Another sunny day

So its the hottest month of the year here.....if you can imagine that. Its one of these mind melting, slit your wrist kinds of heat. Where you sweat walking into the shower, sweat during your shower, and then sweat even more after your shower. There is almost no relief except to sprinkle water on your forehead and stand an inch away from the fan. Air conditioning is sorely missed here.
In other news, i will be presenting my project plan this week in Jarabacoa. All the volunteers in my group will gather to present their individual projects. What they plan to do for the next 2 years. Im psyched because Jarabacoa is supposed to be an awesome town, and some of us might get to go white water rafting!
My apartment is coming along nicely. Ive been able to take some cement blocks and a few peices of scrap wood to make some shelves for my room and kitchen. The other day we went to Price Mart. Which is like Sams club. Bulk shopping...I know, life here is tough....And i got a sweet deal on some peanut butter and bar-soap, woo hoo!
Not much else is going on here in the City of Gentleman, but im trying to upload this one photo of my apartment. Hopefully it shows up for you guys.
Love and miss you guys! Ciao

  1. no photo :( Glad you have a new place to visit. It's been like a week since you have been somewhere new. Case has Grubbs for english. She said you were one of her favorite students. Once again you are paving the way for Case! :)
