That was the saying of my day today! Today was a really tough day. I woke up early because I had nightmares, which I rarely have! Anyway, then it was time for church with my family. As soon as we pulled up to the building, I took a deep breath because I knew that I was going in WAY over my head. I was greeted by so many kisses and strange Spanish sentences. I just followed that with a blank stare because everyone talks so fast! The church service was like three hours long and honestly, I couldn't tell you one thing that happened. After church, we went to a HUGE gathering of people from the church. It was at a finca which is a farm and it was way out in the mountains. The view was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. We were there for like four hours and the entire time I hardly said anything.
We got home and I took some time for myself and I thought and talked in English to my mom! Then, Brenda had some of her friends come over to watch a movie. Brenda rented The Mist (I have never heard of it). I had to explain to everyone what mist was. It was pretty funny. The movie was suspenseful and had a horrible ending! Throughout the whole thing, one of Brenda's friends and I were speaking a little bit of English. It was hilarious hearing her say some things. I tried to teach her to say, See ya later alligator and After while Crocodile but I think we might have to save that lesson for another day!
The highlight of my day came next when I got to talk to Beau from Skype to his cell phone! It was the first time I have heard his voice in a long time and I am happy to report that he is doing well too! He is just beginning his day full of classes while I am ending mine by writing on this blog! Hope you are doing well. Wish me luck on my first day of Spanish Classes tomorrow :)
