Happy St. Patty's Day from Honduras!

Sorry I haven't updated this thing in a while, life has gotten a lot busier! Ok...so...

Classes are going well...I still have so much to learn about teaching, but I am getting better and my students are learning more English! I still wish I could have more time with each class every week, but I am learning how to organize my time in the classroom better to make the most out of the time that we have for class. Today I told my classes about St. Patrick's Day, which was fun.

It has been really hot here lately and while it has been humid there hasn't been any rain (it's dry season). Unfortunatly, no rain not only means that the air doesn't cool off as much, it also isn't all that great for our electricity becuase it is hydroelectric, so we have times (generally at night for a few hours starting at 11) when we are without electricity. (Yes, Camille, I am using the flashlight you gave me!!!)

We have had several small work teams coming and going. Right now there is one from Asbury College. One of the team members is a girl who was a VIA in Honduras this June and I met her this May at VIA orientation. When teams come we have one day when we share with them about ourselves and our ministries here. Tonight is my roommate and my turn.

At the moment I can't think of much else to say (could be the heat is making me lazy!)
