prepared to leave Germany so soon and I am missing out on a few potential trips, but I feel as though I have a lot of things to look forward to with my trip home. Like I told mom, I am basically 50/50 extremely disappointed and warmly satisfied. Looking at american dollars now, though, they look so dirty and fake! When are we going to get pretty money?
