relaxing

hi I don't have much to write about but people keep asking me to add more posts haha. Lets see what have i been doing....yesterday i went to "El Hueco" with the young nun Sor Maria Teresa..it was alot of fun! Imagine downtown Boston where all the stores are mixed with a craxy huge flea market. There's a bunch of empty buildings that people set up little stores /stands in niches or holes hence the name el hueco. There where stands for everything!!!!!!! It was like if cvs, WalMart, bjs, home depot, radio shack, target and the mall were converted together into a flea market.i didn't buy anything, just people watched haha it was so exciting being surrounded by sooooo many Colombians!!!! And cute Colombian guys too :) omg and there were bakeries!!! And people selling cut up mango and sugar cane juice! We rode the train and bus there, it was cool I felt like a local :)
Today I roamed around the Convent and school grounds, shadowed sor Maria Teresa while she worked, sunbathed, and had lunch w. My aunt at the school cafe where Elquin & his wife work (he is family  on the Duarte siide). Oh!!!!! His son Camilo wants to see J balvin with me!!! Yay!! And supposedly Zion y Lennox are performing too!! I really hope we end up going! 
 i was supposed to go to a town that is really low.income or as they say un barrio pobre, but the priest over there is hospitalized until Friday so we're going later this week. I just came back from visiting an elderly woman who lives nearby the school/convent. She lives in a really small humble home with her sick husband. I went with two nuns and 8 girls from third, second and first grade. They go twice a month to bring groceries to families in need.we also went to the lady's neighbor's house where an older woman lives with her 4 kids, some grandchildren and two orphaned kids. They talked about the struggles they had in their life and how they never had the chance to go to school and how they live really humble lives. The most moving part was to hear the students tell the family that they should keep faith and never give up. But it much more cuter hearing it from a 7 year old girl in Spanish. After we went back to the elderly woman's house and talked about what we learned. One of the nuns lectured the girls and called them out it was kind of funny, she was like "see Mariana that woman cried because she couldn't study and here you are doing bad in class!" yikes...one girl said when I get home im going to tell my mom she doesn't need to buy ipods blackberries computers unless she needs them for her job (apparently this girl's mom has boob and butt implants according to the nuns) haha..it was a great experience I hope I get to go on more trips.
Right now im waiting for the nuns to get out of a meeting (they have soooo many) and im going to see ice age at the movie theater woo woo!  Hope everyone is doing well :D
