Yeah its been a while since I last wrote and that is because I have been running/biking/busing around the city like crazy trying to get everything just right for my upcoming regional competition where the best student business groups from Granada, Masaya, and Carazo (other departments in Nicaragua) will be competing for the opportunity to go to the national competition. I have had to find a place, judges, prizes, chairs, tables, powerpoint projector not to mention that I am trying to get the press involved, find someone to video, trying to make this thing big. And lets not forget the most important aspect is that the students are ready and well prepared. So yeah I have been stressed (in a good way) and running around uneducated in how to properly solicit prizes from Nicaraguan businesses and just how to put together an event in Granada. It has been a wonderful learning experience for me…..meaning that next year will be much much easier and smoother.
Anyway, Brent (a buddy of mine that I met in Israel) came to visit me this weekend from SFla. He came in on Thursday and left on Sunday and we had an amazing time. Visited some beautiful places, ate good food, drank good rum, and bought good cigars (but we never smoked them). Just ask him if you want to see how much you could have by visiting me down here.
I would write more but as the title says, I am actually going nuts right now. I just got another couchsurfer into my home (at least the one I am taking care of) and am trying to play a good host while trying to get all my work done. I do have my priorities right but there just isnt enough time in the day to complete the list! hahaha.
Competition is Thursday. Until Thursday afternoon, dont talk to me. I will put up lots of pics and stories afterwards.
