so updating you guys on what´s going on over here with me.....

so last weekend the red group got to visit acahay...its actually a very nice quaint city....we visited a member from the cooperative--who had his own farm....it was amazingly cool because we got to learn about the different abonos(fertilizers) that he uses in order to prepare the land to have vegetables and fruits....also he brought out some bees in a box and showed us how they were making honey....very awesome and luckily they dont sting..... otherwise i would not have gone near them....jejeje
afterwards we got to go to a park and see a small waterfall...damn the water was freezing, but it was sooo much fun to able to get wet and just relax for a bit.....and of course the group of people i was with are just soooo amazing that it was tons of fun because of them :)

so i watched the worldcup at brad´s house with his family....we were divided--some rooting for italia y otros rooting for francia....i actually wanted italia to win so i was very happy with the outcome...jeje....

so language class is now more stressful than ever because we changed groups and now i really have to study since the 2 new people in my class (jen and kyle) are actually awesome with guarani.....damnit!!! sucks!! pero le estoy hechando ganas por lo menos....

so yesterday our red group went to an expo....it was ok and very chill since we got to see animales, different stands, and there was delicious food....i had a lomito arabe (wrap made from pita bread) yummy!! also in our community there were 3 different birthdays....one was eloy´s a 12 year old boy who use to have a crush on me, but now ignores me....jaja....my nephew also turned 1 year old....they had a huge celebration for him....but damn the kids got to be sooo out of control throwing things and just a huge mayhem...jeje....finally it was celeste´s birthday too she turned 14....i actually had a bit of a headache with her because she was mad at me because i told my friend brad to not spread rumors about me and another volunteer because people will start to believe it...so she got mad at me because he got mad at her for telling me that he was spreading rumors...jaja such a mess but in the end i told brad to just flirt with her and talk to her and everything turned out ok....ayaya teenagers!!!

so yup friday nite a whole bunch of us got together and drank at mateo´s house...it was tons of fun since we tried giving a charla on how to make babies....lol...while of course most of us were buzzed or drunk.....and yeah we woke up some poor guy to sell us more beers because we wanted to drink more.....jaja so yup i am definitely drinking more here in paraguay.....

yesterday at my brother´s house i danced my butt off...jaja just because i felt like it....but it was fun since at least its some form of exercise and people complimented me on my dancing which i think is funny because as many of you know---im a horrible dancer....jaja

anyways i am actually leaving for a week to another city called itacuribi del rosario....its about 4 or 5hours away and my group will give 2 charlas so im a bit nervous about that....but hopefully they will turn out ok....

ok well i have to run off....

but individually i send you guys tons of hugs.....and hope that you guys are doing well and are at least happy wherever you find yourself :)
