Newssssss!!!

This is going to be a super short post because I've been on this computer more today than I have in my entire 5 months living here. I've been working on my Reconnect presentation for next week in Tumbaco and have been browsing around online which I never EVER do. It was nice for a while but now my eyes are just killing me and I need to shut this machine off and store it away in my closet for it to collect dust for a few weeks. Ugh.

Anyway, things have been good for the most part. I went to Chone and Bahia last week for the feriado (national holiday). The holiday here was El Dia de los Difuntos (it's like Day of the Dead, I'm sure most of you have heard of that...) and the whole country basically shuts down and travels/parties/celebrates for 3 week days and then, of course, the weekend. That left 5 wonderful days for me to travel all over tarnation and spend time with Anna, my bestest friend!!! We had SOOO many adventures but I'm too exhausted to recount all of them. I do have a super detailed journal that I'm keeping, though, also, so maybe someday when I'm looking for things to talk about I can retell all of our adventures. Well at least some of them...hehehe. Heheehe...ok...moving on...

Anyway, the point of this post (It does have a point! I promise!) is to let all of you know that I have a PHOTO PAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since I don't have facebook anymore I've decided to start a photo-sharing website since no one knows what's going on in my life, where I live, where I go, what I do, etc. That is, in fact, one thing I miss about facebook. The sharing of photos and experiences. But, trust me, facebook-less life has been beautiful. Beautiful, beautiful. I've decided to use photobucket.com to share my pics because it has few restrictions and limits of album size, amounts of photos, etc.

The link to my page is: www.photobucket.com/sheburnsbright

(Yes, it's like my name for this blog!!! I'm so clever...have I ever told you guys what that means, anyway? Maybe some other time I'll contar the story...hehe)

I have only uploaded 1 album to the site but it's pretty cool. It's pics from my first weeks in Ecuador and although I already uploaded some of them onto facebook I wanted to add them to the photobucket to "start from scratch" and whatnot. I'll SLOWLY but SURELY be uploading pics to new albums and whatnot. I have TONS AND LOAD of pics to add, but please be patient. I don't get online a lot and when I do the internet is slow which doesn't make for good photo uploading situations. The photo page is public so share it with your friends (okay, maybe when I get cooler pics on it??...)...you can also comment on the pics sort of like facebook so please do!!!...oh, and Peace Corps Omni 10ers...please share this page with our fellow PCV's, would you? There are some great pics of you guys in the album and, as I said, more pics will be coming eventually. Keep your eyes peeled.

I hope you enjoy the pics! Please e-mail me (everlys1561@gmail.com) with questions, comments, encouragement, etc.

MUCH love from Ecuador.

Besos xoxo
