this will be short.

yesterday i forgot to tell you a story. I decided to wear shorts to class and tennis shoes because it was pouring rain out. The boys at the school think it is funny to push eachother into me. I can usually see it coming and i hold my balance. Today i wasn't paying full attention because i was signing to Mario and one kid shoved another into me and i fell into a big ditch full of nasty and water. it was great. My legs and hands were covered in sludge. i managed to catch my self enough that my clothes stayed pretty dry. It was sure an event. Mario got really upset and tried to yell at the kids. It was the first time i had heard him try to speak. But i guess it wasn't that big of a deal. I am still alive and i didn't get hurt. they were just high school boys messing around.
I have been able to eat everything that is put in front of me. Even those tiny fish that are just fried and you can still see it as a whole fish. But this morning for breakfast i almost threw up several times in trying to eat what was put in front of me. You would never guess what it was... At 6:00am my mom made us Spaghetti! Also their version of hotdogs was cut up into it. I kid you not it was by the worst thing i have eaten here so far! Spaghetti for breakfast is not funny. gross.
today is sunny and 95degrees. I am meeting Marie-Eve and Audrey soon to go to the beach. I am SO excited! Also i leave for Bohol tomorrow morning at 4am! Pray for a safe trip for the four of us White North Americans! ;)

lots of love

Did you get to go to the beach? 95 sounds pretty good compared to our below zero weather. Hopefully you remember to wear sunscrean. Did you see the little monkeys yet? Hope you took some pictures of them. Did you dye your hair? How is the teaching going? Krystal went to cold spring tonight. She is going to be in a human video with them for the variety show in Upsala. She should be home soon. Well, I Guess I will sign off. We sure do miss you, but know you are where you should be. We love you Toni. Your Family

I'm so glad you get to go to the beach. I can't imagine how clean that water will feel! I love you and have so many stories to tell you. I'm trying to take notes so I don't forget. I'll tell you one story...The bus drove past me (like that one time)and I ran ahead to catch a different one and got on the wrong bus. Hope you laughed. Loves*
