Day 41- El Penultimo Dia

I started packing today.  Which is quite possibly the saddest opening statement for this blog that I have written.  And it has been raining all afternoon and I think that I might be running a fever.  So overall, not a great second to last day in San José.  But there are some good things that came of today.  I went, for one last time, to the artisan's market.  Gotta love the look on the vendors' faces when they speak to you in English and you respond back in Spanish.  I get to have a lot of interesting conversations that way.
After that, we went to La Cafe Musa Confusa, which is a hidden little gem of a restaurant close to Veritas.  It's decor is very cool, with abstract paintings of all sorts of famous American actors, like Clint Eastwood, Marilyn Monroe, and Audrey Hepburn.  A very cool place for lunch.
I was scheduled to have class again today, so I came home with my purchased items and began to pack.  Which I hate doing.  I don't really know why I hate packing so much, but I do.  I loathe it.  And then it was back to Veritas at 2:45 for my 3:00 o'clock class.  Which, as it turns out, never happened because the teacher left our final papers with our final grades on them in the main office.  Final grade of a 98 in my Spanish Lit class :)  But then I had to raise back to the house to beat the rainstorm that raged all afternoon.  I showed up my tico brother on Wii Mario and then I took a nap.  A very long nap.
I tried to go out tonight, but I was just not feeling it.  So I came back to write to all of you and then to go to sleep.  Tomorrow is my last day in Costa Rica.  I am ready to be home, but I am not ready to leave this place and the people that I have met here.  I wish I could be in two places at once, because then I could be with everything that I love all of the time.  And I could double my multitasking.  But alas, it is not to be.  See everyone soon.
