Since I'm not quite sure what I should write I'm just going to make a list of likes and dislikes, well sort of.
What I love:
1) Friends that encourage you and tell you when you need to update your blog.
2) Watching God do miracles in your life
4) Prayer
5) Friends and Family
5) Great Conversations
6) Writing a Play
7) Teaching English
8) Getting Paid
9) The heat, over 90 everyday and rain for 3 months.
10) Arroz con leche and Flan, basically great food.
What I dislike:
1) The daily pick up statements and random people who hit on you.
2) Guys not getting the clue that you don't like them, for example
Maya: I need to go the Privada Hermosa
Taxista(Taxi-driver): Do you like to go out during the night?
Maya: No not really, I work a lot and I'm usually tired.
Taxista: Do you like beer?
Maya: No
Taxista: What do you do on Saturday?
Maya: I work.
Taxista: and Sunday?
Maya: I go to church.
Taxista: I would like to take you out.
Maya: No thank you.
From this point on the process of telling him NO a thousand times will continue until I leave.
Seriously this has gone past the point of frustration and now I am straight up annoyed.
3) This kind of goes with number two, but hating that I can't look nice for myself without some guy trying to hit on me. LEAVE ME ALONE, PLEASE!!!!!!
4) The heat, over 90 everyday and rain for 3 months.
5) The lack of trash cans, put your trash in a trash can, PLEASE!
Well I am enjoying my time here over all. I have my own prayer slot now 12pm-2pm Monday through Friday, and a new guy is going to join me everyday. So SWEET, b/c he can really play the guitar and I can't so it allows me to sing more. This also give me extra practice with my spanish, b/c he doesn't speak english, so I have to speak and pray in spanish all the time, DIFFICULT!!!!!
The only thing that has been bugging me lately is the constant remarks from men, I am sooo sick of it, truly. I want to be able to leave my house looking really nice and not get hit on about 30 times that day. Ridiculous, right!
I'm currently writing a play I was inspired when I read Matt's screen play. Right now I have about 30/40 mins, but I have a long way to go. It's fun when I'm inspired but I'm not right now, hopefully something will come this weekend.
I'm excited about the next couple of months because a lot of people will be visiting here to learn more about the CDO and how they can start one where they live in Mexico. Also individuals from the states will be visiting for a month long internships. I'm so excited about this. I don't know what else there is to update. I just ask that you guys will pray for me so I can continue to do the Lords will and know what more he has for me while I'm here and what I am to do next.
Voy a trater de escribir mas muy pronto. Espero que algo me inspira para escribir.
(I'm going to try to write more very soon. I hope that something inspires me to write.)
I'm talking about my blog of course!!!!!

Maya! Thanks for updating! =)
I miss you a lot...I don't know if I'll be able to visit in July cause of plane ticket prices =/...the cheapest I could find right now is $637 roundtrip from Mexico City.
Let me know if there is anything I can pray for you about!
what, is #3 of the things you love private? there is no #3 on your list. =( is it the name of a suave young mexican named pedro who plays at the IHOP that has set your heart aflutter?
=P
good update! we miss you a lot up here...actually, we found a pseudo-deal for a resort on bookit.com and who knows, maybe we'll have a big lapse in judgment and head down there! if we do, you gotta come visit.
I forgot to right down #3, sorry about that. It's hard to say what it would be but I would have to say, when I just get the opportunity to read and allow God to speak through literature. Sorry Joe that it isn't a Mexican guy, but who knows one day maybe!!! :)
