13-7-09 Monday (I had to look at my watch for that one)
I’m really enjoying myself here, and I feel really good and so.....natural I guess. I’m running every day, I’m eating healthy (for what I’m given of course), getting 8 hours of sleep a night at least....and I haven’t put on mascara more than a couple times since I’ve left CA, and not once since I’ve been in Brazil. Crazy if you know me, huh? I’m going on daily swims, having lots of time for studying, relaxing in hammocks and practicing my portuguese. Everyone is helping me with my portuguese, with the girls, and teaching me things about Brazil. Today we were all at ‘a turbina’ swimming and I awed them all with my back flips...later I taught them all how to do it off the dock. I took some pretty awesome shots of them in the air too. I’ll post those soon. Great kids.
At dinner I roused them all up for another challenge...but this time to eat one of the little apicante peppers I found yesterday. Julia, or JJ, from São Paulo was gutsy enough to eat pretty much the whole thing! A few others touched it to their tongue and freaked out...haha. I’m not going to lie. They’re spicy. My mouth was burning for a bit.
They quickly devoured the bread...milk...yogurt....water...but finally found solice in the jello. Ha. Day three and I’ve already been coined the crazy one. I think I’m on a roll down here.
