Ok!! So a couple pictures for you! These are of the house in staying at and down the street! :) and of course the cute neighbors kittens! :)
However something I have learned is that I'm a privileged American! Seriously, I'm by no means wealthy or anything, but I miss my fast wifi, laundry machines... The list goes on. We are all spoiled though! Just a keep that in mind!
On another note, the forecast constantly says rainy with at least a 30% chance.... Always!!!!! And I've realized it's because they can't ever tell if it will rain or not... It just downpours whenever it wants. So they put it up and when it happens they aren't wrong. Haha
Alright not going to lie... I had so much to update on but then I sat down to write and of course have forgotten everything. So I'll do my best to just keep writing!
So I am the third volunteer to be at the hospital, which I start on Monday! :) yay! I am the only volunteer who commutes to la ceiba everyday. The others stay in el Porvenir and teach. That's kind of hard actually but I like hanging out at night when we are all together. Music is literally always playing and I love the variety that everyone has!! Like from Spanish to Italian to American! And everything I between of all types! It's so awesome!! I don't think I have ever not liked a song that's played!
On Sunday and Monday I wasn't feeling good. Which I expected to happen. And I'm sure it won't be the only time. So i.e. as able to sit in bed and watch lots of Netflix which was really nice! When it loads..... (I'm not complaining, I love it here!)
So my Spanish classes are done at the house of the coordinator for a different volunteer program, they work at a different clinic and hospital in town and I had the awesome opportunity to go help out today at the clinic! I took blood pressure for a bit then was going to help clean wounds and infections. Maybe it was the heat... Maybe it was the blood (even though I've seen more) however I definitely passed out! Oops! That's embarrassing! Everything is all good! I knew I was going to so I sat down and told them so they would catch me. So no harm. But definitely not what I was planning on. Luckily I get to go back tomorrow! :) they want to teach me injections and suturing! I'm really excited! :)
This weekend we are going to cayos cuchinos! They are a group of island just off the coast to the east of la ceiba! We will be hanging on a beach and snorkeling! Lots of relaxing and vacationing basically! It's going to be so awesome! I'll take lots of pics and send them next week! :)
Our neighbors have chickens and a rooster... And the fricken rooster is broken. So first off, we have all the windows open all the time. And this rooster will literally always be cockadoodling.... Middle of the night... At my window. It doesn't help that there are dogs everywhere!!!! Literally! And they bark all night long! Haha it's all part of the adventure here.
Alright well I'm going to stop there for now. I'm sure there is more but as I think of it I'll do my best to keep you all posted. Sorry about how scatter brained and poorly written it is!
Love you all! Thank you so much for everything!!
Anthony
