yesterday i had my first charla at the colegio. my topic was autoestima and for the first time, i was extremely grateful for having to do 8 million charlas on autoestima during training. overall, it went really well. there was some really supportive students that i can hopefully work with more closely in the future and also there were some troublemakers, but overall it was a lot fun and i am glad i was able to get my feet wet.
get it?!?! peace corps?!?!? (not apologizing for this).
yesterday was my first charla, and i decided to look official and sported my new polo with my peace corps patch. i was pretty stoked for it.
i also had a little extra time this morning and taught myself how to french braid part of my hair back into a side bun. honestly, this was quite a feat for me. normally i lack in the refined motor skills area…who knows…maybe i will learn how to use chopsticks by the end of this???
also, it got down to about 60 degrees today, which means it is FREEZING here. i actually took a coat out of my winter storage bag. and because i rekindled my love for photo booth today, here are my vain catalog poses:
sorry guys. it’s just not everyday that i get ready and feel photogenic. ohhhhh peace corps…
