So I know I have been slacking on the whole blog thing this week, but it has been pretty busy and unexciting. This week has been jammed with classes, tests, and lameness, so I do not really have any exciting news. They even opened up the ACM building so that people could do their homework today... on Saturday. Yes, I went like a nerd... but I spent 3 hours of my time watching my fiance's football game on webcast! =)
Anyways, a little good news is that I found out I will be doing my rural stay in Cocles, Costa Rica. It is along the Caribbean Coast and I will be working at a school there. I get to spend 3 weeks right next to the beach!! I will be living with an Afro-Costa Rican family which will help me with my research papers on the West Indian influence in Costa Rica.
After spending all day at school, I came home to a big tasty dinner. My Tico mom offered to paint my nails, so I went along with it. Little did I know that she is basically an expert and painted the cutest little flowers too! I'm pretty pumped.
Well, a group of us are going to head out now to find out a little bit about the Costa Rican nightlife... wish the "Machita" luck!
Until next time... =)
OMG are you really doing a paper on the West Indian influence in Costa Rica? You have to show it to me! I have some recommendations on Literature, Music, and History for that matter too!
