Under Construction

Costa Rica.
I'm here. After a long redeye flight and a long lay over in Houston, I'm here.
Honestly, I was quite stressed and busy in trying to pack, store, and do last minute things that I needed to do before I left California. Despite the pressure, I somehow managed to talk to and be with friends and family that I wanted to see or hear their voice all before I departed... it all worked out.
Actually getting into San Jose, I was quickly reminded of the poor service and communication that people give you here and in most of Latin America. Idk. For some reason a lot of people here like to play the know-it-all when they just waste your time with b.s. I just had a frustrating experience with one of my checked bags that ended up missing for a while- I got it a day later so no worries.
As far as my job here goes, Strong Missions is now working away from the city of San Jose and is in a small town community that is closer to the rural agricultural area near the city. It's much more safer, quieter, and calm than the city. We are working with a family of 4 people on a project to construct a community playground area for the children and people of the community- it will be a nice change from the weed-filled hillside that was there before.
Today was the first day of work. I forgot how hard people here- cuz' I'm poop tired. haha!
More details about the work projects and stuff that I'm up to when I am able to.
Under construction is this road.
Wanting to speed at 85- I must go slower than I'd like and roll with the flow. I am where I'm at, with the people I'm with, and at this specific time for a reason that I will understand better one day; that is a much as I know. I would wish to have better control of my circumstances- as in where and who I'm able to see and be closer with- but not right now. Under construction is my road. I guess I have to wait and see how this will all turn out to be.
Random Lady GaGa songs and songs from Across The Universe had been filling my head all day today.
Not sure what that means...lol!
cherry cherry boom boom;)
PEACE
