Homework in Cuernavaca!?!



Fresh off her first full week of classes at Cuahnahuac Language Institute in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico, Lisa reports that she's been doing multiple hours of homework each night. All that work seems to be more a function of her own determination to master the grammatical nuance of Spanish than of any requirement imposed by her instructors. In true Lisa style, she's working harder than her teachers likely expect and learning a great deal more than they likely anticipate in three weeks' time. All her days have been chock-full. Weekdays she's in class from 8-1, with various afternoon activities at school and mealtimes filling up much of the rest of the day. Weekends she's on one of the seven school excursions that her scholarship is funding. So far she's been to Mexico City, a set of natural springs, an Aztec pyramid site, and somewhere else today about which I haven't heard yet. She's been taking pictures, which may or may not be posted on this site soon...depends on internet availability. She somehow managed to upload the above photo through sheer willpower. Loading photos takes a long time on dial-up internet!
