Time is going SO FAST! I can't believe I have only 5 weeks left!
This week was a very relaxing week. I just went to class and hung out with my fam in the evenings. This week I only had class on Monday and Tuesday because this Thursday was the changing of powers from the old president to the new one so all public employees got the day off. Hmm America should take some notes.
On Wednesday I taught English to he kindergartners again. I love going there! They are all so happy to see me whenever I come. Whenever I walk in they run up to me and attack me with hugs and say "Teacher Lauren! Teacher Lauren!" They also love to show me all of the work they did during the week on the days that I'm not there. They are so cute, I'm might take one home with me :)
Later on Wednesday, my friend Savannah came over to get her nails done by my host mom. She just hung out alllll evening with us and it was so fun. My host mom taught us the Spongebob theme song in Spanish. I bet the neighbors were thankful for that.
On Thursday morning, Savannah and I went to the pool. It was very nice but sunshine is limited in these winter days. After the pool I went to central park and read...........I swear I'm not lying. I really did that. By myself. Then I met Sarah for lunch at our favorite restaurant Spoon! They have the best sandwiches, salads, and frozen cappuccinos!
Thursday night, I went to the other English class that I teach. My friend Emily and I were the taste testers of the rice krispie treats that the students made. Rough job.
After English class, Savannah, Amy, Adam, and I went out with the two guys that run the English program that we help out with. They taught us all how to dance the different Costa Rican dances they do here. Everyone here is just born with dancing abilities. Us Americans are not.
Friday, Savannah and I went back to the pool with Amy and Adam this time. There was lots of sun day thank goodness! After the pool we got some ice cream at our favorite Colombian ice cream place.
Later, Savannah, Sarah, Emily, and I went out for pizza and then they came over to my house to watch a movie!
Saturday was the Costa Rica Summer finals for soccer. Saprissa V. Liga. A couple of us went out to watch the game. My host family are huge Saprissa fans so naturally I had to root for them....and they won!!!!
This week was a much needed week to just enjoy Heredia :)
