I confess that in the last few days I had what I think was a nervous breakdown. It was less to do with anything going on in my social life (I'm never really stressed or depressed in that aspect for some reason), but more to do with my academic/professional life. I left my apartment in Lisbon to go back to my family home, not even presenting my final project of the semester, and worse, not even telling any of my friends but one. I ignored my phone and facebook for some time, only having to courage to check it today. I in a strange place at the moment, between feelings of guilt for not having told anybody that I was leaving and all the worry I caused, and the feelings of joy for having so many great friends that care so much about me. Thankfully I'm feeling a bit better now and plan on returning soon, and yes, I have given everyone a status update concerning what happened, with everybody being so thoughtful.
I really am blessed to know and be friends with so many great people
