Phrase of the day:
Llamas este el mes seco? Estaba lluviendo cada dia por dos semanas!... You call this the dry month? It's rained every day for two weeks!

Yup, my clothes have been hanging to dry for 3 days now. I may just pay and take it to the laundromat tomorrow. It's $6.50 for a large load to be washed, dried, and folded. (No idea about just drying though). Exciting, I know! I'll keep you posted.

Really, I only need it done asap because I am going to my city next week for four days. That's right! I find out tomorrow (Friday) where I will be living for the next two years, beginning in mid-August.

I am kind of hoping for the Sierra Region. (There are three regions: Highlands-Sierra, Coastal, Amazon-Oriente). Sierra is the only region that, for the most part, doesn't have to take malaria medicine. Plus, if I end up on the coast I'll have to eat seafood for sure!

But we shall see!

A picture from us playing soccer with some kids yesterday after class:
Tonight we had our second charla. This time it was for parents. We spoke about positive communication, and actually didn't have to speak too much. The parents, unlike the shy kids, seemed to take over the charla and discuss most things on their own.
We were just there to throw out ideas and bring up the topic. It went well...
Hope all is well back home!

  1. The suspense is killing us - where will you end up, and will you have to eat the dreaded food from the sea?!!
