It has begun, I am now home. Peru. This is the story of my trip here.

It starts thursday morning, on the fourteenth day in August. I woke up at 10 A.M. and started my last day in North America, more importantly, Lodi. I will let you know, this whole last week, I have been dying, slowly. I had moved to Peru last week, in my heart (and I write that half sarcastically and half earnestly). And I hope none of my friends take this the wrong way, but my last days in lodi were emotionally difficult because I felt like my life in Lodi started to fade out before my life in Peru even came. BUT thats over. My last day in California was great. I had lunch with a friend I hadn't seen in forever, I had a delicious dinner with my family and friends, and got to chill all night with my close friends. Anyways, I stayed up late with my friends, took a shower and left for the airport at 3am. I arrived at sacramento at 4, and waited till 6 to take-off. I slept on the plane to Houston, and wondered around the airport in Texas for another 4 hours. Good news though, I finished a good book with all this time (The Giver, by Lowery). I feel asleep on the plane again, and woke up not knowing where I was, I soon found out. I finally got to Peru, got through customs and got my bags. Now to find my ride. There was a room that was not very big, but still big (it was as tall as it was long). I knew exactly who I was looking for, but I couldn't find them. Literally, I scooted around with my baggage cart for about 30 minutes. Nothing. Finally I saw a group of people that I saw in Houston, who I suspected were students, standing with a man. I approached them and found myself with the right group. The suspects and I joined John, the man, and drove back to campus. I was showed to my room, and found a sleeping person in there (it was midnight). I awoke and quickly met one of my room mates, chris. Breakfast was accompanied by new people. It took half the day to really get to know some people. But I am very excited(still) about this next semester. There are roughly 25 students here and a few staff. My new home is beautiful.
