I'm Soooo white

 

drumroll please... finally the walk through!
Last night Lauren made the best dinner.  Its hard not eating having your mom serve you home cooked meals every night!  Finally something other than pizza!


Today was a normal day.  Woke up at 6:30 ish and moped around the apartment until I was about to be late and then scurried around like a chicken with its head cut off to get all of my stuff together for school.



I ate some Chinese donuts for breakfast this morning on the walk to school.  Then proceeded to eat a taco (corn tortilla, chicken, salsa, cheese and cilantro... delicious. And yes they eat tacos and corn torillas like we eat toast) and a chocolate/banana bar that my teacher brought me.  Hummingbird caters their lunch for the teachers and there are always 3 or 4 choices that you can choose from.  They are soo good and only cost $6bz or $3US.  


I am soo grateful for all of the teachers, parents, and other staff at Hummingbird Elementary.  They always want to feed us.  They offer to drive us anywhere at anytime (and we have had multiple families tell us that they will take us where ever we need and they give us their numbers).  They are so awesome and couldn't be more welcoming!


I am super mad at myself for forgetting my camera charger! :(  Blogs are boring without pictures. 


Evan is coming to visit me on March 17-21!  He loves me :) I can't wait.  


I think my mom is coming right after that on the 23rd, but I don't really know.  So excited to have visitors!


Ok so for the funny story of the day.  


Jahmur (pronounced Ja-More)  a little black boy comes up to me today and stays, "Teacher Elle, I think you have a bug bite"  and points to my arm.  I said,  "Yea, I think it was a mosquito."  He had this worried look on his face and said, " Oh well mosquitos suck out all of your blood.  Did the mosquito suck out all of your blood?  Is that why you are sooooo white?"  


I almost fell over laughing!  


Well tonight the plans are as usual.  All sit in our beds and play on the internet!  We were so deprived of internet, now thats all we do! :)  


Until next time.... (probably tomorrow) Bye!!
