This post is actually being written today minutes before the post time, which cannot be said for any of the other blogs posted today. Sorry about that, but I'm happy to get them up I guess. They aren't the best by any means, but they are what I wrote at the time, so I guess they're accurate portrayals of my state of mind at the time. With that in mind, I didn't edit them. If you don't feel like reading all of them, that's fine. All that you really need to know is that I'm here in Peru, happy and still looking forward to my service.
The reason I'm able to get these blogs posted today is because I've finally gotten Wi-Fi for my iPad. I asked yesterday night about what Internet wi-fi service my iPad picked up. I wondered if I could rent an hour of it or something. Turns out you rent it by the month, for S./ 50. 50 Soles is only about $18.50. So while it may have been all of my money, it really isn't that expensive. And it means I can Skype, and post my blogs finally. So yay! Good day. Went to Chosica today with Shannon, the one who lives down the street with the two-year old (who had the birthday party). We bought a lot of stuff which we'd needed; it felt very very productive. Great feeling to check all your goals off for the day. I finally bought a coin purse, and we're splitting a bag of caramels to take with us to the high-altitude (that was a recommendation of our trainer and my family).
Overall, good feeling. Looking forward to my 2nd half of training, and the 2 years of service.
If you want to skype, my handle is facejackson.
