day 4

today was not a very good one. classes are good because they take up a good chunk of the day but after that i was at a loss of what to do. you figure i'm living in the middle of the cloud forest i would never run out of something to do but one of the cons of taking afternoon classes to is that when i finish everyone else is already out and about exploring the town. next week they are giving me the option of going to class 7:00-12:30 instead of 8-12 and 1-230 which i think will work except i'd have to wake up at 5:45 or so, but i guess no pain no gain. i got out of my afternoon lessons, got on the internet, and headed home around 4. it was my first time to walk home by myself and of course i got lost because i'm horrible at directions. i really could've used henry the navigator (aka winkler) to help me find my way back. i was only lost for about 15 minutes before i realized i just hadn't walked far enough. the great thing about monteverde is they don't believe in naming streets or putting up markers of any kind which would make life much too easy. when i got home i did my homework which took about 45 minutes. i haven't really had homework since freshman year so it's fairly annoying but i know it will pay off in the long run. after that i layed around, ate dinner, pitied myself some, made a few phone calls and was asleep by 9pm out of sheer boredom.
