Here we go again!
Stressful but great times at 6th Street, I'm starting to feel the groove and flow of the house. Although it is not running smoothly the past days because of some little troubles, I'm having no doubts that I will survive this year(even without my dog). I feel accepted and loved at L'arche which is the most important thing about my year of service. I start feeling and experiencing the hard and emotionally exhausting parts of being an assistant who cares for people with developmental, intellectual disabilities but I have to say: I love the work.
I'm sorry for maybe getting too sensitive right now, but I feel I kinda need it tonight. It's 1 am and I'm sitting here very sleepy thinking about life...
Certain core members make my day just by being around, they show me what life is truly about. I learned so much about myself in the past 3 days, por ejemplo I feel comfortable to hold people accountable, even though I'm still pretty bad at it. In some moments I am great at doing things, sometimes I have to accept that I'm not perfect. Failure is the best way to grow though. Thanks to all the other assistants for helping me out, it's amazing to have you guys.
I can even overcome my laziness, if you believe it or not.
But as good as it sounds.. I need the upcoming weekend! I need relief, that's what I experienced in the last days, I need some time for myself, get refreshed to jump into another busy but hopefully awesome week.
Just wanted to give you the opportunity to witness my life here in depth, I really appreciate that you are reading this!
Oh, before I go to bed I have to tell you this: A few people told me that my English is "killer" and "awesome" and "good"! That just made me so happy and proud that I had to tell you, whouhouu !
Miss you guys, I will try to make some photos maybe for the next post, hopefully this will work!
Take care and enjoy!
Yo this is my new blog!
