I think i'm getting a job!

I am considering a job.. I can't believe it! I came into this saying I wasn't going to do anything, but it is getting really old doing the same thing and not having any friends other than my in-laws and Johana :) Carlos' boss wants me to do something in the ICU because they are really interested in teaching everyone English, and showing them how things are in the US. But I am a little iffy about that. I feel like since I don't speak too much Spanish it will be a huge undertaking, and possible a big waste of energy too. Maybe I can do a little work there later, BUT there is another opportunity that I find very interesting. It was suggested before that I can be an international liaison for the hospital. I thought that this would be more up my alley because it would be reaching out to people who speak English. The only issue with this is that I want something that is VERY part time. Carlos talked to the person in charge of International affairs, and she said that they could use me for any time I would be willing to give them. There are a lot of people from Aruba at the hospital. Aruba is so close to Colombia, so they come here to go to the hospital since the health care system is pretty good here. A lot of these patients don't speak too much Spanish, so when they round on the international patients, they need people there that speak English, and it sounds like they don't have many nurses that round with them. So I might do that two mornings a week! I am excited about this because I can't imagine how I would feel being admitted in the hospital and not being able to understand what is going on. Definitely more to come on that!

It rained last night! It was the first rain since we got here! But it didn't do too much for cooling it down in here :( So far it just feels stickier. Ugh. but the air is still really thick, so maybe one all the fog burns off, it will be cooler. I hope so! We are going to the farm today anyway, so we will get some nice cool breezes up there!

Tomorrow we are going out for lunch with a friend of Carlos' and we are so excited! This place is outside the city, and it is like a huge play area for kids! All I had to hear was, "be ready, because its much cooler up there"! I will post pictures of it after we go! The kids are excited to play somewhere new!
