1. Last night my friends, Erica & Jorge, got married in Valladolid. Erica teaches English and French at UNO, and she just started this fall as well, so as long as I´ve known her, she´s been planning this wedding! Her family came from Montreal and Jorge´s from Mexico City. Everything was beautiful and we had a great night. There were piña coladas, mariachis, and a beautiful and delicious cake made by some of the Gastronomy students at UNO. Erica looked gorgeous and Jorge sang to her backed by the mariachis. Congratulations, you two!!
2. I´ll be developing this Hospitality English course over the next week and then it will start on Monday Oct. 26. It´s going to be four weeks long with 90 minute classes everyday. Each week, I´ll meet with different groups of the hotel´s staff to work on basic communication skills and pragmatics in the hospitality industry. It is a really exciting challenge and I´m looking forward to the chance to gain experience in English for Specific Purposes and to teach in an non-traditional "classroom."
3. Yesterday I had to kill a scorpion that was on my bathroom ceiling and the other night, I avoided a confrontation with a tarantula as I was leaving campus. The scorpion is not featured in the photo below, but you can imagine.....
4. After a long, arduous week, I´m going to Cancun tomorrow for a bit of R & R!
