Despues de otro dia de servicio ayer, fui con Sebastian y Manuela a las pisinas en Hotel Balandu. Todo era muy formal y lujoso, como si estubiera llevando vida de rico, por solo $4. Me acoste para cojer sol mientras tenian musica clasica puesta, y tenian servidores a tu orden, con jacuzzi, sauna,...

At last! The day had come for my first campaign, an event I had been anticipating before I even came to Colombia. The service meeting was at 8am. I was told to bring lunch and a hat and a umbrella. I didnt really see the point of the umbrella until we got out on the field. It serves as protection...

Ayer en la tarde Guillermo me invito a acompañarle a unos estudios. Hacia bastante frio, y parece que me empeoro la gripa un poco. Despues de terminar los estudios, el me asigno los puntos sobresalientes para hoy y me mostro unos puntos que podria usar. Me da mas nervios estar en la...

Last night I went to my first meeting in Jardin, and there was a great attendance of around 50. Apparenly my grandpa told one of the elders I wanted to play soccer (not sure why), so he organized a group to go play. Except there are only about 2 or 3 young people in Jardin willing to play soccer,...

Nos toco levantarnos mas temprano de lo normal. La reunion en Andes comensaba a las 8:30. No me sentia muy bien debido a la gripa, pero sabia que Jah se iba a encargarse de que todo saldria bien, y asi sucedio. Al llegar al pueblo de Andes nos tardamos un buen rato en encontrar el salon. Le...

Taking into consideration the circumstances, I had a decent night of sleep. For whatever reason, the right lense on my glasses had a long scratches on it, from one end to the other, that I didnt remember seeing the night before. I wanted to just go ahead and get my eyes checked and buy a new pair...

No se porque, pero el primero pensamiento que me vino a la mente cuando me desperte era sobre mi bosquejo ( la oja donde tengo toda la informacion para dar mi discurso). Se me occurio que no lo habia visto desde que llegue de Itagui. Entonces me levante de immediato y me puse a destrosar el...

I woke up to a heavy downpour. Although it always sounds like theres a downpour from my room because of the river that runs behind the house. I was worried it was going to ruin my service day, which would have done serious damage to my service hours, but the day cleared up. There were about 10...

Despues de 3 horas de camino porfin llegamos a Jardin. El camino fue suave y pasamos por lindos paseos, incluyendo una cuidad de indigenas, o sea los colombianos nativos, parecido a los native americans de Estados Unidos. Parecen ser una sociedad independiente de los demas. Cultivan sus propios...

One of my great great aunts died yesterday, on my grandmas side, and we went to see her in the funeral home. I dont remember the proper term in spanish for velorio, but basicly they leave the body sitting in a open casket for a full 24 hours, while people come and go to see thier dead loved one....
