• Tried to burn the apt down today. Had the gas stove and elective burner all running at the same time and could not get them off. It probably took me over an hour to figure it all out. You also have to light the stove with a match every time. This should be fun.
• Saw my classroom and school. My room is small and ghetto but everyone at the school seems great. There are cows that walk around everywhere.
• Watching the first thunderstorm roll across the hills. No rain yet, but lots of thunder.
• Everything in my apt. are mini. The Refrigerator and couctches. Kind of funny when you are 5’10.
• School bus picks me up right in front of the apt. Like we are kids again, but this time my legs don’t fit behind the seat.
• Everyone here has been so nice. Everywhere you turn, people say hi. Especially my doorman who carries my groceries up for me, and greets and helps me lug all my stuff upstairs. Oh, my face wash exploded all over my bag, so in my mini laundry room I tried to wash out the stuff that got ruined.
• I realized today that I have not bitten my nails since I got here. I think that is almost a full week! How amazing is that.
• Went downtown today by bus. It was fun, I saw so much and it reminded my of down town Los Angeles. We took the bus for about 50 cents. I saw everything from baby chickadees that had been died different colors, to Catholics at church, to getting your shoes fixed for less then two dollars.
• The doorman called and told me today, that I am not aloud to dry my clothes on the porch. When I asked why, he said because it was the near the entrance. I think that someone in the building complained because all I had was one shirt up to try.
• I asked my boss about dress code and what teacher were aloud to wear, she proceeded to take of her jacked, under witch she had a tight little red number. She then shimmied to for me. She then explained that she will wear a jacked over her shirt but then she said that if it get to hot, she takes it off and does not care.
• Figured out why the refrigerator does not work, the door does not shut.
• Soccer in Colombia is amazing. I learned more swear words then I thought possible and was amazed by the spirit for even a small local team.
