SO today has been another good one so far, I woke up and had chocolate cereal again and fresh mango juice. It has been a pretty uneventful day, lots of tv and praying for rain. Its always the hottest here between 9 and 2, so that means lots of US open tennis (atleast for right now, im hoping I can find something else to keep me occupied once that is over). Last nights lesson went well, we had the officers read stories about crimes that we foud online, and that was probably the most tedious part, constantly correcting their pronunciation and trying to get them to understand it. But overall it was another good day at work. Oh last night I had chicherones for dinner, which are deep fried pork skin, sort of like pork rinds except everything is fair game (tails, ears, noses, hairy bits (i got a few of those)) so I dont think I will be partatking in those from now on as they were like eating stones and also hurt my stomach quite a bit with all of the grease. They are a really popular food down here, so Im hoping I dont have to eat them as to not show disrespect, but Im thinking that might end up being the case at least once or twice a week.
I think Lulu is trying to get me a Costa rican girlfriend because she always has girls at the house when I get home and we sit and talk with them for a while, and she invaribly asks me if the girl present is up to my standards and if I think she is pretty, prettier then the last one etc. Last nights was a winner (23 year old, dentist, fluent in english) It was nice to have someone to talk to and translate a little between me and the family. Lulu is quite hilarious and told me a story about a sausage that she carved to look like male genitalia one time that I dont think I can fully repeat here without putting a explicit content warning on my blog. So ill leave that to your imaginations...
Tonight we are only having class for an hour because Costa Rica is playing El Salvador in a world cup qaulifier at 7 my time, so we talked them into having class from 5-6 (instead of the not at all that they wanted). I think we are all going to a local bar to watch it, which will be fun, the police are pretty crazy according to luke so I better watch out. Well my time at the internet cafe is up. Pura Vida
