Betcha Neva Had Pear Yogurt

So to begin.... this week I have learned that the title of this blog post would be a complete and total failure in the ways of accurate grammar and spelling. So what to do? So in every day we say things like... "I'm gonna go to the store." So should we teach "gonna" or "I am 'going to' go to the store?" To go or gonna... that is the question.

On to pear yogurt.... So I have found some of the best tasting yogurt I have ever had in my life! It's this brand called "Yogur con (insert flavor)." I happen to be eating "Yogur Con Pear" as I write to you... this flavor struck me with much intrigue while I was in the store ... umm, pear yogurt. Can you even buy that in the states? Anyway, it is pretty tasty. I'm sure I pay for it in calories but with all the walking up and down stairs and to and from school I need the extra energy!

Stacey and I went on a cell phone hunt Wednesday night. We got out of class at 6:00, it was already dark. So we had google find and map out the closest Vodafone for us so we would have an accurate idea of our destination. We started on our journey both really tired from the day and not to thrilled that it was only our third day and we had just been given our second teaching assignment. We wanted to get our phones (which we had been trying to do for 3 days) and get home so we could get our lessons planned. We followed all the right streets and made all the right turns only the final street we ended up on is split into approximately 5 streets. No big deal because all the signs we are reading are still confirming our accuracy in travel. We walk and walk... and walk and finally come to an area that looks as though we are getting away from all the businesses. Mind you this is still not a problem because we are approaching a metro station and this phone place is right by the metro station!! Horray, we are soo close and it can't be far now! So we get to the metro station and well it is definitely not the right station. Damn it! Well to make a long story short, after one survived pickpocket attempt, lots of map viewing and almost 2 hours of walking the same 5 blocks we decided it would be best to just start drinking. Stacey and I found a great little pub where they pour the gin and tonics quite generously. We had a nice dinner, some great drinks and called it a night. Oh and here they have lime flavored tonic on tap... craziness huh?! I am happy to report that last night Stacey and I accurately located our new phone company and purchased our phones... all within about 30 minutes, including walk time. Funny huh.. ha.

Class is great but I will write more about that soon. I have been writing for the last 2.5 almost 3 hours.

Mucho Love :)
