THE BRITISH ARE COMING! THE BRITISH ARE COMING!

I'll start off this post explaining the title...

Tess and I get home from school Tuesday and we go get a Belikin as we do every afternoon to calm ourselves from the day...we are on the picnic table and as I begin writing my lesson I hear a crowd of people talking. I lift up my head to find 65 British soldiers walking to the front door of Pedro's Inn (our hostel)! UMM HELLOOOOO hot boys! All 16 of our jaws dropped to the core of the Earth. For 16 girls this is probably the best thing that could have happened to us on this trip. Ha Ha! Any who, we all went out to dinner and had a good time that night. (Heather: I still have #10 and even though it was tough to resist...he is still my main man ha ha. not sure what mom was saying about #11?!)

So Wednesday did turn out to be rough for most of the girls. Luckily after dinner on Tuesday I came back to Pedro's with Tess and we watched Toy Story 2 with our new friends.

School is great! All the students are very friendly (overly friendly at times)! I started implimenting my PE ideas yesterday afternoon (wed) and everyone was impressed! PLUS the kids had a great time! I started off with a group walk/jog and then had student lead stretching. After they were warm I had them break into three groups and do the "human knot" thing. I'm trying to incorporate some critical thinking :) Then we played Junk Food Tag. One of my favorite games. I of course had to modify it because of their way limited equipment, but it opened my eyes to seeing that I don't have to have all this different equipment to show kids how to have fun and be healthy! My life skills classes are also going well. I am covering for a teacher this whole week and so the students have really respected my head teacher role in their classrooms. They are all so curious about the States and the students that we teacher there. One more funny note on teaching: I was grading papers the other day for a Form 2 (sophomore) class, and on top of the papers of a few boys in the class was their phone number, ha ha! High school boys are the same where ever you go! (SOO immature!) We have an assembly after school today about the history of San Pedro which should be very interesting!

We went to a 2 year old birthday party last night--the child of the superintendent. What a HUGE party...loud music, great food, good memories! I will post some pictures today of all this stuff!

Sooo it is almost TGIF...whoop whoop! I cannot wait to sleep in this weekend and eat a good breakfast. With no kitchen, fridge, and cockroaches we are very limited with what food we can eat!

Saturday Tess, myself, and M.V. (our friends Munya and Viktor) are going kayaking and so I am really looking forward to that! And getting some sun of course!

KP- Yes I did bring that "stuff" and it is awesome...the bathrooms obviously just smell horrid so our little secret really helps! I cannot wait to see the sunset pictures... and don't you worry...I will NEVER EVER forget where home is. Miss you more and more every day!

Heather- I promise I am going to post pictures today! The internet is unbelievably slow here and we can only get facebook at the hostel...and I hate being on my computer when I can be out by the pool, walking around, etc! I am so glad you and Chad had a great trip! I cannot wait to see and hear about it! LOVE YOUUU!

I hope everyone else is AWESOME! Thanks so much for reading my blog! I so glad you guys get a good chuckle out of all this! (it really is like 20 times better when your hear!!) ;) love love love you all!
