Not too much to report. Just looking for apartments and waiting to hear back from the school regarding text books and start date. I guess they are on Mexican time. I just wish I knew when I was actually going so I can book a flight. Then it would seem more real.
I have pretty much told everyone in my life about this big move except for my family - aunts, uncles, cousins, grandmother, etc. That should be interesting.
My replacement at my current school was hired last week. She seems really nice, but it is strange having my "replacement" around.
I have heard from my friends in Mexico and they are anxiously awaiting my arrival. It is good to know that I have some people to help me out with things if need be.
Mom is definitely feeling sad. She makes comments all the time: "Won't you miss this?" - about anything! Of course I will miss some things, but I have to do this! I just have to.

Lots done...
Since I have been back I have accomplished a lot... finished my Master's in Education, moved into the new house... still unpacking two weeks later, but it will get done. Now I am just trying to save money and make some with my business before I go away in just three short months and prepare for my dance recital which is only a month away!
I do think I found a great apartment in Cancun though. It is a two-bedroom penthouse with a pool in a great downtown location and some utilities included, but the rent is more expensive than I anticipated. Of course, it is still much cheaper than anything here of the same quality. It would be completely doable with a roommate, but now my "friend" is thinking twice about whether or not she wants to move.
I also have found a potential part-time job working for a travel agency. I could work some nights and weekends, plus I will be tutoring for extra cash, but I still need to save up now and be frugal when I get there.
