I know, its been quite awhile since I have posted anything...but you know I dont like to post unless I have something with enough substance to write about and honestly, nothing has really happened in the past while.
I work a lot, its´still fun but I do get sick of people sometimes, and with not drinking as much the humor of drunkeness looses it´s humor after many nights sober.
My classes finished as it´s summer holidays and most people go to the beach so other than the hostel I don´t have a (paying) job at the moment.
The charity is going well...we have raised enough money for the girls to have bathing suits for the summer and I have been a few times to hang out, play cards and read them stories.
To be honest I have gotten kind of stuck inside the hostel...I dont leave much. I have been reading a lot and have been really tired as its rainy season.
Like I said...not really anything interesting to write about...in fact, it just shows that my life isn´t always as adventurous as you make think.
However, with my life being pretty...normal...at the moment, one of the most laid-back chilled out things was probably one of the best I have had in awhile.
Last Tuesday we had a power outage - very common - at around 7:30 pm. ¨Great, this means the bar closes.¨
We lit candles and put them in empty beer bottles which gave the bar a nice relaxed atmosphere, but a bar just isnt the same without music.
Lucky for us we had some musically inclined guests. With a tamborine, table tops, stools, our condiment buckets and metal napkin holders the Brazilians played and sang for almost 4 hours non-stop. It was awesome. People were happy, clapping, cheering and for once talking as they couldnt use their phones. They saved the night. It just goes to show that really, we can survive - if only for a little bit - without todays technology and actually socialize.
I took a video, you can´t see much but neither could we, it´s more about the music. Hope you enjoy.
