Well, I can’t believe how fast my first week has flown by! I can’t believe I survived my first week in a foreign country! Lol I realized today that I don’t have much money to spend until I get my first paycheck. Why must everything be so expensive? Why can’t we just live off of a couple bucks a week. Why do our bodies HAVE to eat? Lol I would save so much money and time if I didn’t have to eat. Well, last night Neridia (Ned) and I went out to a couple of clubs so we could try to meet new people. (no cover charge so we went to about four different ones lol) The reason why we went to clubs is because that’s where all the westerners go on the weekends to meet other westerners. And I really want to meet some! I’m getting tired of not having anyone (besides Ned) to hang out with that I can relate with! I have to wake up early and get to work at 1230pm so I can plan for all my classes tomorrow. For the rest of the month of july and a week or so in august, the kids are out of public school. Which only changes the fact that we have kids at our school taking extra classes. The classes aren’t about structuring sentences or whatnot. They’re classes on science things…lol which I really have no idea about. So this month will be very interesting cuz of that. Oh. I met a young man last night from Toronto, Ontario. He was really nice. We just talked for about ten min cuz me and ned were ready to go! I didn’t catch his age, but he wasn’t far behind or ahead me. He had been here for 5 months and was only gonna stay 6mo. So his time is almost up before he leaves. I asked him if he was on facebook, but I couldn’t find him when I got home. Anywho, he was really nice. Ned met a Korean man and hit it off straight away. I think we’re gonna try to hang out with him soon and I think he might show us around a bit. Oh this is good…while I was chillin, watching others dance…this Mexican guy is standing beside me being silly and we started talked. I found out that he was here (from Houston) visiting a friend that was a teacher. We were talking about our last names and of course he knew I was Mexican. So just as this conversation was taking place, they started playing a Hispanic tune. So he was like, let’s go dance. So we did and I sucked it up, just like I knew I would. I told him I would, but that didn’t stop him! Lol we had fun. Omg and I feel the need to tell you that all four clubs we went to had unisex bathrooms. So guys AND girls were in there at the same time! Crazy! It was kind of awkward, but they had stalls just like any normal bathroom. Mostly squatty potty’s but I managed. Anywho. I have to get up early, so g’night! (it’s 3:26am here, Monday morning). I swear I’m gonna get some pics on here. It’s on my to-do list, just as decorating my apt is there too! Kbye
