Hey Everbody!!!
I had a short week at school this week-only 3 days- and now im in the city for the night. Tommorow we leave for Limon!! I'm really excited!!! I'm just not excited about the 8 hr bus ride!! but it will be worth it. These were a good 3 days in the community. Im bonding with my family a lot now. on sunday they taught me a card game that we play a lot now. Sam came to the community on monday, so i was only in school for an hour to teach my class. then we went to the other interns house for lunch. After that, i got to leave the community and go with Sam to visit some other communities on another mtn. we got a ride to the bottom of our friends mtn, and then walked up to the first town,Guadalupe. we got to meet my friends Kate n Louisa's parents and tecahers and students cuz we visited thier houses and schools. After thatwe walked to the top of the mtn to Santa Fe, Lissie and Cassidy's town. we hung out and had dinner at Lissie's house and than we went to Cassidy's house for a sleepover. It was supposed to be movie nite, but our movie wouldnt work. cassidy's brother had jeepers creepers- but we were all too scared so movie nite lasted about ten minutes. The next morning i had to get to the bottom of the mtn to meet up with my teachers to get a ride to school. I left a little late and i was worried i wasnt gonna make it, but luckily a teacher from Santa Fe gave me a ride on his motorcycle to the bottom. My first moto ride went really well!! I dint fall off or anything!! School was pretty uneventful this week. My adult classes are going well! They were upset to hear that we werent having class on thursday. A cow died in our village this week, so thursday is going to be sopa de vaca day at school. They were preparing everything on wednesday. all the kids bring in omething to help out, and then everybody in the town gets some soup. Wednesday afternoon we got a ride from out teacher all the way to San Isidro so we didnt have to take the bus. we spent the afternnon just doing some errands and hanging out. we went out to dinner at a new place tonite. it was really good. when we got back, me n cassidy went to the supermarket to get some fruit and snacks for the bus. when we got back we were told we had a meeting in my room, so i went upstiars and found a surprise party in my room!!!! My friends had put up a feliz cumpeanos banner and ballons and everything. Lina's mom is the cakemaker in her town, so she made me a chocolate cake and they put trick candles in it for me. It was so cool. I had so much fun!!! I cant believe they surprised me!! After we ate cake i opened up all the cards that everyone at home sent. Thank you guys so much!!!! Its really great to hear from you all!! You all made my birthday really great. Me n emily werent tired after everyone else went to sleep so we decided to play soccer in the hall. we thought it was working pretty well, until the ball hit some guys door-so we ended hotel soccer after that. we decided to paint eachothers nails -cuz that was a little calmer and less disruptive. i stayed up till 12 to be awake for my b-day(corny i know) and then i went to sleep. im leaving for limon in the morning so i hope everyone has a good weekend. Happy Birthday Papa nd Anthony!!! I love you all and i cant wait to tell you about the beach.
