Day 36, 37, 38: Weekend Update


Day 36, 37, 38: Weekend Update

I did not do much this past weekend. On Friday I went shopping with some of the girls and I bought shoes. They are adorable. They are purple suede flats with a bow. I wore them to the youth dance we went to later that night.

We had learned some line dances in order to teach the kids, but if anyone knows me they know that I am the worst choreographed dancer ever. It was super hard for me to try to keep beat, but I did the best I could.
Brazilian teenagers are very interesting. They look to be tagged in pictures and are obsessed with Facebook. Even if they only met you for 4 minutes, they still want to add you on Facebook, its crazy.

On Saturday we went to the Museum of the Northeastern Man. It was a museum kind of summarizing all the stuff we have been seeing and learning about on our trip, like the sertanejo. It was neat to see everything summed up. But later that night I got really sick and didn’t go to the soccer game and just stayed home and rested.

On Sunday we went to mass to see the Gregorian chants in Olinda. It was really fantastic, even though I am not a fan of mass, it was the Gregorian chants that I found really relaxing. I also really enjoyed being a church that was over 400 years old, and that was built just a few years after Brazil was discovered.

After that our house mom decided to take us on a little tour of Recife, and we went to the Bernnand statues that no one in our group wanted to go to except for Cristina and I. it was fantastic. I liked it a lot. However, I was still sick so I felt bad for most of the day.

That night was our goodbye party with Carbonel, his wife is literally gorgeous. He is a sweet guy and I hope everything he is working on turns up well.
