Volunteer Time

Hey, So we swore in today which makes us official volunteers, which is nice. We're all staying in a hostel tonight, which is why I have internet right now. To answer the question about Semana Santa, it's holy week, so it has to do with Easter. Also a little random tidbit: they sell used clothes down here that came from the U.S., and almost all the Guatemalan men wear them all the time. Yesterday on the bus the Ayudante was wearing a shirt that said Steve Blake's All-Star Basketball camp, and I thought of all you Blazer fans, and how you're probably mourning the trade with Blake and Outlaw (especially Alison). I guess the team's still doing well, which is the most important thing. That's all, sleep time, making No-Bakes tomorrow.

  1. Yup! They beat the Mavericks tidily on Thursday night...

    And we do miss Blake and Outlaw, but we've needed someone like Camby.

    Also in other news, Kansas State is currently in the process of falling to Butler. Uh-oh for my bracket.

    This March Madness has been totally crazy!
