OoOoOoOoh its like Christmas!!

So, today I am writing this from the comfort of my leather couch in my apartments living room....how? I found someones wireless connection in the apartment. Now I acutally have some free time to write a blog! That is why it is like christmas, because i got this great unexpected little surprise!

This weeks class members are awesome! I wasnt too excited to have the executive night class becuase usually they are not very energetic, but this time everyone is laughing, giving comments, helping eachother out, and having a good time. its great....but before i forget when we were in Guaratuba over the weekend Camila and I sat out by the pool one night and watched pride and prejudice in the nice weather under a super super full moon....then we did these interviews to make fun of the interviews they do on altas horas with audiance members. So here is the interivew that i did for Camila:
I know I know my legs are super white...lol, cant help it!

My “Serginho Grozman” Interview with Camila 5-11-06 in Guaratuba, Parana Brazil at the “hotel” Santa Paula by the pool. 11:23 pm.

What is one thing that surprised you about Brazil when you arrived?

How everyone has grown up so much.

If you had to choose one person to take back to the US with you who would it be?

Just one? Dang it. It would be my mom and my dad, but it would be unfair to choose my mom, maybe 43021 (laughs). A cute boy with brains.

What are your thoughts on American boys?

I love that they are so respectful, but I hate how they are so chicken. Like they can be super respectful, but just too scared to do anything.

When was the last time you ate a Peanut Butter Sandwich?

Oh my, I have no idea. My mom had some peanut butter at her house so maybe a month ago but it wasn’t a real one because there was no jelly.

How do you picture your life in 10 years from now?

Sighs, happy. With a brave man by my side. Hopefully. And having mud fights with my kids.

If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be and why?

That’s a real tough question, a lot of people ask me that and I never really answer. Um, um…I really like the US. Being here and even being Brazilian I realize I like the US, but I will go where ever the Lord wants me to go.

What is the biggest thing that surprised you about me?

Your Portuguese for sure, I was like wow you didn’t even serve a mission in Brazil…I was like wow.

What are your thoughts on what you have been doing on this internship?

Laughs, don’t get me started! Okay ill try to just summarize. Basically I wouldn’t mind to be dying from working too hard, the problem is that im too alive still…meaning I’m not getting more oppertunities to work.

What has been your most exciting time in your life so far?

That’s such a tricky question, can I give you three answers? Okay im going to give you the cheesy answer, the random answer, and the real answer. First the cheesy:My mission. Random: Eating coxinha na rua XV com som no fundo “quarenta e três zero vinte um!” Real one: I really like right now you know being in brazil, because this is helping me to figure out my future; or at least what I want.

What is in your purse right now?

I don’t have a purse, I just dumped everything in my backpack. I’m scared to have a purse here, not because someone will steal it but because I might forget it somewhere. And here its not like the US where if you loose something you can find it.

Do you have anything else to add?

There is a guy wearing a sunga right in front of us….what should we do? Run for out lives! Dang it they’re gonna kick us out.

She interviewed me too, so if you want to know my answers to her questions she will be posting them sometime in the future at www.canagata.blogspot.com

Well, today we went running and went to the store. Came home and cleaned the apt, and then watched "what not to wear" yes, they have that show here imported from the US...my guilty little pleasure lives on in brazil! After that we went into the office to have a meeting with Roberto about our traveling arrangements for the next comming weeks. Looks like we will be out of town for the 18 of this month until the 4th of december....we are excited! I hope that everything works out for us to go, it would be nice to do that. I love curitiba, but i would like to get out of the city and go to some smaller ones, I realized i like being in those a lot here in Brazil, they have a more laid-back pace that I like. I keep learning new little things about myself and my likes and dislikes while I'm here and I am constantly surprised at what I learn.

Tomorrow is the last day of the executive course that we have been teaching this week. I really will miss having them in our class, if every class could be like them I would be so happy! Everyone keeps asking me where I served my mission here in brazil, and then they are shocked to hear that i didnt...lol. Guess my portuguese is improving. Ill know its good the day that people cant tell if im brazilian or not :) Until then, i will keep practicing!

Well, I hope that everyone is having a good week so far, funny how the time flew by!
