bueno, primero cambie casas esta semana. Mi primera familia tuvo prolemas familiar entonces fue mejor para todos si cambié. Y adivinan ¿dónde estoy ahora? !En la familia de Deanna! Estamos compartiendo un cuarto por las proximas tres semanas. Ahorita es muy divertido y tambien no duermo tan temprano como antes. :) Hablamos mucho en español casi todo el tiempo!
Segunda, algo interesante esta semana es que no fui a Educarte el lunes. ¿Porqué? Por que todos los choferes de bus en todo el pais estaban protestando para mas seguridad. Entonces la ciudad fue muy tranquila. No escuché ninguna persona gritando "guate, guate" or otras ciudades.
No puedo pensar en mas que estoy haciendo. Mi nueva familia es muy amable. A veces puedo ayudar en cocinar las comidas cual me gusta muchisimo. Me encanta cocinar.
First off, I have changed houses. My original family was having some problems within the family so it was better that I changed. I was sad to leave them so adruptly but hopefully I can see them in the future. Right now, I am living with Deanna´s family. They are really nice. Yesterday we recieved another student so Deanna and I are now sharing a room. Its been fun to have you around more to talk to in Spanish! As a result I am not going to bed as early as I did which is a good thing. Now I can sleep though the night unlike before I was waking up super early.
Secondly, there was a bus strike on Monday so I didn´t get to go to my volunteer project. All the drivers in the whole country were protesting against violencia for the buses! It made a pretty quiet day here because no one was yelling where the bus was going. I never thought that no buses would decrease the sound here so much. Wow.
Not much else going on yet this week. I am doing extremely well and can´t believe I only have three more weeks. And Semana Santa is next week! Happy Easter soon!

Esta Semana Ha Venido y Se Ha Ido
Esta Semana ha ido ya! Mi novio vino a visitarme sobre su vacacion de primavera. En las tardes paseamos en la ciudad y con mi familia. El miercoles fuimos al Volcan Pacaya. Pude ver la lava y mucha rocas! jeje. Fue muy muy interesante. Voy a subir fotos ojala por miercoles. Necesito mas fotos de mi amiga Deanna todavia. Jon regreso a los EEUU el jueves en la tarde. Mi maestra mi dio el dia sin clases! Pero necesito ir a dos horas de clases hoy. Proxima semana voy a la escuela en otro ciudad a trabajar alla por dos semanas mas. Y luego es Semana Santa! Estoy viendo muchas processiones cada viernes y domingo. Son muy interesantes. Ayer fui con Deanna a la casa de otra amiga de YWAM. Jugamos cartas y hablamos sobre nuestras vidas aqui. Nada mas de eso estoy haciendo. Les prometo que fotos vienen pronto! Y tengo buenas noticias! La escuela en Peru me ha aceptado! Puedo hacer mis practicas en Peru el proximo marzo!
Another week has come and gone! My fiance came to visit during his spring break for a few days. We spent the afternoons exploring the city and talking to my host family. Wednesday we climbed an active volcano. It was pretty cool to see the lava and all the volcanic rock! I promise to get pictures up shortly. Deanna and I need to get together to exchange a few pictures because she has a few I want to update on my site as well. THe only scary part of the trip was looking down a crack in the rock and seeing lava flowing underneath me! I would have taken a picture if I was not so concerned about getting off that part of rock as fast as possible.
Jon left Thursday. My teacher even gave me the day off classes so I could go to the airport to drop my finace off. Now I just have to make up the hours today. Next week I go back to the school I am volunteering at. I decided to finish up the month volunteering there. I love helping the kids. Then its Holy Week here. I have seen many processionals every Friday and Sunday. The church I am attending will have Easter morning service at the Cerro de La Cruz (hill that overlooks the city and has a cross). Most of the focus is on Christ´s death here, which is kind of sad. They are very colorful though and each week more and more people come into the city.
Well, I haven´t been doing much more. Its hard to believe that I almost have 4 weeks left! Time sure flies! Oh and I have good news. I have been officially accepted to student teach next March in Peru! Thanks for all your prayers!
