¿Hombre de Piano?

So yesterday I was sitting in my livingroom studying and I heard one of my neighbors blasting "Piano Man" in Spanish. It was awesome. Some other notable songs in Spanish "Total Eclipse of The Heart," "Careless Whisper," and Beyonce's "Irreplacable." Today I was having lunch and I heard the classic Swayzee hit "She's Like The Wind." I know I've said it before and I am sure I will say it again but I love Nicaraguans' taste in music. I am also currently loving the Super Mario Brothers/Tetris tournaments that are taking place in my house. My little sister plays so much that I have dubbed her Super Maria. It is pretty crazy playing those old games the Mario music really brings up all kinds of memories. It is amazing how much of a part of my childhood that game was. Its funny too, I never imagined that Super Mario brothers would be a part of my daily life as a Peace Corps Trainee.
Speaking of training, it is moving right along. The last few sessions have actually been really helpful and focused on working with counterpart (my biggest fear) and lesson planning. The lesson planning stuff is always fun because you get to hear new ideas for lesson plans and activities. I am not really worried about that stuff because I am pretty creative when it comes to planning lessons and making up games but it is always good to learn more. The counterpart thing is what I thinkI am most worried about. I know I am a good teacher on my own, but group work and sharing responsibility has never been my strong point, although I think I have improved alot. With my partner in the youth group it has been great. I think we really compliment each other and I like working with her. But the whole working with someone I don't know who may have totally different ideas about teaching than I do is a little daunting. But que sera sera I guess. That is my new phiolosphy on things here. I was really stressed out about the whole site assignment thing for a few days but now I realize that it is a waste of my precious energy to even speculate about it. I believe that everything will work out how it is meant to work out and that I will love my site no matter what. But ask me again in two weeks.
