today i sat on the beach and it was great. i left my phone in the seminary so i would lose track of time. for 5 hours i did nothing more than sit, admire the beach, have a few beers, and eat eggs. thats right. eggs. you pay 2 reais for this little bundle of 12 quail eggs, or something. hard boiled. and you sit there and peel them, dip them in salt, and devour. its very zen like. it was great.
i have three days of research to do left here, and quite a bit to accomplish before i go back to Belem, but once thats out of the way all i have to do is write it up. which honestly isnt that bad, and i already have most of the background research done.
it seems so strange how quick the whole thing is wrapping up. its suspenseful. but theres also a lot waiting to happen back home that i am excited about. i dont really know what exactly will happen with any of it, but by this point ive learned that thats the whole point anyway. its...nice, to just let go and stop trying to control everything. even if it means you get lost or such things along the way. you always end up finding your way again. and i feel pretty settled...in a non-settled completely up in the air sort of way.
i realize that makes no sense.
