Here are some soccer pictures from one of the games before. They are from both our cameras, so that's why there's alot, but I think they are good. Nothing much new going on here, I am nearly done with this semester of classes and hopefully will be starting an an 8 week Western Civ II class after these end. I wanted to do 3 or 4, but out of the ones available online, only Western Civ wasn't full. I can see it as a blessing, though, because it gives me more time to enjoy the last few weeks of Brazil and settle back home without having to worry so much about being near a computer.
Portuguese classes are still going well. I went to one of the Friday events last week and learned how to dance forro (pronounced fo-ho). It was alot easier than I thought, and hopefully, I'll be able to go with some people on the weekends. It's a really simple dance, but it looked like you could do some really cool and complicated stuff with it (sort of like swing, tango, etc.). So, yes, anyone reading this who wants to go, come find me!
In one week, it will be Zack's and my "anniversary". We will have been together 3 years. Wow! Hopefully, we can go to Ilha do Mel, an island off the coast of Paranagua, for a day or two. There is a really cool looking old train that takes people to the coast and I'm dying to go. I've heard some bad things about the bugs, but as it is cooling off, maybe that won't be a problem.
Later in May we will be going to Florianopolis again, this time for a conference that Zack must go to for school. I have no idea what I'll do there, but I'm going to go so I can see everyone again, speak Portuguese, and go to the beach. I will rarely ever turn down a trip to the beach. Though I was born in London, I am really a costal person by nature.
