This past week we only had school Monday and Tuesday, and then we got the rest of the week off for Thanksgiving. It's been a really nice break. For the past 5 years, over Thanksgiving I went on a mission trip to Mexico with my youth group, but since I'm in Haiti this year I couldn't go, so I've been praying for my youth group all week and really wish I could've been there with them this week. Today I looked at pictures from the trip and the kids at the orphanage are growing up so fast, I almost teared up! I've been really missing Mexico and all the amazing people we get to visit there so much this week. <3
A few days ago I went to the restaurant by the school to get coke and milk mixed together. When her kids first told me about that drink, I thought it did not sound good, but as I thought about it more it seemed like it might actually be good like a creamy coke drink. And then I finally tried it and it was soooo good, I think it's much better than a normal coke. It tasted like a rootbeer float but with coke instead of rootbeer. You should try it. It may sound different, but its really really good and it made me so full. Like they give you this big cup and put ice in it and then pour in a can of milk in it and then pour a big bottle of coke in it and you stir it all up. It was yummy. :) And then at the restaurant I also saw Widloveson there one day. He is the cutest little cutie ever. I love him so much. He is in fifth grade this year, but I helped in his class when I visited Sonlight before, I think he was in 2nd grade. He is just as cute now as he was then. We talked in the restaurant for at least an hour maybe more, I love talking to him, the conversations we have are so funny. I asked him what he'll do over Christmas break, and he said how he's gonna eat a cat sandwich! Because that is like a special meal he has over that time I think haha, and he said cat is his favorite meat, and that is tastes spicy. He asked me if I would try it sometime but I said no because I don't eat meat, and he asked me why I don't eat it and I told him how I stopped eating it in 7th grade because I felt bad for the animals, and he was like, you don't need to feel bad for them, they're gonna die anyway, haha. That is true. And he also told me that he likes to eat onions and he can eat them raw by themselves. And he said he is gonna make little firework things when he got home haha. I love talking to him, he is really funny and adorable. And then I told him I'd come back tomorrow morning for spaghetti. And he said what if there is a giant storm and it's raining everywhere, would you still come? And I told him there is nothing that will stop me from coming because his mom's spaghetti is too amazing. And he laughed. And then I came and got her spaghetti the next morning, it was not raining though which was nice. It has been raining so much here lately though, almost everyday since the hurricane, so most everyone here is really tired of the rain because it turns the roads to mud, so its hard to travel in it, and it makes it hard to dry clothes. So were hoping for more of the sun. Yesterday it was beautiful out, but today it is back to rain again.
I also put up a Christmas tree in my class this week, it's cute. :)
I also caught a lizard in my rom this week, it was a cute little baby lizard.
And I also had lost my ipod for a few days and had been looking all over my room for it. The other day I finally found it, and guess where it was.......in my tennis shoes!! Hahaha, how does and ipod get inside your shoe?? I don't know but I was so happy to find it, its got all my good worship music and stuff on it.
Yesterday Samantha and I went on a walk. We walked up to the pretty cross and then past it where this path leads you up and down the hillside and the view from up there is beautiful. It was way greener out there than last time, because of all the rain. And then we saw a beautiful rainbow when we got home. On our walk, at one point we didn't take a turn when we were supposed to so we started walking through downtown. And we knew where we were we just didn't know the best way back. So Samantha said something to me like, I hope God will just give us another person we know to lead us home! And sure enough a few minutes later we hear "Miss Sarah!" And it's my student James, so we asked him if he could get his older sister to tell us the way back. And she ended up walking us back, which she didn't have to do but she wanted too which was really nice and sweet.
Our internet was also good enough that we could watch Gilmore Girls!!! I did not think I would be able to watch it here, so I was sooooo thrilled that we got too.
