It was recently brought to my attention that our time here is continually running out, which is a slightly terrifying thought. Looking backward already brings back fond memories while looking forward brings up exciting possibilities. However, we seem to be gaining more from this experience than just good memories. Through our internships and our classes, we are learning more and more about the world in which we live and more importantly the idea that we are not the only ones living in it. We discussed in Vernon's class today the reasoning behind our interest in studying and interning in Cape Town, admitting this shows that this blog entry is late... However, we discussed the idea of coming to Cape Town to make a difference, but the difference seems to be made within ourselves. Although we seek to change the world to make it a better place for humanity, we are the ones that are changing and learning from this experience. As we approach the end of our trip here, we must recognize this change and decide how we are going to use this new found knowledge to try to make a difference in world.
