AS OF LATELY, i have been working the usual 8am-2pm days during the week. nothing major has happened as far as work goes. the kids have been really funny lately with some of their writings and some of the things they say. i don't think teaching will EVER get old with kids this young. they really say the funniest things. on the weekends we have been eating TOO MUCH food and spending too much money. colleen & i discovered mexico's street hamburgers last weekend. they're amazing. i wish i had taken a picture but this is what they consist of: hamburger patty (very flat and thin, just the way i like it), bun, ketchup, mustard, sauteed onion, ham, bacon, cheese (LOTS of cheese), guacamole, mayo (if you're one of those people that eat mayo) andd, i think that's all. but they are the best thing, ever. for 25 pesos. whhhat?

it's getting cooler weather here, we're having to wear jackets in the mornings on the way to school but in the afternoon the sun is shining bright and it's HOT. it's my favorite weather, ever. i love it.

we're trying to plan a trip for our break for dia de los muertos. we have the 1 and 2 of noviembre off of work. we were thinking of going to isla mujeres but it's quite pricey. and with a ticket home for christmas being 713$, i can't spend much money on vacations. HOWEVER, something will be planned and a fun trip will take place for that puente (break).

well, my new favorite website is:

www.tvshack.cc

i'm able to watch american tv shows. it's amazing.

lately - it's been real housewives. lame, but totally entertaining.

i feel like this blog is uneventful.

but here's a pretty mexican sky for you to enjoy :)
