San Francisco, here we come!!!

In one week, mi familia and I will finally have an amazing reunion with my Mom, uncles, aunts, cousins and baby Carmen, the newest addition to the California branch of the family. We are very excited and are busily packing up our things in preparations of this long-awaited trip. It'll be Lilica's first international flight and our first family trip overseas.



Here at work, there isn't much to do, but I am trying to study every student's name from various lists and photos so that I can call on them personally when our September lessons commence again. When it's possible, I go out and help with different sports/extra curricular clubs that practice every day in this sweltering heat. Otherwise, I stay in the office and try and get something productive accomplished.



When I return alone from the trip, I'll be heading out to English Camp (see the poster below). That's looking to be an exciting project as well. Most of us in the N.E.T. program will be staying overnight at the camp to invigorate the junior high participants with an all-English environment and get them to use the language with ease , or, at least, without embarrassment. Communication comes in many forms and I hope that the lines of communication that we all establish at camp will be fruitful and reoccurring.
