So I know I have been slacking a little with the blog entries and I am sorry. I didnt really think anyone read this thing, but my dad recently informed me that there are people who try to keep up with my life here. So lemme give you some recent news. This past friday we didnt have school so thursday afternoon Alicia and I left for San Jose. We stayed at their house there and it was a blast! Alicia, Laura (my older sister), and her boyfriend all went to Volcan Irazú. It was so much fun. Afterwards we went to the biggest mall in Costa Rica called Terramall. I bought some stuff and then we went to Alicias sisters house for coffee. When we got there we did the usual pleasantries of first meetings, and then we all sat down and had coffee and bread with natilla. I didnt understand a some of it because her sister talks at a latin 18 year old woman´s speed with a mountanous accent, but it was all about their teenage years and stories about how their life was back then. They could not stop laughing the entire time. The stories were really funny and it was cool seeing them remember the same stories at the same time. Then we went to ANOTHER mall because Laura needed to find shoes for a wedding. Saturday we hung out for a while at the house then we went home.

My (Our) birthday is in 22 days and I realized that however weird it is that I wont have my birthday at home, it wont actually be my first birthday in Costa Rica. When my family and I came here to visit my dads old host family and such I turned 5 and all i remember of it was dalmations decorations.
