Weekend and beginning of the week!

So I am just going to start from Friday because I have not been able to give a good update recently.  Friday we had our first oral gospel presentation where we had to share the gospel in our own creative way in 3 to 5 minutes.  it was way harder than i thought, and crazy to me that sharing the gospel is hard to do.  But it went good and we all did great! Friday night we went into town, ate amazing food, saturday and sunday we scuba dived, and then sunday I got to bike into town by my self which was such a good get away.  Weekends are so fun here, and a good break from school.

This week our speaker is John Peterson.  He is teaching on HOW to read the bible.  We are studying John this week, and have to read it everyday.  It takes me about 3 hours. Then we are tested the next morning over where exactly stories are in the book, which miracles are in John, which verses are in what chapter.  Its really intense but I am learning so much.

I eat lunch everyday with our cook, Laura.  She is incredible. She is a local and is one of the funniest and most blunt people I have ever met.  Her english is very good, so its easy to communicate. It is one of my favorite times of the day. Its so cool to see the different ways these people have grown up.

I am getting so close to the people here and its crazy how spending every second with people makes you bond so fast.  They are all great and some of the girls are becoming really good friends.  I could not have asked for a better team.  I still can't believe I wake up every morning to the ocean.

 This is me and Tina.  She is probably one of the FUNNIEST people I have ever met. She is from Minnesota and we are bunk buddies.So glad the Lord has blessed me with good friends here.

 Yep, we work out together here.  A little insanity.  I didnt think workout videos work, but i was so sweaty. I blamed the humidity

 So this looks jank, but some DANG good food comes from here! And its sooo cheap.  A little to the right and youre staring at the Caribbean! Its so BEAUTIFUL here.

This is where I go for the internet cafe.  I always get Pineapple juice, then its free internet.  I went there sunday by myself and met a couple from Idaho, and they bought me pineapple juice and french fries and we sat and talked for about an hour.  It was such a nice treat.  This place is literally straight on the beach.  I LOVE it here!
