Hi! everyone, so it's been awhile and I have been having a blast. The baby Jesus day was fun, we went to church then got coffee for an hour while mass went on then stood outside and waited for us and our baby jesus to get baptized. There were sooo many baby jesi, it was awesome/creepy. They also put them on like serving platters or in chairs with candles and rosemary then hold them up to receive the baptism. Afterwards there was a pinata, with gross candy in it, tamales (i love tamales!) and hot chocolate. I almost got taken out by the broom handle that we were using. Since then there hasn't been too much going on. I am very very behind on work, no joke.

This weekend we are going back to Mexico city to see a lot of things we didn't the first time, which was a lot. To go to gay clubs fun stuff. Soooo I am currently falling asleep so I will post again not go tired.

Peace my home slices

Hola a todos,

So this past week I was in Oaxaca and it was pretty dope. We only got 3 hours of free time the last day so that kind of sucked and it was hella busy but awesome. We went to monte alban, Mitla, and other pyramids, there were too many in a short amount of time to keep them all straight.

I think I am going to be annoyed with resturants when I get back because here you eat then sit there for at least an hour afterwards talking with people and even then you still have to ask for the check, they don't just bring it to you and as you all know it's the complete opposite in the states.

Tomorrow is the baby jesus party. At 5:30 we are going to take our baby jesus to chruch then go back to the hotel for tomales and chocolate then of course go out tomorrow night. I'm pretty psyched for it.

I bought some mole negro in Oaxaca which I plan to make dinner for moundlings and 115 when I get back. If you do not know what mole is, it's chocolate with spices, it sounds gross but it is delicious, and Oaxaca is famous for it. Also the string cheese which was orgasmic but I cannot bring that home with me.

I think that is it for now, I will update later and more frequently.

*Note: You all probably remember that I am a horrible speller, but keep that in mind while reading these.

Ciao mis amigos!

Me encanta Mexico

Sooo Mexico is amazing, really amazing. When we got on the bus to go to the hotel there was a sign that said Mexico <--- Puebla --->. We thought we were already in Mexico, apparently people don't call it Mexico city, they just call it Mexico. There have been many whistles, honks, kissy noises, and stuff like that. It's not too bad though, especially when you're walking around by yourself, they don't usually bother you, it's just if you're in a large group of gringas. And when there's a boy with us we say that we're all his girlfriends. We've been to quite a few churches so far, they like to have bloody jesi (attempting to make jesus plural,) they are so gross that it's funny. My host family is awesome, there is a big age difference like gramma and fuzzy, so that's weird, also his clothes are in my room just like fuzzy's at home, they go to bed early too, our front door opens with a keypad just like at home, my room is bigger than their's just like at home, it's just like living with gramma and fuzzy!

Yesterday we went to Atlixco(sp?) which was beautiful and when I went to the bank in town a stupid puta stole $165 pesos which is $16.50 from me and pocketed it. So that was not cool at all. We tried to get it back, but did not succeed.

I got two baby jesi in my christmas bread so on February 2nd I have to host a baby jesus party. I have to buy a creepy looking jesus and dress it up, I'm going to make my own outfit and make him Mikey from TMNT. It's going to be the shit.

I think that's it for now, I will post later

I love you and miss you all!
