continuation...

ok so here´s some more info...
- neccessary stuff...most everything i need is in a bigger town about 30 minutes away...although it is only 8 km. the police, mayor, delegate to the ministry of education, post office, internet, and supermarket is all there. unfortunately the bank is in anoter town which happens to be on the boarder of honduras. funny story about that...you have to pass the boarder guards before you reach the bank - it is in the duty free zone. the guard asked to see my id so i gave it to him but he wanted to see my passport, which i obviously didn´t have...one because pc still has it and two, why would i have my passport if i´m not crossing any boarders! so 10 minutes later i finally convinced him that i wasn´t going to honduras...i just wanted to go to the bank.
- my favorite part of my site: the people. they are wonderful and i can´t wait to get to know them better.
- what will take the most getting used to: lack of things to do. i´ve already made a list of things i have to do each day and then other possible options. now i just have to get myself to stick to them. i´ve got a lot of self discipline to learn...and lots of time to practice it! :)

other notes...
training is almost over! craziness. we are finishing up with our youth group...i´m done teaching classes. we have a few more technical sessions, our final language interview and then it´s off to managua for a few days...more sessions with all of environment and agriculture. and then off to my site! i´m definitely going to miss my training town and the people here...and my toilet. :) also, sunday was the municipal elections in nicaragua so that was interesting to watch...kinda glad campaigning is over...although some day i´m sure i´ll miss all the noise, caravans, and bombs going off. there was lots of celebrating that night and the next day...lots of fun.

that´s it for now....
lots of love!
