I'm still Alive! hehe

I talked my my parents last night and they told me you guys were waiting anxiously for another post, so here it is! Sorry my computer access has been so limited and I still haven't found a computer that I can upload my pictures on...but maybe thats good cause then you'll really want to see me when I get home! :)

I couldn't ask for a better family. My tica mama cooks some good food and we talk to them for hours at night. Last night after I got off the phone with my fam my tico dad came in my room and asked me if i wanted help with my paper. We all sat at the kitchen table and they helped me make corrections and write. It was so funny and we just laughed and laughed...it definately did my heart good cause it felt more like my real home.

I placed into intermediate Spanish so I have to write my papers in Spanish but they aren't too long and since my family and my awesome roomate helps me I am doing good. My teacher is awesome...she is 25 and super fun and stylish. The school is so small, there's only 7 people in my class including me. We get to practice speaking so much...I love it. I wish classes at home were more like this.

Other than that we have field trips in the afternoon sometimes, and if we don't then we go to the mall, walk around town...pretty much the same stuff people do at home. The food here isn't very different either, the other night we had fried chicken and fries for dinner....with rice and salad of course lol. They eat rice a lot but thats great with me, i love it.

Thanks SO much for all the comments, I loved reading them! Someone please show Alyss and Courts how to comment cause the two chicas can't figure it out. haha. It's so nice to hear what's going on at home.

Lar-it is SO important for me know what the cubbies are doing. and can I just say HECK YES!!! First place baby!

Besitos! :)

I am so excited to hear that you have such a great family!! I can't wait to hear your spanish after you get home.
What is the mall like? Any good stores? Is there a Steve and Barry's? I just love that place!

Well in that case, you should know the sox are in first too.

Are you going to be uber good at espanol when you get home? I've been asking guys at work how to say certain stuff in preparation for mexico. Today I learned "Shut up, old man". (Not that I plan on using that in mexico..we were joking around, talking about the cubs/sox of course)

It's still sort of weird you not being around. Everyone is gone but me and adam and dad..so things are dead quiet.

Le pierdo y te quiero!

candi--my spanish should be way way better. the mall is like ours...it has 3 floors, lots of stores w/mostly the same stuff, but the only real clothes store thats the same is aeropostale. i WISH they had a steve and barrys lol.
