Jessica Wendt to Mexico (get it? Stories of my exciting travels, teaching english in Mexico, and a few incredibly mundane details of my little life. Wednesday, February 28, 2007. Some Things that Happened. I am listening to Shakira. A police officer just walked by with a machine gun. A man just rode by on a bike cart filled with gallons of water. I saw a 2 inch cockroach in my sink two nights ago. I am certain it still lives somewhere in the bathroom, although I have no proof. Posted by Jessica @ 10:40 AM.

Well, we're its halloween and we're wearing orange t-shirts. As for Halloween here, it is celebrated with about the same enthusiasm as St. Patricks Day or Cinco de Mayo is in the US- a select group goes to bars as an excuse to celebrate, but I think the festivities are pretty limited. Thanks to all of you again for caring about me!

Jessica Wendt to Mexico (get it? Stories of my exciting travels, teaching english in Mexico, and a few incredibly mundane details of my little life. Friday, July 27, 2007. Beautiful Rosa and the Art School. Yesterday I made a comment that I would be volunteering at a place called vientos culturales (VC), but that I wasn`t sure how it would go. I also would like to reiterate that I said I don`t believe in first impressions. Then Sara, the american, came in and asked, `jessica, do you want to meet rosita?

This is Doña Irene, the lady who sold coca in town, a great friend and ...

carrie gold: November 2007

Blue Ridge Mountains, NC. Not the view from my apartment). This is the time you'd like to stay. Not a leaf stirs. There is no sound. The fireflies lift light from the ground. You've shed the vanities of when. And how and why, for now. And then. The phone rings. You are called away. Wendell Berry, Given. It has been decided. In January I will move to Montreal. There I will wear snow boots, take public transporation, learn French, and get my TESL certificate. HOW TO BE A POET. Make a place to sit down.

March in Montreal, Bluberries. Basketball was invented in Canada. (Though the original plan apparently didn't include a hole at the bottom of the basket.) But hockey was invented right here in Montreal, and the Habs are the city's pride. My pride is having done very little complaining about the weather since I've arrived. It's true! I will pause here to tell a story of how last week I understood numbers in. M if he spoke English. There was smoke on the tracks, it appeared, and "it could be five minut...
