I've had a lot of free time lately. What have I been doing?
Catching up on sleep, checking out things that are close by (Tepotzotlán, la Condesa, etc), and wondering what to do next.
I find myself in a rather difficult position. I've already been accepted as a new teacher by two different schools. At this point I'm just waiting on them to send me the schedule for classes I'll be teaching, and that is now turning into a three week waiting game.
In the meantime, I'm looking into ways to get myself situated here. I'm sort of trapped in a bureaucratic nightmare when it comes to visas, permits, and trying to open a bank account, and now that I have time I'm doing what I can to get this mess organized.
If you'll kindly look back to the first few posts, you'll see that before I came to Mexico, I had dreams of learning Nahuatl, getting involved with humanitarian work, and making myself a better person all-around. While this has been on my mind, it was pushed to the back of my thoughts due to a never-ending work week. Now that I have time, I might as well establish some of these ideas.
Goals:
1) Learn Nahuatl
2) Begin the legwork for starting grad school
3) Begin writing this book...(more about the idea later)
I have figured out that my first love is learning, and now I have to keep going with that.
On an unrelated note, I'm sorry for being so behind on posts. I still have no computer, so I bum one whenever I get the chance to update.
I'm off for now.
Love, always,
-Buster
