Volcano and more fun times!!

Hola! Okay, so last FRIDAY= I went bungee jumping from 265 feet. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?? because honestly, i cant. I will admit it took me 20 minutes to gain my composure and jump but it was worth it. The initial jump is the hardest..I just couldnt wrap my brain around letting go and free falling but once I felt the rope pull my feet, i opened by eyes and was literally flying. how cool is that? Although, it did make me appreciative of my life and everything i have accomplished haha. A little deep, I guess. Anyways I will show anyone who wants to see the cd we received of our jumps. Saturday, we had to be at ULACIT at 6 AM. no idea how I got up..probably because we didnt go out and I got 10 hours of sleep but we left for Arenal. Once in Arenal, we went to La Fortuna..this beautiful waterfall. Believe me, the pictures are so unreal, its ridiculous and the water was freezing..we hiked down to the waterfall but that only meant more hiking to get back up to the top. I have to be honest all this hiking is killing me. Once we arrived at our hotel, all of us just stood outside taking pictures..the view was incredible.what kind of view right? Well, lets just say the Arenal Volcano was right outside our hotel...the most beautiful view ever. Cant wait to be able to post my pictures but for now just try to picture a giant volcano surrounded by clouds. ha. Sat we just hung out at the wet bar and pool and then Sunday, i went canyoning..more extreme sports haha. 5 drops and 4 waterfalls..again, the hardest part was letting go of the rope. Of course, we have harnesses but in a way we kinda let ourselves down. Now, I am back in San Jose and for mi clase de phoneticas i went to a school today to observe kids who have hearing or visual impairment. The kids were so cute and it was so interesting to see how they communicate. For those who cannot hear, they use sign language as their first language and spanish as their second. I almost wish i was staying for ELAP...This weekend, we are going to the beach..i cant wait. After Thursday, I am done with tests and can just relax. I am so excited that I got so much info out of Kristen today..i cannot wait for Casie to get here and us be able to travel. Love you guys..hope life is treating you all well.
Pura Vida
