Me faltan horas en el día

I was just talking to a friend online and realized an important lesson I've learned. Sorry for the gramatical errors.


Thats what this year is about, losing yourself and finding yourself again. Itd be nice if we coud go back to the beginning and knowing everything we know now, do it a whole lot better (learn euskera, get rid of that accent, read in spanish more, personally, write more, get better grades, be more interactive with friends, not be on the computer so long, watch more movies...) but the whole point is that we didnt do all that because we didnt know what itd be like and thats exactly what this whole things about.one of the most important lessons ive learnt here is to truly value my time. Ive learnt to forget about stupid tv programs and take an interest in movies, ive learnt that writing poetry in another language thats not yours is not imposible, ive learnt to understand euskera and hold a basic conversation or talk about what i did yesterday and what im doing tomorrow, ive made a ton of new friends who ill never forget and miss dearly (not only from here, but from aroud the world), ive learned what its like to plan your own trips and deal with everyone thinking youre just too young, ive seen the three autonomous communities of spain, ive walked 112km in 5 days, i have read books in spanish even if they havent been at a very high level, ive even learnt a basis of latin. But the most important thing ive learnt is that there arent enough hours in the day everything i want to do, and thats the greatest feeling in the world.
