So today was the first day of school for us. Ei yi yi!! My head hurts from so much thinking! The day began with an interview with one of the professors to determine which class we should be in...(let the laughter begin). You know the cartoon that shows what cats hear when people are talking to them? That was me. "Blah blah blah, hola, blah blah blah, gracias." They actually have a slang term for it in Mexico...something like "cara what?" meaning you get this blank look on your face that says "what they hey did you just say?" Anyway, I am in a class with three other people. One is Lisi's new roommate, as she moved onto her homestay today. Ella nombre es Ali. (I had to ask Denise how to say that...which clues you into which class I am in). Then there is a woman from Manhattan, and a woman from London. The gal from London is a professor of Moda (fashion...see how much you are learning from me?) at a university in London. She is of Nigerian ancestry, and is 6'2" and funny as all getout. She was the comic relief many times when I needed it. I have homework tonight, no kidding.
And for those new to the blog world, if you want to leave a comment you just click on anonymous and it should let you post. Sign your name in the post if you want me to know who you are. I could probably guess for the most part!
Also, I am attempting to add in a small video of our front entry during a rain storm. Not so interesting to watch, but it gives you a good idea of the sound here when it rains (minus the thunder!)
Hasta luego!

un vídeo! que está genial!
Wow, a video on your blog! I haven't tried that yet. Of course, I don't have anything with which to take video (at least I don't think I do!) so that would be a hold up. I'm loving the chance to learn vicariously through you.
Joan, I keep thinking about how much you would love it here. I need to learn how to link up different blog sites here. I go into your site daily! Inspires me to be more inventive with my cooking.
