I met up with my good olde friend Senora Carbajal today. We talked about WHOAHAKA today among other things. Im glad I met with her. She caused me to chill out and not be so nervous. After two weeks everything will be fine. And she said, from her experience that 85% of people she knows, students, that study in Oaxaca come back with un novio o novia. Boyfriend or girlfriend. Daaaaaaammn.

Things to remember
Address in Ud. until told otherwise. Always fault on formalness.
Be aware of manners. They are much more formal than the US or Europe.
Dammit I’m forgetting already
She wants me to try the meat, because it is better. And the dishes are good. Hmmm. I don’t think so.
She says don’t make too good of friends with the other gringos in the group. Dont speak english
I dont want to speak english for 4 months.
Try to ask the family to hook me up with people my age. Not hook up, meet up with.
Ask my program director to help me find volunteer work. Etc
Ask program director if he knows where I can meet up with environmental organizations.
Dont waste time by going out drinking and then sleep all day to rest, and then go back out the next night…BE PRODUCTIVE…BE BE PRODUCTIVE…

Papi! No me quiero ir….jaja….
