One down...millions to go

Today we had our first presentation at our school. It went pretty well minus the deflating balloons the kids were playing with outside. There was a big party for Valentines Day and we all ate hot dogs (Mmmmmm) and pure sugar. Needless to say after our presentation we got the hell out of there. I didn´t get out without getting some sweaty sticky kisses from the kiddies, but I´ll take it since that´s all the love I´ll get this Valentines.
Summer seems to have arrived this week just as predicted. The sun is pretty sweltering and despite my ¨best¨ efforts (meaning the sunscreen in my face cream) I still get a little too much sun. I think I´m going to have to break out the flip-flops this afternoon. The mornings are still jacket weather and climbing up the mountian that my school sits upon would´ve been difficult to climb with anythingn less than hiking boots.
This weekend I plan on checking out the SDA church I found and may or may not be invited to lunch with this doctor who´s Health Store/Spa I went to this week and got a killer massage for half off (besides going to heaven, being an SDA has it´s perks). And then on Sunday we all pack our hippy backpacks and go out into the field to practice our skillz and see more of what we´re about to be immersed into.
Things are going well. Even though Spanish seems to be slow to get a handle on everything is good when the sun in shining and there are avocados to be eaten.
