just want to update everyone that right arm and i are going to buenos aires this sunday. my US friend becky will meet me there and we are going to learn how to tango.
i am really excited about the trip since we have been planning it for months and it's the first time that i will see anyone i know from the US. weirdly enough i wish i was here in site for a little bit longer though. there is another opportunity to translate for a US medical team in a nearby town early next month and my soup kitchen project is coming along as well as can be expected.
while i was out of town translating this last week, the professors really pulled together to conduct a survey to determine exactly how many students would eat at the comedor. about 66% or 250 students said that they would. this means that between the hours of 1-3 p.m., we would have to serve this many meals.
today we had a parents meeting. about 300 people were there and i announced my idea to the entire assembly...in my gym clothes (i did not know that there would be so many people), in my broken spanish, over a microphone. it was so nerve wrecking, but at least it's a step in the right direction. :)
