It is Friday (some day in September - I already don't know what day it is) and it is suppose to rain non-stop for the WHOLE weekend. Sept and Oct are already supposedly the worst months for rain, but a whole weekend...come on, this sucks!
We already have been receiving a tremendous amount of rain (or at least I think it is tremendous). It use to only rain in the afternoon for about 2 hours, I barely remember those days. Lately it has been raining earlier and earlier in the afternoon and it usually lasts all the way through the night. I have been waking up to sunshine and no rain...today is a different day! Today I woke to rain.
Well, I guess the weather man was correct when he called for a "cloudy day, today and tomorrow." Yes, cloudy...I see that, but rain alllll weekend...thanks Tropical Storm with some name, by California!
Ok, enough about the rain. I am sorry!
Not much has been going on which is why I haven't written in a while. Work is pretty much the same - fun and disorganized. I did take on teaching another school that is outside of my working contract hours; therefore, I now receive Spanish class every week for two hours, except on Fridays still. I still don't understand why not?
I officially got sick last week...like Guatemala was saying to me, "I am going to show you who's boss. You think you can come to my country and eat anything you want and do whatever you want? Do ya? Do ya?" Yea, it kicked my ass!!! But thanks to that I lost like 3 lbs. :) ha
Worst way to go on a diet!
I have been here for 2 months now! yea, yea...and still loving every second of it. I think (think) that if I don't ever get that trip leading position I want (with in a couple of years here), I am going to head to Costa Rica. But not for a while...I am crossing my fingers that I am able to stay in Antigua though... I can't get enough!!! Or I guess, if I run out of money I will have to leave. Cross your fingers that doesn't happen either. :)
With this current job, I really don't make enough money to live off of alone. I guess I could do private tutoring, there can be good money in that. With the trip leading position I wouldn't have to get another job.
Tourist season is coming to a slow stop now. At the spanish school (the sister school of where I teach) there are quite a few students, but nothing like during the high season. At times there can be anywhere from 100-200 students coming through a week. That is in credible. This school is one of many (like 15-20) in Antigua alone. During the day and at night you see less and less people out, kind of sad.
I have made a new friend that is studying at the school and doesn't leave until the end of November. It is nice to know someone new, and one who is not leaving in a week. It gets tough meeting people and saying goodbye. She seems cool and normal, I hope this doesn't change. I need some normal people in my life! ha
Nothing else new...I will report back soon!
