Day 7

Hola! como estas mis amigos! - I had my first Spanish lesson today.... I'm sure that is about all I got haha, and I'm not even sure that is write.-

Anyway today was a construction day up at the school, and I finally got into the swing of things. When we first arrived Lauren and I went over the history of the garden and greenhouse and we talked about what needed to be done, what needed fixing, and ideas to improve on what is already there. haha there is a lot that needs to be done, and I highly doubt I will be able to take care of all of it by the time I have to come home, but I did tell her that I would work out a plan and get it all set up so they can follow it after I left. For today though, I worked on fixing the compost pile. They had started one a few weeks ago, and it wasn't really done properly and wasn't being cared for. So I finished closing the structure off with mud-brick, and I put down some plastic in the bottom to help conserve moister. So I still need to make a roof for it, but I didn't have enough time to finish that, and we need to go by a little more wood and plastic. After that I fixed a fence along the back wall of the school's play ground. The wiring had come off of the posts so I just had to re-attach it. It is amazing how much harder the simpilest tasks are to do when you are at this altittude haha. And I was suprised at how heavy the mud bricks actually are.

After we finished doing construction at the school for the day we came back down to town, and had lunch. I went to the local market and I found Kraft Mac and Cheese haha, so of course I had to buy it haha. At around 4pm Liz and I had our first Spanish lesson, I would say that I probably learned more in those 2 hours than I did in my entire first year of JR High haha. Now to be fair that was probably mostly because I actually tried, and because my teacher only speaks very little English, so the entire lesson was in Spanish haha, which makes it a little more intense but way cool.

Around 6pm was dinner, and I started to plan my lesson for tomorrow. Today I found out that I am leading the computer class tomorrow, so I have been online researching computer terms in Spanish all night haha, I have finally got a lesson plan and I am pretty confident that I will be able to pull it off.

Well Buenos noches mis amigos. Asta Manjuana!
