So I am going onto week four of working in Crete and I cannot tell you how fast it is going by!!!! I am literally learning so much and have been able to have so many great experiences. Like the other night the town I am staying in had a little party to celebrate the archaeologists working on the different excavations near by and basically thanking us for educating the world about these places and letting outsiders know about there home. And they had free food and live music and Greek dancing!!!!!! The dancing was definitely my favorite part. There are two different dances the four step and the eleven step. The four step is super easy until they start speeding up the tempo an I have yet to try and actually attempt the eleven step but possibly before I leave ill be able to master it. I've been very fortunate to be able to come here and travel around the island and see different places. So as I sit here with the Mediterranean Sea stretched out infront of me I am reminded of something that I thought of on my twentieth birthday. When I turned twenty I decided to call the next ten years of my life my roaring twenties basically I want to accomplish and do as much as possibly in my twenties. I have read how people set things aside because they think they have their entire lives but in reality life goes by fast and sometimes the hinges we set aside thinking we have forever to do may never actually get done. Some of my goals in my twenties is to graduate undergrad, get into a medical school or graduate program, travel every nook and cranny the world has to offer, and just enjoy life and all it has to offer. So only 23 days until I come home!!!! Again I just thank my parents for allowing me to experience this mind boggling journey and I miss everyone at home very much and can't wait to see everyone.
Miss you lots and love you tons!!!
Rebecca
