yawn

I really need to finish this damn personal statement. Granted I had so much freakin time to work on it. Life is good in Lake Atitlan. I think I'm having way too much fun indeed. I'm also learning tons in the hospital and we've seen a lot of really cool things. I was on call last night, which means I get the day off to relax and enjoy. Maybe I should work on my essay perhaps. Or maybe I could spend some time playing with our newly adopted puppy Mashimon aka max for short. We found him on the streets of Panachel and just taking one look at him was too hard to resist for us to carry him back on the boat to Santiago. He's grown a lot in just one week. Initially he was crying like a little baby, granted that he probably is a little baby... perhaps 4 weeks old maybe. The other 2 ladies who live on the property aren't too fond of Max so I decided to let him hang out in my cabin which is ok except he's in a habit of waking up at 4 am every darn day. He's getting much better though, and who knows I may end up taking Max with me through my backpacking adventures and then to the streets of south carolina. Mongo the other dog is like 15 years old and is kinda skeptical of him but we'll see what happens.

Well, today I am spending the day at the hotel posada probably the best hotel in this city. They have the most amazing food and all their coffee is freshly picked from their coffee plantation. awesome! My stomach feels great after i ate that veggie burger.. in fact so damn good. it even tasted like a real animal.. mmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Oh well, I can't thing of any more to write. My leg is kind of itching as I got pretty badly sunburned like 2 weeks ago and everything is peeling off. Damnit..

David and Suzie run a great place at La Posada de Santiago. Lake Atitlan is a wonderful place. Did you climb any volcanoes while you were there?
