With only 7 days left, we all enjoyed our free day together. We all got to bond with each other and have lots of fun in and out of the hostel. But before we got to enjoy our free time, we spent last night together putting on a talent show with such talented and goofy performances. We had amazing singers, Idalis, Alma, Tiffany, Allyson, Rachel, and me :). We also had a great dancing performance by Nyle, Jennifer, Cheston, Tiffany, and Idalis and a hilarious improv by Noe, Nyle and Cheston; and such dramatic acting especially by Alessandro. We ended the night in such a fun little bonding way <3. We woke up at 8:30 AM finally! Extra hours of sleep, thank goodness! We ate some yummy pancakes with papayas, pineapple, watermelon, and bananas! MMM! Then we had to start our CAP presentation for Monday. We all are going to work hard to leave a good impact on a little part of Matagalpa <3. We then finally got 6 hours of free time! Everyone spent their day making calls at the calling center, getting some yummy coffee and ice cream, walking around exploring and of course I went shopping! Overall it was a long day of relaxing, bonding, new friendships forming, and lots of fun! A break that we ALL needed and I'm glad I was leader of the day for our free day because of all the positive energy and vibes I had that kept everyone going today, and I was so proud of everyone really taking the time to bond and chill like a real big family:)
<3.
MY LOVELY JAZMINE!!! You look beautiful daughter!!! Looks like the weather and food are doing great for all of you. Great job being a leader. A great leader teaches everyone how to be a better leader and give props to everyone. Nothing like friends bonding over food π The love of family and the admiration of friends is much more important than wealth and privilege.
I’m so proud of you my lil flower. 7 days seems far away….but I can’t wait to see you. Would’ve love to hear from you. I stepped away and missed your call ;( All the other time the phone is with me at all times waiting for your call grrrrrrrrrr lol
It was one of the hottest day here in NY. 92 degrees. I started the day at church. I’m helping 1-3 graders to read and write. It’s a good feeling. Afterwards I walked the boardwalk @ Coney Island. I thought of you and Lizzette on the rides. Finally I had a Mango smoooothie π XOXOOXOXOOXO hurry back so we can have a daddy and daughter day, your treat lol kidding π
Glad to hear you’re all having a great time! To Tiffany- I can’t wait till your back! Until then, enjoy yourself, and keep helping out the community π I’m also glad you got to share your amazing voice with the crew! Love you!! <3
It is so nice to see all of your smiling faces every morning. I was soooooo happy to hear your voice Sophia. I miss you sooooo much but I am also very proud you are there spending your precious time giving back to a community by giving yourself in a positive way, especially in what is such a foreign land to your family & friends. Also remember what Biggie says “spread love, it’s the the Brooklyn way <3" Have a great night I love you & can't wait to read tomorrow what was on the agenda today XOXOXO
