Que Pasa Uds! Yo espero que todo sea bueno en Clevland. Solo dos dias desde mi primera entrada pero mucho sentimientos han occurido en los dos dias.
Translation: What's up you guys! I hope that everything is great in Cleveland. Only two days since my first entry, but many feelings have occurred en those two days.
Sooo, what's new. A lot and at the same time not a lot. Friday I basically spent most of my day walking back and forth to the Casa De Oracion-CDO-(House of Prayer), which is about 40 minutes each way, or praying at CDO. Then I went to bed, I was so exhausted from all of the walking, still it was a great day.
Most of my adventures occurred on Saturday, today. First I went to UNITER to take my test which wasn't processed so I don't know what to think about that other then the fact that I have to meet certain graduation requirements so I will fight to get into the classes I need, with a Godly attitude and heart, of course. After, I was invited to Martin's birthday lunch, that was a lot of fun and I met some new people there, including a recent college grad from South Carolina, teaching English full time in Cuernavaca. The food was great, except for this dish where the meat looked like the foot of a pig, FUCHILA (GROSSSS)!!!!!! The worst thing about it is I think it really was the foot of a pig.
So everything was going great and on the way home I wanted to share a cab with Kendra, the other girl from Cleveland. Well this is were I learned a funny but not so great way to learn spanish. NON STOP for about 20 minutes the taxi driver was hitting on me, he said he was 30 but I think he was 40. If you have ever been to Mexico, you might know that the men are extremely forward and will even ask you to Marry them or tell you they love you, though this is the first time they have seen you. Strange I know, but you get use to it quickly. So the taxi ride was extremly comical and I had the opportunity to practice the spanish Word NOOO!!!, many times, LOL!! He went from you are beautiful to will you be my girlfriend, all in spanish of course. It's funny b/c I remember one girl who would pretend she didn't know spanish in a taxi ride to avoid this, maybe that is a good idea, but you do get to practice the most when in a Taxi, I don't know, the jury is still out on this matter.
Well other than that my emotions where up and down b/c trusting God for money was really getting to me. I'm good for the first six weeks but it's up to Christ after that, but I do have one student to tutor, so PRAISE BE TO GOD for that!!!! Going from stress (test) to sad (money) to amused (taxi driver), has really worn me out. So even though it's early I think I'm heading to bed.
Genesis 15:1 "Do not be afraid Abram. I am your shield, your very great reward." And so the Lord shall be for me, thank you Christ.

"I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety." ~Psalm 4:8
I always like to think about this Psalm when I am tired and going to bed but having some fears about the future. I know you don't need to be reminded of this verse cuz you just were talking about how you are trusting God to provide for your needs. But it is often a comfort to me and it seemed to touch on what you were saying, so I wrote it.
Hope your feet are less tired when you read this! =)
