7 Months to Go!

So I'm getting into the home stretch. I've been in Guatemala for 20 months. I can't believe it. It feels like time has flown. I've still been trying to keep things on track. With studying and working. I had a nice interruption to every day life on my trip with Jessica. We had a great time going to the lake, Antigua, and spending a few days here. We were also able to go to Honduras for a few days. It was so fun and relaxing. Although there wasn't a lot to do in the town we went to; the Mayan ruins there are amazing. We played around the park for about 4 hours. Just looking at all cool old stuff. It was a really nice break and a great trip. Now it's almost September and things are really going to start moving quickly. With only 2 months left of school and the Guatemalan elections quickly approaching time is in a crunch. We are trying to get work done while waiting for this turn of events. The elections are causing a lot of increased tensions all over Guatemala which is hard to handle but I guess all part of the experience.
