Some Week
Okay, so this is what it has come down to for my internship. The other student and I are both frustrated and have talked about it with other people. Well, we both agreed we need to say something to our field liason the person above the field instructor to see what she recommends. So, I wrote a draft letter today and sent it to the other student for review and comments. Hopefully she will get this by Monday and tell us whats up with us and if we are the only people to ever speak up about this placement. If so wasn't the same in the past nothing has really changed, is it us or was everyone else just kind of laid back and lazy about their internship experiences? I'll keep you all updated on what happens with this whole frustrating, craziness, be sure of that!
Other than that other happenings right now. . . I've been watching a lot of the coverage about Hurricane Rita. I think if you are an American right now this hurricane season has caught your eye in some way. At least made some Americans question the government more, which we should always be doing and the state of how ready this nation is for any disaster wherever, and whatever it is! We aren't immune to things just because we are the United States of America . We shouldn't assume that if something does happen we will be okay the next day because of our system of things are because of who we are. Without wanting to show my political beliefs in any way, I think that most people would agree that in the wake of Katrina a better job could've been done on many levles.
On a much lighter note I finally got a CD that I ordered online this week. La Quinta Estacion is the name of the band from Mexico and the CD is called Las flores de alquier. It is a new hot band from Mexico and I really like the music a lot! One of their songs, Algo Mas is the title song for the telenovela Inocente de Ti. This is my favorite telenovela at this time and this is what made me find out about the band because I really liked the song. The show ends Thursday October 6! It is so soon, es triste! Will Florecita ever be happy and with who? Juan Alberto or Sergio? I am hoping Juan Alberto because they are truly in love with each other, but Florecita has been the true victim in all of this. Juan Alberto's mom is a freak to put it in a nice way. They are from a very rich upper class family and of course Florecita is like an undocument immigrant whose family is very poor, so imagine the problems there! I really like it and think I might have problems when it goes off the air, I get so into the characters in their lives you know. haha! It better be a very happy ending that is all I saying!
I also met with my friend from Costa Rica today, she is very nice and friendly! We of course talked in Spanish most of the time until her friend from Paraguay came and then they ran to catch the bus for Wal-Mart. I love to speak in Spanish and want to talk it as much as possible, if only I was super fluent and awesome at it! But then again most people cannot carry on conversations right? Like I said some people think I am kind of weird because I seem to be obsessed with Spanish everything. I almost wish I was Latino or something because its like I love everything from this rich culture. I find myself watching TV only in Spanish for days on end even the news with Jorge Ramos and all of that. I could go on you know. . .
Tonight I went to a friend's birthday party at her house. That was fun ate some cheese cake and pineapple. I played the game Scotland Yard for the first time and I was the one that caught the criminal. It was fairly early in the game, but of course it was a lot of our first time playing. It was kind of fun! Then I went back with my other friend and we talked some, he is having a busy semester. He promised he would keep me updated on whats going on with him, and would think about ways to help himself and take care of himself out. I hope so!
Okay, I am going to probably be up watching the eye of Hurricane Rita come in ashore. I am still up and am not really tired!
Catch everyone later!
