little bit of this and that

Update on school. Classes are super long. Every class lasts two hours! And I'm told that isn't bad.

Update on Volunteer projects are slowly getting found. Another rotary scholar and I are going to use the Week of Turism or la semana santa to particpate in a project called un techo para mi pais or a roof for my country. It's kind of like a habitat for humanity type deal. We leave this coming Friday and we will be building houses for 4 days with families in a community of Montevideo. It should be a lot of fun and a great experience.

Update on things I miss. Honey Bunches of Oats. Peanut Butter. Cheddar Cheese. And even though it's sappy, I'll say it; you :). The good news is I have found a substitute for Honey Bunches and cheddar cheese. Honey Nutos, made in Brasil, is the only delicious cereal around, and after analyzing the brazilian cereal market I believe I am solely responsible for the boom that began Feb 10 and will last until December. That's a stock to invest in :P. And the cheese is a Parmesan Farming. It's not cheddar but it has great flavor. The women in the cheese store now know me by name and my tastes. When I walk in they cut me slices of cheese for me to try, and I can try as many as I want. Uh, I feel like I'm in need of sabor a aveia e mel. Saboroso!
