Everything is going great. I´m going to school every morning for two weeks to see where my spanish is at. The school is pretty cool and the teachers are nice....better than Solexico. I´m hanging out with Poo more and he´s a really nice person..really sweet. I can´t wait until our Chetumal trip and I´m also trying to convince him to go to Merida with me. I didn´t do much of anything today. I watched the soccer game, Mexico vs. Portugal and Mexico lost. All the Mexicans say mexico is a bad team but yet this is the only game they´ve lost since I´ve been here. I´m like they must not be that bad if they only lost one. I was kind of mad but I enjoyed watching the hot guys on both teams. Soccer players are hot! I went to this restaurant for breakfast and its so cool. It´s called the Cueva del Chango, which means the Cave of the Monkey. It has a river or cenote that runs through it and has glass bottles in the ceiling that light shines through. All the food was fresh and homeade...definitely a place to take your girlfriend. Here´s some pics....

      The beach was so busy today because Sunday is when the locals go to the beach on their day off. The water was so warm..like bath water. and the waves were huge! I laid down on my towel and was reading my book and when I sat up and turned my head I realized this old man was looking at my butt. I get up to go in the water and i turn around and guess who´s there...the old man. So he strikes up a conversation with me and I make small talk but I know he likes me and wants to ask me out. So I´m looking for a way out...I finally get away and to my towel and about three minutes later I see him coming towards shore. So I decide it´s time for me to go back in the water. I swim awhile and when i get done he´s still up there. UURGGGH! So I  decide it´s time for me to go back to my hotel. Maybe I should have laid down and read some more of my book let him keep looking at my  butt. He´s about to croak over soon anyway.

I´m finally getting back to reading. For  a while there, I wasn´t able to read. But now I have all the time in the world to read. I bought four thick books today. I love the book stores around here because when you´re done reading you can take the books back to the store and trade them for more. There´s even restaurants here where there are bookshelves and you just go in put your books on the shelf and pick out books to replace those. It´s cool. I read a book a day. Once I pick up a book I can´t put it down. All my friends are like, ¨Mexicans only read one book a year¨. I´m supposed to be Mexicana now and everything they said...I´m chiapaneca which is someone from Chiapas, a very rough place..not too dangerous but a little bit. Some people carry machetes. So I´m gonna buy a machete from octavio so I can really be a chiapaneca for real. I went to breakfast today and my bling bling sandal broke and I was so mad. I´m hobbling down the street in my broken sandal until this guy comes to help me and he takes me to a atm and to a shoe store. After he´s like hey can I borrow 5 bucks and I´ll pay you back. I´m like yeah right but I gave it to him for helping me out. Well I hope everyone is having a nice time whereever you are. I hope it´s hot and has a nice ocean breeze like here!

I can´t believe it. I went and got braids. I swore I would never get them again  because they´re so hard to take out. Gilberto told me he knows someone who can do it for me. I hope so. I got there at 1:30 and the lady didnt get done braiding until 7:30. I like them though. I like how I look with braids. Well I´m including a couple of pictures of me in my braids and a pic of my friend octavio acting stupid.

 Well nothing much is happening. Just partying a little too much. I went out with a new friend last night and I didn´t like it too much. He just wasn´t my type. So I dont think I´ll be going out with him again. But later on I met this cute guy......I hope I see him again. Tonight I´m supposed to be going to this birthday party of a guy who I used to hate but now es buena onda and his name is POO...yes that´s his name. At first I thought he was named after mierda but now my friend gilberto explained to me that it was after pooh bear because he´s quite big with a panzon.  I will be posting pictures of the party maybe later on and you can see for yourself!
