Katie and I have rented a plot of ground from the community garden, where we can plant, tend and harvest all kinds of vegetables during the summer. We went to the library tonight to check out some books on gardening. We know nothing about gardening. We found some gardening books and began looking through them but then we noticed all the romance novels on the shelf behind us. We spent the rest of the night at the library reading the synopsis for each book on the back cover. This experience has led us to the conclusion that we are not in love with each other, nor have we ever truly experienced love. Our courtship is as banal as the vegetables that we will soon kill in our garden. We know this because we failed the "Bodice Ripper" quiz. The quiz is composed of lines taken directly from the back cover of Grandma's favorites. (You know all old ladies read this lascivious literature, Penny even wrote her own.) So go ahead and see how your love life rates.
1. Have you ever "masked feelings behind a teasing seduction"?
2. Do you ever find yourself "against all will aching for his (or her) touch"?
3. How long has it been since you were last "pushed closer into the embrace of a warrior"?
4. Do you often "yearn for a roguish lover and the fire of an everlasting passion"?
5. On a scale of one to ten how dangerous was your own personal "tailspin of love and white hot passion"?
6. Is the "seductive devil responsible for your social ruin sitting close enough to kiss"?
7. Have you "sampled the sensuous charms of a tempting young chit"?
8. Are you fond of "passion that inconveniently ignites in the face of disaster"?
9. Has your love life ever "lead two sworn enemies to a most unanticipated destination: the bedchamber"?
10. Do you ever look like you just got kicked in the groin whenever your forbidden love draws near unto you?
That last question wasn't taken from the back of a romance novel but the people on all of the covers looked like thay had just been kicked in the groin. Now thats passionate!
We slept on a private beach for 2 night, I slept in the car every night figures, and spent the other two at the orpahnage in the bunk house. 
We pretty much played with them the whole time. We made sweet movies which they loved and dressed them all up to have a red carpet night calling them in one by one on the microphone and everyone cheered and threw confetti and took pics.
they were so so excited and it was one of their favorite things Kaiizen has ever done for them. thats me dancing.. she grabed me and wouldnt let go for like 20 min. so cute! We taught at a school and had a carnival, more like chaos, but it was really fun. it was really hard to teach the kids about cells when we only had one spanish speaker who didnt know the vocab, haha.
Un dos tres bajo. while we were there we redid the nursury taking out the sick carpet and putting wood flooring in so the nannys would have to clean it up if the kids peed on the floor. It was cool to see how they needed us to just be their friends and play with them. they dont get a lot of attention so it was really neat to give them one on one time and single them out. I ate cow stomach, and fruits I had never seen before at this beautiful restraunt in the wine country. It was one of my favorite trips, but it was good to come back to america where we have showers and toilets you can put the toilet paper in. the first bathrooms we reached in cali were portipoties, I cursed them!!
I was supposed to fundraise 100 bucks but I was so busy with school to get around to it so mom paid for half and I paid for half, but if anybody feels so inclined to donate to the leesa and mom mexico fund that would be awesome!! it was a really great experience! the first time I had been out of the country! we were stopped by the military 3 times cause they were looking for drugs. big guns and not the kind you arm wrestle with! I was only gone for 4 days but it felt like 2 weeks with everything we did! 
that is me looking extreemly uncomfortable because i was about to order a queso taco of death so besides the disgusing food we had at this totally unsanitary tacoria and the fact that it was really cold it was a pretty outstanding experience!
