i have more to say.
actually i thought of the perfect words to describe the feeling i was trying to describe: inferiority and superiority. when i speak spanish, i feel inferior to the native speaker, and when i speak english, i don´t feel superior but i recognize that i have an advantage. this isn´t me being arrogant, because the feeling goes both ways you see. and yes, i know that no one is inferior to anyone, i´m just saying, it´s how i feel.
comments on the weather-today was the first time since i went to coast that i have felt hot. it´s cold here in the mountains. i usually sit in my house at night in 2 or 3 layers, a scarf, and wrapped in a shawl. but it hasn´t rained yet today, miraculously, the sun is shining, and it´s beautiful. also, and this is going to sound sad, but i just realized a few days ago that cuenca really is surrounded by mountians and yes, you can see them from the city! i hadn´t realized this because when i walk, i´m usually looking down and now i see that if i look around, i can see mountains. hooray for perspective!
in other announcements. i have officially changed my plane ticket and will be returning to the states on august 3. i´m out. thanks for reading.
