Home Stretch


I only have 2 more days of my practicum, only a few more classes, only a few easy (hopefully) tests, and plenty of time to enjoy my last weeks here in Ecuador.

This weekend doesn’t have too much in store: a trip to a jewelry town and the church garage sale, and then Sunday an extra credit seminar given by some Nobel Peace prize dude (for 25% of our final test).

The week after we may go to an orphanage to help out or we may go to Yungilla. Then during that week Tues-Fri we’re going to Montanita and possibly Salinas beaches to chill.


A few funny things happened yesterday. As I was leaving my house, I was reaching in my backpack to get my MP3 player and my digital camera fell out of its case and bounced 3 times on the concrete. How sad, at least my camera still works.

Then less than 10 minutes later, I wanted to get my camera to take a pic of something, and I juggled my camera case for a few seconds until it fell into a puddle. But hey at least my camera still works.

Then after I took a picture of the best graffiti ever (of a chicken smoking a cigarette), I saw from the bus a boy in a Chicago Bears Jersey. This was not just any Bears jersey; it said Kevin on the back. Pretty awesome. I think it was Kevin Butler from the ’85 Bears.
