Every time I tried to tell you the words just came out wrong

On this lazy Sunday in Kosrae I stumbled across my own blog and got lost in its words.

It's been 8 months now, but I so want to be back in the game!  Whatever created my blog ennui has quietly left my system, and I hope to start writing again. I plan this summer to sit down with some diet coke and a shrimp po-boy and record some of my important Kosraen experiences and upload pictures. Nine months on this 42 square mile island has been wonderful and challenging and frustrating and sometimes all three at the same time. See the story I posted below, for which I won a free dinner! There's so much more to say, and I hope to say it.

We now have only 6 teaching days left at the high school and I'll be boarding a flight back to the United States in one month. This burned out teacher is ready to be done in so many ways, but I also know that parting with this island will bring some sorrow. Then it's on to trips in Hawaii and California before five weeks in Louisiana. 

Then...BANGLADESH. Yes, Helen of Troy will continue her wandering for one more year. I am surprised, too! 


How amazing does this sound? I.am.so.excited.
