A day in the life...

Here's mi horario diario....

5:15 Wake up
5:30 Morning Walk in the Gym
6:20 Breakfast
6:55 Buenas Dias (school announcements/prayer in gym w/ girls)
7:20/30ish - first class begins
7:30-9:25 - I accompany the school psychologist and help with kinder and pre-k small groups. She has been working to help develop their listening and social skills. (since i have a psy degree they think i am a qualified psychologist which i would be fine with if i could speak spanish!)
9:25-10 - RECREO (a break for all classes aka time to eat pupusas :)
10:00 - 12:20 - Work with psychologist or help Karina & Gina with English classes
12:20 - Almuerzo/Lunch
1:00 - 3:00
Monday & Tuesday Gina and I are the basketball coaches. Depending on the day we have 12 to 16 girls. It's pretty much a crazy house, street ball kind of game. We are starting with the basics, dribbling dribbling and more dribbling , rebotar in spanish as we quickly learned)
Also, Gina nad I have started teaching English to a few of the sisters, they are really cute :). This happens either on Monday or Tuesday depending on their availability.
Wed - Friday
I help Karina with her afternoon English classes.
4:30 - 7:00 - Homeowork/Chores/Rosary with the internas, the 14 girls that live here at the school (this is basically a time we "supervise" them as they finish their chores and prayer time)
7:00ish - Cena/Dinner
8:00ish - Time to go to my room because they let out the guard dogs and everyone has to be in their rooms so they don't get eaten hehe

I have put a lot of "ish" because everything here runs on Latin America time which means that things happen when they happen. Although you have a schedule does not mean they follow it!
