May 20th, OK..this is the last uneventful day for a while..promise.

I woke up around 8 today, and got to my second day of tough work.. I ended up folding pamphlets until 11.30. At this point during the day, I was feeling pretty well. Then we had breakfast. Eggs and Beans. Not too extravagent, right? I felt sick anyway.
I went back to my cabin to lie down and feel better. SO of course..I watched Little Miss Sunshine and my new movie that is pretty much on repeat down here- The Office. I passed out for a few hours after, and by the time I woke up it was dinner time, and I was feeling much better.

I like helping with meals. It's one thing I feel like I can do and actually take a load off of someones hands. I helped set the table for dinner, serve food and drinks, and after, clean the table and put chairs away. They never once have asked me to contribute food or cash for food, so along with the different foods I'll buy and donate to the kitchen, I like helping.
Now..it was time for..SCHOOL! This class was made up of Roberto, Paty, and myself. Ramido hadn't eaten since 9 that morning, so he totally was a rebel and didn't go to class. He ate food instead..pfft. The things that gets me about school, is that before I got here, none of these people from Tecolutla had a desire, or even a need to learn English. There are very few only English speakers who travel all that way down here, and the tourists that do make it down here..only speak Spanish anyway! I like that they want to learn now..it makes me feel a little less alone in my quest to learn this language. I think it also makes everyone a a little more sympathetic which isn't a bad thing either. Paty wants me to put of little signs around the house with names of what thigns are. So on the stove, I just write "stove" on a piece of paper, and tape that baby on there, etc etc with other things.

After class, I tried something especially fun. My dad had helped me load skype onto my laptop when I was here the first time, but I had yet to try it until tonight. I got to see my little brother, and my dad, and Beans! It felt like Christmas.
