Firstly, I am submitting this Flog late, it’s now Monday morning, because I completely forgot to turn it in on Friday, and unfortunately, it slipped my mind over the weekend as well. This oversight is entirely on me, and I recognize that I need to be more mindful about keeping up with deadlines, especially as the semester comes to a close. Additionally, I missed class on Tuesday because I was feeling very unwell. I ate something that didn’t sit right with me, which triggered a flare-up of my ongoing stomach issues. This discomfort eventually developed into a migraine, which made it difficult to function for the rest of the day. That said, reflecting on the past week, and really the semester as a whole, I’d say the experience has been a bit bittersweet. I’ve learned a lot and grown through the challenges, but I also feel mentally and emotionally ready for the break. I’m really looking forward to the summer, both to relax and to spend time with my family, whom I miss so much. Being far from home, especially my loved ones in Bolivia, has been tough at times, but it’s also helped me appreciate them even more.
