Today I made my first attempt to go for a run (after the banana slip incident at soccer) It was a bit more painful than planned, but I took it easy so as not to overdo it. I didn’t have class until 1 so I study for a quiz and got some homework done. I decided to head out early and walk to San Jose and catch the bus to LASP. Since I left before lunch (and since honestly my tummy is getting a little full of rice, beans, white bread and eggs) I decided to indulge and buy myself a turkey sandwich (with wheat bread and veggies and white meat…things I miss) We took the quiz for the first hour off class, split up into process groups and then heard from a Nicaraguan about the complicated and corrupt history of Nicaragua as well as Nicaraguan immigrants in Costa Rica (it is a very similar situation to Mexican immigration to the US). After class I came home and packed for the weekend. I’m so excited to get out of San José and get to the beach. It’ll be my first time on the Pacific since being here. I packed up my stuff, ate dinner with the family and then we headed out to do some errands. I talked un poquito on the telefono and then headed off to bed.
