Yesterday Michelle and I stopped at this place called the Cine Center. We were coming back from Villa Israel and we had to get off the 35 Trufi and catch the ¨M¨ up to la hacienda. So, we went in to go to the restroom and then I decided to splurge and buy an ice cream. As I ate my ice cream we walked out to this sidewalk where we waited for the right Trufi to come by. All of a sudden this man came up asking us for stuff in Spanish and we simply tried to ignore him. As we did he grabbed on to my ice cream, I tried to pull it away, but instead he held on to it and I just let him have it. He just walked off enjoying my ice cream that I before was totally digging! By the way, the ice cream is super delicious here! Not that I like to pass judgement, but I believe that he was extremely poor and either on some kind of drug (which is very common here) or drunk. Instead of fighting him...I am truly convinced that the Holy Spirit allowed me to let go of it and give it to him! Because... if you know Jaclyn, you know that you don´t mess with her and her sweets! He obviously needed and/or wanted it more than I did, so I am fine with that. It just took me by complete surprise, that is for sure! Never a dull moment, novĂ©?
Justin returned from Chapare, which took us by surprise because we thought he wasn´t suppose to come back until Thursday/Friday! Apparently, there is going to be another huge march/protest in town tomorrow for political reasons, so it was probably best he came back when he did since they can be some what dangerous! Tonight Michelle and I are headed to dinner with some of the students from the University that attend the church we go to. The ladies at the bible study invited us, so we figured it would be a great way to get to know people, work on Spanish, and fellowship! Plus, we are going to a very delicious restaurant. Instead of going all the way back up to la hacienda we are burning some time at the Internet cafe before we meet our soon to be friends for dinner! ¡Nos vemos!
