Procrastinating

yo,
so, two weeks left in the program. really should get started on that monografia and presentation thus i am writing on my blog. left my flash at home so killing time till i go interview a guy at the municipality at 3pm. gonna go pretend i know what i am writing about, which i dont cause i had no real internship. hahaha
in other news....
rafting last saturday was awesome. 38 km through the rainforest. gorgeous!!! probably one of the most beautiful places i have ever been. wish i had pics. gonna try and get some from the company.
went back to quito for our big thankgiving party. it was weird being back in quito. cold for one, and there was so many...people, stores…everything. felt like i was in the US again for a day. best thing about the visit was that i got to get really clean and shave my legs in a nice indoor shower.
spent about 24 hours in quito before heading to the coast with 5 other girls from cimas. went to tonsupa by atacames in esmeraldas province. chilled out on the beach for a whole day. swam in the ocean with some crazy fun waves. stayed in a very...interesting hostel. still had a balcony with and ocean view so cant complain. and we got running water during the day at least hahaha. saturday night my friend nichole and i started the long journey back to el oriente. took 7 hour bus ride from esmeraldas to quito at 10pm. we were aided in finding the bus station by moron missionaries from utah.
once in quito at 445 am we ate a lovely breakfast of grilled cheese and nescafe at a lovely bus station diner and caught a bus to tena at 530 and we back in tena by 1130. spent the rest of the day hanging out with my host family and jumping off a cliff into the tena river. crashed at 8pm and did not move until 6am when i went for a run. yup..there you have it. brief summary of the last week of my life. one of these days i will remember my flash drive and put up pics.
