Today was better than yesterday at school. We practiced the father’s day program and the march for the ‘inauguration day of sports’ thingy.
Then, after school, I took a trufi downtown as always and bought ice cream, a ham and cheese croissant at Dumbo’s again!:) Then I called Sarah who couldn’t talk for long because she was at work, and then tried the Daehlins again but no luck. So, finally I tried Elisabeth and got to talk to her…yeah the day was better than the day before that’s for sure! Oh yeah, and I walked all around the downtown area looking for this certain kind of snack, and cashed my check. Anyway, that’s it. Now I need to post this butt long notes!

Well, today I found these amazing snacks called “Rosquitas de San Javier.” So yummy! I will have to remember to buy a bunch before I leave for MN in JUNE!!! :) I have so many foods and snacks that I want to share with all of you! :) I also bought these other Brazilian chocolate ball thingys...but they weren’t as good as the cook at BCOM used to make! Jane seriously makes them the best! :)

Well, I didn’t get to go to Parque Tunari today...or Lago del Eden (a beautiful and fun restaurant up in the mountains along a gorgeous brown lake (LOL) because of flooding. So, instead, I went to another restaurant with Wara, Patita, Andrea, and Mariana in Quillacollo...near where I live...and I had some ‘charque’ which is essentially llama jerky! YUM!!! :)
On the ride back, I was kinda silently praying to God about something while my friends talked and He gave me some really funny responses/answers/confirma
Later that night, I went to a pizzeria with Wara and we had some good talks about...stuff...hehe...
It was quite a long night...we walked around a long time trying to find a trufi to take us back home...

Church. It was a really hot day. I had saltenas again after church! Seriously every time I chomp into a saltena it feels like heaven on earth. You know how they say ‘the best things in life are worth waiting for.’ Yeah...waiting 7 years to once again eat a saltena in Bolivia was DEFINITELY worth waiting for! :)
After church, Wara and I went to an old favorite family restaurant called ‘Sucremanta’ and I had the special: Menudita...this really yummy soup! :)
Then, we headed to the downtown area and I called Sarah and told her about the day before’s funny ‘confirmations’ and then Wara got to meet her!
Once we got home, I attempted to ‘tan’ while listening to Celine Dion. I am way too white here...haha...but tanning was REALLY boring! I don’t get how some people enjoy it...I was going crazy just lying there. Then, after that I did about 20 minutes on the cross trainer/bike machine that Adela has here...
I watched 101 and 102 Dalmations... :)
Yeah this is really random...but hehe...oh well... :)
3/17/08:
Well, today I of course had classes and tutoring. I am now sitting alone in the house at the kitchen table eating some pizza with ketchup...seriously the best thing ever!! You all have got to try it...just try it!! If you don’t like it...you’re crazy!!! Haha...
Yeah, so not too much happened today, just the whole drama about this little girl who’s scared of me for some reason! :(
But yeah that’s seriously about it.
3/18/08:
Today. I of course had school. We practiced the father’s day song and poem pretty much the whole time. We did a little bit of actual school work but not much.
We got another new student in kinder today. Her name is Shirley. She was really shy.
We also practiced our father’s day program (which is tomorrow because Father’s Day is tomorrow here! :)) and marched around the school with the seniors for the practice of the ‘inauguration of sports day’ Thursday. We found out during that that it would happen in the afternoon instead of in the morning as it was written in our ‘agendas’! However, I am planning on leaving for Santa Cruz that day with Wara. Apparently we’re supposed to be leaving with Pr. Roger around noon. So there’s a little scheduling conflicts going on in my life here...but I am sure it’ll all work out. :)
Well, that’s all I got for now. I am finally caught up on updates! :)
GOD BLESS!
