...Wednesday?

i only update this thing when i have something worthwhile to post. but then i realized that i rarely have anything groundbreaking to report. so i decided to give the whole daily monotony thing a shot. (i don't think i spelled that word right, but apparently...)

wednesdays are pretty good for me.
gym and then time to not rush, then to gustavo's house with steve, or sometimes alone, to have painting class. i never want to go but i'm always glad i went. today it rained all day. i guess i shouldn't be surprised. this IS costa rica. there IS a tropical climate. this IS rainy season. but anyways. today was, for some reason, especially enjoyable. gustavo is finally not making me copy someone elses paintings. this new one is of my imagination, but i guess i got hung up somehow on the whole huge fruit thing. this one is a huge orange, inside of a house. and i got to try airbrushing for the first time. it was really hard to control.
i cook lunch on wednesdays. i don't mind cooking. today i baked a cake, as lunch was being grilled and i want nothing to do with that. but i recieved no complaints- and i helped with dishes and cleanup anyways.
then spanish class. i like spanish class- a lot, really. my spanish keeps getting better, and i am slowly (very slowly) learning to be less embarrassed to speak a little bit of it to people other than my spanish teacher.
then we come back home, do a house group that mostly involves in finalizing weekend plans. This weekend we're going to the movies friday, paintballing and go karts saturday, and the farmers market sunday for the amazing papusas and, in my opinion, the best juice i'd had yet in costa rica.
after group dinner is cooked, we chill, and then have a group with the doctor.

day to day isn't too terribly exciting.
oh- and today we had to throw away all of our rice because, for some reason, there are worms in it. how disgusting is that? (its also a little bit funny)

last weekend i went to vermont to see the kgs graduation. it was a fun trip. it was also very relaxing to be part of an english speaking majority. i especially liked being able to order food in english :)
