So today I officially finished my second month of teaching ESL! I am a little fatigued from grading dozens of quizzes and exams, but it feels good to be done. Overall, my students did very well. I have the rest of the day off and tomorrow I have a volunteer service day for work. We are meeting at 8am to take a bus to a town outside of Cusco to do some construction work and play soccer with the kids in the community. I think I will mostly be painting inside. We´ll see!
This past week or two has been busy and fun. I joined the gym (for 15 dollars a month). It is no Primetime, but at least I can go there to do some exercises and take a warm shower (which can be difficult to find here!).
Also, my roommates and I discovered a carnival right down our street and have been going there a lot! Some of my students from my Basic 1 English class have gone with us too.
I continue to take a Spanish class for an hour everyday.
Oh ya, and I went to a birthday party for one of my students this week. It was a lot of fun. We ate chicken and fries, danced, and ate cake. The cutest baby was there named Eduar (see picture above!). He is my student´s nephew. He is turning one this Saturday and my friend Josie and I are invited to his birthday party! He is SO cute!
Now I am off to eat some lunch!!!
