Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! Did you have a nice day off?
Today went by really fast. I added Spanish Conversation to my schedule so I have it Monday and Wednesday from 11:40-12:40. After class, we ate, studied inside a little bit, but the girls are so loud, so we went outside to campus and sat on the lawn in front of the library. the weather was so nice today, it was probably in the 70s. Later a couple of us went to the store to buy food for family dinner. On our way back from the store we left our mark in Puebla by sticking our feet in wet cement. We made chili and guacamole and used the kitchen downstairs because it's actually quiet, and clean. Kayla and I are going to break the TV tomorrow, like turn down the volume and take the up button off. While we were washing dishes tonight we heard them talk about us saying something about "I don't think they can understand us". It's not a cultural difference, it's a class difference. It's like "my sweet 16" on MTV. Ask and they shall receive. The girl downstairs was really nice though so we ended up eating our chili with her and watching Friends. Then we went back upstairs to loud music, screaming girls, and video games on volume 80.
Sean got the sickness today. I haven't heard from him, but he went to the hospital to get antibiotics. Kayla doesn't feel very well right now, so we'll see. We're all just anticipating our turn so we can hurry up and get it over with.
The kids here dress up for class, and so when the Americans walk in in our t-shirts, jeans and tennis shoes, we kind of get stared at, as if we don't enough already. This weekend we are planning to hike the volcano. Other than that, not too much new information on this end. Inauguration tomorrow! It seems like everyone here will be watching it right along with you.
