Monday 10/6/08

Today was back to reality and the routine. Back to the 5 am wake up and run (how I wish this could be done on the beach and not the run down roads of Tibas) This is actually my last week of Spanish classes and my Core Seminar class. Next week we’re headed to Nicaragua for two weeks, then I’ll go work on an internship for a few weeks and finish the trip with a trip to Cuba (fingers still crossed as we are still waiting for official permission from Washington D.C.) So, other than it being my last Monday of Spanish, it was very typical. After class and lunch, I met up with my group for a final presentation we have in class on Thursday. I eventually made my way back home to spend the afternoon doing homework and eating some delicious pineapple. I’ve been sitting out in on the dining room table to do my homework rather than hiding in my room to do it and although I don’t nearly get as much work done, Pamela and I have fun doing our homework together. This week I have my 3 biggest assignments (a paper, and 2 presentations) so the entire afternoon was dedicated to homework. After a nice family dinner, Pamela and I watched Patito Feo. Next thing I knew I was drooling as Pamela was turning off the TV and lights and saying goodnight. Many nights have ended in this fashion.
