Still Adjusting

This is my fifth day being here in San Cristobal and I feel like I am starting to get into my routine. I wake up at roughly 7 am(depending on how late I was up the night before). I shower, dress and my host mom fixes me breakfast which has been cereal and fruit every morning. I like my breakfast because its nothing crazy like some of the other breakfasts the other students are eating. I leave the house at 830 to meet Dani at the corner of Diego so we can walk to class together. The school is about a 15 minute walk and its pretty much all up hill..... but the view is beautiful. I am taking a grammar class and a practical conversation class. Both of my classes have the same 3 people in them but different teachers. My teachers are permanent residents of San Cristobal and are awesome! Class lasts about 3 hours and then we all go to our new favorite cafe in the main square for coffee and to do homework. I have to be home around 2pm for lunch, which is the main meal of the day. All the kids come home from school for lunch. In my house I have a mom named Guadalupe and her son named Felix, his wife named Mida and their 3 kids who are 9,6 and 2. We also have a live in maid who sleeps right outside my room in a corner. She is very Mayan looking but the rest of my family are very modern. Not a single person in the house speaks English which at times is very difficult but it is getting better. The kids are fasinated by my language and stop and listen everytime I speak in English. After lunch, I finish my homework....which by the way, I hate doing homewrok here.Its not hard but the last thing I want to do is homework. There is just so much to see here! Im have a little culture shock but its getting better. All the people are very patient with the fact that I do not speak much Spanish. I think one of the biggest thing that shocks me are the young Indian women who look like they are 15 who carry the children wrapped around their bodies and the kids just sleep all day. It is pretty cold here and most of the time i wish I had a heavy jacket....but I would rather be cold right now than suffering the god aweful heat back at home....SORRY GUYS!!! haha!!
