Up for my morning e-mails! I am not sure if I will be able to do that once I start teaching in the "campos" as well because I'll be driving around more...but I hope I can! Thank god for a 3G Kindle! I was told before coming that I should bring books because at night, during down time, there is not much to do. My parents bought me a Kindle and I am so thankful for it (and SO thankful for my wonderful Auntie Vicky who just sent me a gift card to buy more books). SO awesome! Nights are when homesickness hits the hardest so it's a good distraction to have.
Today I am working in the Youth House with the Peace Corps volunteer and her literacy team for a project in the parish school. We are hoping to eradicate the problem of illiteracy here with tutoring. Tutoring is a very foreign concept here so let's hope it works. After that I'll be working on stuff for the college aged group of guys and girls that help teach and lead youth groups here.
I hope all of you East Coast people are stocking up and staying safe and dry as hurricane Irene hits. Be careful! I am praying for you!
