So yesterday I got SKYPE! It is by far the best way to call home, so cheap, I highly recommend it. If you have a microphone and headphones we can even talk for FREE sometime. Just let me know and Ill email you my username. So, yep got it yesterday, got to talk to my Nana and Grandpop and Landon, Noelle, and Paigey. So good to hear their voices. Haha, but the funny thing is that when I first tried to call, the microphone wasnt set up and Nana couldnt hear me. I called a second time and she sounded ticked, "Hello....now this is the second time you've called and I cant hear you, it must be some political call so please stop calling!" and she hung up on me!!! Haha, oh Nana. No, it was just your granddaughter calling from Mexico. Fortunately the third time I figured it out and we got to talk. Still cant believe Ill be home in a month! The time has just flown by. Its crazy. Some of the foreign teachers are dropping like flies and deciding whether to come back after Christmas or not, teaching the spoiled teenagers here can be incredible battle, but I am very content in Preschool with my kiddos and will be excited to see them again after the holidays. Today they were so cute and wanted to know what each of their names were in English. Of course some have no translation and stay the same but they were tickled to know that Juan Pablo is John Paul, Natalia is Natalie, and Marco is Mark. I have one little girl whos super quiet but super curious named Shamillet and she will ask me constantly what things are called in English and Im delighted to tell her. next week well learn the letter V and were gunna make a paper mache volcano. Which as I remember was the reason I got online in the first place, to research how were gunna do this.
So this weekend were staying in Pachuca, taking Jenny out for her birthday and probably seeing the Pachuca Tuzos play their last game before playoffs. Tranquilo. Talk to you soon...

Oh Britt,
I miss you so much! I have skype i think, so we should definitely plan to talk sometime... I always want to call you when I am out and about (of course I don't have service at my house) and then I get so upset when I remember that I can't! Anyway, things at school are good. I am soooo ready for Thanksgiving break though. Everyone is just tired. I have handed out some good detentions (1 kid called me "babe" and another said the f word twice to my face!!!) but overall I LOVE it. Well, we are about the start learning the preterite in Spanish II and subject pronouns/ser in Spanish I, so we'll see what I have to say after a week of that! :) I wish you were here to laugh with about this crazy stuff... I think about you more than you can imagine and I just wish good things for you. Sounds like my wishes are coming true!! :) I do really really miss you though, so hurry up and come back to me! :)
BESOS
