I have to say, this was one of the most awesome days I've had since I've been here. We saw waterfalls, monkeys, lizards, sloths, raccoons, an armadillo, centipedes, hot Israeli girls... it was quite a trip. Here's the pics: I wish there were words to describe it all but it's still too soon for my brain to process.... read more

Well, the washing machine is still broken on campus so I had to go to another classmate's place to do my laundry. It was really refreshing to take my clothes from the wash and put them in a dryer, rather than hanging them on some dirty clothesline to "dry" in the dust and rain. (Yeah, it doesn't make any sense to me either) I taught my first solo lesson last night and I feel like it was pretty average. I had some material issues and time management problems, but I worked through it. It just wasn't up to the level of performance that I expect from myself in front of a classroom.

This first weekend has been AWESOME! On Friday night all of us from TEFL went out and hit the spots... unfortunately we hit them a little late in some cases (Bambu Jam) and not at all for others (Republik). But it was still awesome to hang out with everybody, and we even managed to get some of the staff here at TEFL to join us so that was cool. Saturday though... well that's a whole other story. Yesterday I attended what was basically a gay booze cruise/house music party. Although there were a lot of gay guys on the boat there were also a lot of really really hot women! Which is why I went. Well, that and because I needed desperately to shake my booty after being beat-deprived for almost a week. The party was ... read more
