Tico Time

I missed my chance to go to visit the local private school again because my Cinema class ran long. But pura vida. I am really enjoying my cinema class, it is not very hard in the sense that my teacher doesn't really grade on Spanish grammar but it is a great refresher for remembering Spanish.

So I am enjoying it because I am learning a lot about movie style and cinematography as well as about the history and culture of Central America. My teacher is a riot too, he calls me Booov and when I told him the correct pronunciation he said booby and well it went down hill from there. We were laughing like middle schoolers. So far my recommendation is to watch City of God, good flick not for kids. The report writing is going well but I am procrastinating right now by blogging. 

We hung out with our Tico partners, local university students who want American exposure, and cleaned the beach. I used a lot of Spanish my partner Dunkan is very helpful. We then played a pretty horrific game of Volleyball but we all had fun. We finished with swimming in the ocean and FOOD!

So Tico Time= the flexibilty of people here to be late for whatever, or for class to run long, or for the bus not to come, or the food not to be ready.
