Back in Las Lagunas, Time to get to work!
5-23-10 9:30pm
I'm baaaack. I think my project partners pissed too cause I didn't call and I just showed up and saw him at church this morning. Oops, was I supposed to call and tell you I was coming? Haha. I think I am going to keep pulling the "Sorry I'm not from here, I'm a crazy American" card whenever I feel it necessary. Or at least when I don't feel comfortable.
Anywho, it's good to be back. Except for the fact that I have to start this such thing called a "diet" because I pretty much gained 15 pounds living in the capital. That's what happens when you have McDonalds and donuts all the time. Bummer but it's going to feel good to get back in shape and my doña here is pretty awesome. She makes me massive salads and my favorite sliced cucumbers with just the right amount of chile and lemon. Yums! Plus she doesn't ever fry my food and she always is trying to eat healthy. So things should be looking up. Also, I am planning on doing a 1/2 marathon towards the end of June which I am kind of excited and scared for. I never entered any kind of running race before (not that I am going to run fast!) I just really want to cross the finish line on my feet and not be dragged by my "Peace Corre" partners Masa, Aidan and Jenn. Haha. So I am starting to train this week as well, I need to get a gym membership mañana and I have 5 weeks to train. Yikes. Wish me luck with that one.
Other than my sudden health and wellness kick, everything seems like it's going to be pretty good. I hope to start fixing the computers in my lab this week (with a hopeful visit from Masa on Saturday to help clone all my comps :) and I have a meeting on Wednesday with the APCD and PCVL (theres so many acronyms in PC) to get me started with my project partners. So slowly but surely I am getting started! These first 3 months are really supposed to be more dedicated to the diagnostic anyway so I doubt I will be crazy busy but it's still early to tell. For now I will just cogelo suave and hope to get invitations from other PCV's to visit them.
P.S. I cut my hair a while back, definitely was a good purchase and much simpler to deal with in the times of heat. Only negative thing, now my hair is short and my attempts at growing out my hair are ruined. Oh well.
