notes

1. Soccer is not a woman´s sport here. Girls do not play soccer in school or outside of school on teams. Yesterday when we got a soccer ball out for the children to play with in the courtyard, Guada´s daughter, also my student, started to cry, she wanted to play soccer and the boys wouldn´t let her. I asked, why can´t she just play? Guada explained that it´s different here than in the states, girls don´t play soccer in Argentina.

2. My morning shuttle busdriver doesn´t stop to let people off, he just slows down. Some people get let off on the highway. I have no idea where they go.

3. Must do something about the excessive nose-picking. I go home everday feeling like I have kid-boogers stuck to my clothes.

4. It´s the end of my third week of teaching and I have almost completely lost my voice. And have a small fever. Boogers.

More later.
