I've been in Mexico for a month as of this week, and I don't have any complaints. There's always the usual fussing that goes on, but I'm trying to avoid all of that.

This past week was eventful: I lost my phone on Thursday night because there were 8 of us jammed into a taxi, and it fell out of my pocket. I only realized that it was gone once we got to Unit. But, LeRon gave me his extra phone! Saturday night I got extra sick and therefore wasn't feeling all that well on Sunday. So on Monday, I refrained from celebrating my 21st like we do back home. We had a tasty lunch at Norma's house, complete with cake annnnnd singing! On Monday night, another Japanese exchange student came over for the night, and he sang happy birthday for me. We ate inflamed rice, as he called it and tried pawning off all the green ones on my cousins. They fell for it the first time, but 7 and 10 year olds are smart enough to say no the second. 

The week was full of exams, presentations, and papers. I had 2 presentations, an exam, and a paper to turn in, all by Thursday. And finally, it's Spring Break. We got our grades in one of our classes (the one that we use wikipedia for), and I got a hundred....in a college class. It's strange, and though I'm hoping it will happen again, I'm almost sure it won't.

I've been planning for the trip to Guatemala all day, cleaning my room, washing clothes, and enjoying the first day of Spring Break.

It's glorious.

And I'm stoked about Guatemala; I just have to get over the border!
