Ahhh, nothing like the weekend. I just made it through my first week of language classes, which I wasn't sure if it was possible. This week has definitely been a challenge with class in Spanish for 4 hours straight with a 1/2 hour break in the middle. I happened to luck out and not have as much homework as a lot of other people have. My homework is a lot of workbook stuff, so it's tedious but not as difficult as other people's work is. I'm really glad to be in the class that I am because it's a lot of grammar, which can be annoying, but is really helpful when speaking or having a conversation with other people. I was a little discouraged today because I had to turn in a draft of a paper that I wrote and there were a lot of errors in the paper, like in every sentence. But besides that, my professor is really nice and is focused on the work, but also is willing to answer questions that I have about Guatemala or anything really. She doesn't like the fact that we have this strict schedule to follow everyday, which is comical.
Besides class, there's a lot of time to walk around and explore. The other night my roommate, Kristin, and I went to a restaurant named Dona Luisa's and bought ice cream and cookies for a total of 14Q which is about $2 in American money. Everything is so cheap, that makes me happy.
This weekend we're going to the Pacific Coast, I don't remember what beach we're going to, but the beach has black sand. The words "all-inclusive resort" make me super excited. We're leaving tomorrow morning at 10 and returning about 4 on Sunday. I'm pretty excited except for the fact that the drive there is about 2 or 3 hours. I'll have to let you all know how it is.
If anyone that goes to Central Church is reading this, tell all the kids I say hi and that I miss them all and that I am thinking about them! Love you all!!!!
Ok, well, I'm going to start my homework because I don't really have time for it this weekend cause we're going to be on the Coast!!! Maybe after I get back from the coast I'll try to put pictures up here!!
Love you all!!!
