day 42

im nearing the end. i cant believe it. but its finally starting to feel like it. everyones saying bye, and its a lot sadder than i thought it would be!

but anyways, yesterday i got a manicure. a french manicure. and it cost me 2 dollars, plus fifty cents for a tip. and it was exactly the same as any manicure at home. crazy USA. then i went to school and did my usual teaching. fue un dia normal.

today i woke up and spent the day with my host cousins. they came from chitre to las tablas to see me, and theyre a lot of fun. one speaks pretty good english, and the other knows only a couple of words. but we found a lot to talk about. and im gonna miss them a lot!

the english teacher was sick, and so tehre were no english classes today. but i did one class on my own because it was their last day with me. so i threw a party. i made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for them!! such a simple thing, yet panama has not yet discovered it. they were a big hit. other kids brought more food. and we had music. and we made turkeys out of our hands and feet (i explained thanksgiving to them), and then we played games with balloons. good day. of course they were crazy wild though and i doubt ill have a voice after the 4 parties tomorrow. hugging those students good bye was so saddd!!

tomorrow should be another normal day. teaching and parties and hanging with the fam. i have to make 90 pb and j´s for the parties tomorrow, and imnot looking foward to that. (they only get half a sandwich, i dont have endless money. it might end up being a quarter sandwich even!)

anyways... hasta luego!
