maintaining

Weekends have become non existing or meaning less for me. The academy works harder on saturday than we do any other day of the week. weekends are cut a day short and one day of rest is taken by jumping on buses to see guatemala or spend the day curled up in bed.



Week nights are as good as night as any to go out since everday starts with class at 7am and ends at 8pm.



Tuesday nights at La playa. Enter at 815 to find your friend who got off early from work, doble tequila shot in hand ,´¨because he owed you one.¨Next, Four for One drink specials left us with a table of over 20 drinks for 5 people, mojitos, sexo en la playas, orgasmos were plentiful. Time for a stroll to the bathroom. Why not run into one of your students whome you find a little creepy in a macho latino ¨you´re the reason i speak english¨ sort of way, and get invited to double tequila shots, because they are two for one of course.

12am. Time to leave, you realize you didn´t eat dinner and you are starving. You force your sober guatemalteco amigo to drive past taco bell twice becuae you ´swear its open till at least 2am, maybe even four....then to wendy´s because you insist that they are ´open late.´No cigar. You are then explained to that everything closes at 11 ..and nothing is ´open late´cause people get shot here. oooh you say.

You then resort to heading to a gas station where you are presuaded to buy a large deep dish pizza and two liter of coke for Q60 and consume it in its interity with help of course.



530am come to early, and there is no goma yet...you give your 7 to 830 class with a shake in your stepp and little extra spice, and you even tell a student that speaks very little english that ergonomics wasn´t a word and didn´t exist...

t minus on month with these guys in this place. not enough to let them go by easybreasy beautiful covergirl.
