Just Thoughts

This is not a play by play of my blog like some days.

This is simply 20 thoughts.

1.  I am surprised I have not been smashed by a car yet.  I think I almost get hit at least seven times a day.

2.  When you take a bus, there are no such things as seat belts.

3. The first time someone kissed me on the cheek I wasnt sure what was happening.

4. I think most boys here have motives that are not so good.  But they are so nice!  Then again I think the motives of the American boys here are also not so good.

5. I take 3 minute showers because I freeze if I stand there any longer.

6. At night I sleep with five blankets, socks (which is so weird for me), two sweatshirts, a tee shirt, and full on pants...

7. The little dog that the family owns finally doesn't bite me in the ankle.

8. The little cat likes to sleep on my face.

9. I entered a 10k race here.  I think.  I run on New Years Eve.  I think.

10. If I don't understand what someone said I usually just go with a solid SI!... I think I've said yes to things I shouldn't have.

11. The guys standing around with guns on the street scare the crap out of me.  They remind me of the guards in London.

12. As my Spanish gets better I'm pretty sure my English is getting worse.

13. Before I go to bed I now THINK in Spanish.

14. I walk everywhere because I don't know how to take the crazy autobuses that are here.

15. I will not eat beans and rice for at least six months when I return to the states.

16. I'm going to travel over the new year...very excited!

17. I'm gonna eat all the street food I can... and build up my immune system.

18. It doesn't feel like Christmas to me.

19. 20 days left in Xela.

20. I have the travel bug bad.
