Life now and such..

So one problem with cooking here is the HEAT. When your room's average temperature is 90 degrees already, turning on a burner or oven is almost absurd. But all and all my cookies turned out great. :) And no I don't just make junk food.

Actually starting to figure out what I'm suppose to be doing at school. I teach bible in the morning and then 3 days a week I oversee things, the other 2 days I help in the mornings and then stay in the afternoon to finish things up. Trying to get 6 kids, all at different levels of learning, all organized and working is rather a feat. But what really make my job a whole lot easier is that fact that the kids want to learn and are hard working.

We have marble game breaks and topos (sp?) (a Honduran Popsicle) to help us "focus." :)

The only medical stuff I have been able to do is stitching my knee up after a soccer game. And let me tell you stitching with a medical needle is so much better than a sewing needle.

Hopefully this weekend I will be able to learn how to run IVs. But we shall see...

We play soccer everyday after school. It's a great ministry and a lot of fun. They made a nick name for me, "Chino."

Mosquitoes are pretty bad down here. For some reason my room seems to be the worst in the building I'm in. I go around my room every night before I go to bed and kill as many as I can find. This is usually around 6-15... I made a trap for them and it seems to have helped some.

The power goes out often and the internet is somewhat sketchy. Thankfully the Hospital has a generator that the Staff Housing is connected to, but at least half of the other buildings (missionary houses) go without power for long periods of time.

All in all I'm having a lot of fun and feeling very blessed.

oh... I got see a few Basilisks lizards (they run on water) very cool.
