Long time, no blog

So recently some of my 'blog-tastic' friends have commented on my pathetic blogging skills. I have no argument. It's not like I haven't done anything in the last 5 or so months that I haven't blogged, I have, I've just been lazy. So here it is the last few months in review. (Pictures to come!)

February:

• The Saints beat the Colts! I watched from a restaurant in Belmopan and splurged on a $10 plate of fried shrimp to honor the occasion.
• I attempted to Kayak for Haiti, a fundraising effort kayaking from Punta Gorda to Guatemala. I had never kayaked before and made it almost halfway thanks to my co-kayaker.
• My Ipod and my external hard drive all died in the same week. I cried a little.
• Lots of trainings for Peace Corps.
• I attended my first Mayan wedding and bartended it, too.
• Some PC friends I never get to see came to visit me!
• Youth groups, youth groups, youth groups.

March

• La Ruta Maya- a canoe race starting from the west coast of the country and finishing on the east coast over three days. We did HIV outreach at the event. I met a lot of great people and we did good work.
• Dara and Lance came to visit me! I love visitors. We spent a day at Caye Caulker. Dara ran over me with a golf cart. Then we went to Caracol to see the ruins and the falls. A guard gave Dara an M-16 to pose with, seerus.
• I started my SCUBA training. I am petrified of drowning and I am claustrophobic, but Emerson said if you're not facing your fears everyday, you aren't living.
• My friend Kristen moved in with me.

April

• My friend, Lilly, invited me to meet her mom on San Pedro. This is the island Madonna sang about and it is La isla bonita!
• Next stop Mexico! I went to Chiapas with some friends. We went to San Cristobal de la Casas and Palanque. We saw a bullfight, parades and political effigies set on fire with fire works. Viva La Mexico! At the end of the trip I crossed three countries in one day by myself. Take that Emerson.
• Youth groups, youth groups, youth groups.
• Erica's cat died. I tried CPR on it. R.I.P. Piglet.
• Trainees came to visit and stay with us for the weekend. I got Cassidy. That's one B.A. chick!
• Earth Day. We did presentations at all the schools!
• Community clean-up. Four satellite sites, 23 kids showed up. Boo!
• Finished SCUBA- ish. Stress and a developing ulcer sidelined me on the last dive, but I had enough time in to qualify for scuba cert instead of open water. Only difference is I have to dive with a dive pro, as if I wouldn't anyways.

As for May, this month has been exceptionally trying, but I will get through it and maybe, just maybe I'll share it with the blogosphere.
Until then, try to be patient. They say it's a virtue.
