Shoe Shoppin


The other day we went with Eury and Marvin to "El Centro" to buy them some shoes. We didn't to buy anything, we just went along for the ride. Downtown is so crazy. There are just people everywhere. We took a taxi down there so it didn't take very long. There is always a ton of traffic. I still have a hard time keeping my eyes open the whole time in the taxi. There are a million stores downtown. We went to a ZCMI and it was really nice and air conditioned (something that I really miss alot). It was fun to get out and walk around. It only took Eury about....5 hours to find shoes! We were so tired. Marvin kept telling her he was gonna kill her if she tried on one more pair of shoes. It was pretty funny. This week has been really good. We are just working hard to get ready for the new batch of students. They will get here on Monday. Five of the students from the past generation were hired as employees, so it is fun to have more of our friends stay here. I am in charge of getting the kitchen all ready. I have to write out all the systems and basically everything that goes on in the kitchen. One of the students that was hired, Gaby, will be working in the kitchen so I am training her this week. Calv is busy working on the websites and the videos. One of the guys hired will help him, so that will be good for him too. The next generation we will have 50 day students and 25 night students. That is the most we have ever had so it'll be exciting. I started an exercise program this week with calv and I and some of the employees. It has been really good so far. I really missed working out so it feels great to get back into doing it every day. I am feeling much better from the sickness from last week.
