Bum no more!

I got a job!  It was as simple as showing up to the Cambrian Institute that I visited last April and the director Roberto was basically like can you start today?  I will be doing about a month of training and I officially start April 12th when the new session starts.  I don't know many of the details yet...I went on Friday to observe but it was Dia de la Samaritana* and there was just a party and graduation ceremony.
The school is growing which is a good sign...they already opened another close to here in another colonia.  I have the option to work in both schools which could be fun.  There are several other foreign teacher which I am excited about...potential new non-Mexican friends! 
As far as pay goes...I don't really want to talk about it!  I will earn enough to support myself here but in comparison to what I earn in the states it is nothing.  However, I will have alot more free time...there are just classes in the morning and in the evening so I will have about 5 hours in the day to myself! 
I'm excited, a little nervous and anxious!  All the unsual feelings when beginning something new!

*Dia de la Samaritana celebrated around this time every year is a Oaxacan tradition where women make an agua de sabor or flavored water to give to others.  They dress up in traditional clothes to pass out the agua.  They decorate a stand with trees and flowers.  The aguas are delicious!  My favorite is agua de sandia or watermelon.  There was also one called chilacayota which is pumpkin water...sounds gross but is actually very delicious!  They are all made with natural ingredients which make them extra delicious!

Adios...nos vemos...Besitos!
