more changes

so i started the week with some more engergy.
after a weekend at the jungle river lodge for some food drink, rest, hiking and swimming... i also sort of got offered a job there if i decide to stay in honduras for longer... very tempting. very very tempting.
we'll see.

we have 4 new volunteers this week. since i'm the old volunteer, i've been semi 'training' the newcomers at the 2 locations i'm working at. it's not been as draining as i thought it would be though as they are all quite pleasant to work with. i've learned that the people you work with make all the difference when dealing with the kids. when everyone is working together, even if the kids are horribly bad, at least you feel like a team. so, that being said, i'm rather happy with my new coworkers so far. unfortunately my one roommate and co-volunteer is leaving, but that's how it goes here. people come and go.

i've resumed the after school classes this week, and the monster puppets are starting to look very cute. i'm thinking of putting together a october halloween type performance with the kids if they are interested in participating.

today was pretty exhausting, as the kids at the campesino project decided to revolt - but overall things are getting a little easier as far as knowing what to do and knowing what to say... i think my spanish is getting better - although i don't want to speak too soon because tomorrow is a new day...
and as usual, i have no idea what it will bring.
