Lauren in Nicaragua!: September 2008
http://laureninnicaragua.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 24, 2008. Yesterday one of my high school students asked if the United States is at war with Venezuela. Also, I recently celebrated my one year anniversary in Nicaragua, wow how time flies. I have many a reflection to share, though as we all know I am terrible at updating this thing.

Lauren in Nicaragua!: February 2009
http://laureninnicaragua.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2009. And on the plane. Three months of travel coming to an end. I´ve been from Nica to NYC and around the States to Mexico and Guatemala and now I´ll soon be heading home to Cusmapa. In the states I saw many old friends some that I had not seen in years, and family when we got together to see my little sister graduate from UNLV (! You mean, dictator? And now Chavez can be president for life. Do you think Ortega would like the same? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). You mean, dictator?

Lauren in Nicaragua!: July 2008
http://laureninnicaragua.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2008. So I went to Mexico. And living Mexico has all the magic that the Mexico of my dreams has. The smells, the sounds, the colors, the food! I love it there. Though, as much as I do love it, when I was there I missed Cusmapa. I don't think anywhere, no matter how magical, contains the magic that Cusmapa does for me. This place is my home, and how lucky I am to be able to say so! And the art of Mexico! I miss art when I am here in Nicaragua. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Lauren in Nicaragua!: June 2008
http://laureninnicaragua.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 18, 2008. We're Really Shaking it Up. In Casa los Mangos we recently hosted the first, of what will hopefully be many, Fiesta de Mujeres Libres. Its a small group of women, half Nica, half American, that get together and have drinks, snacks and talk, dance, have fun. We made a big sign declaring: "Arriba las Mujeres del Mundo! Arriba todo el mundo! Or, "Arriba las mujeres del mundo? Either way, it's out there. And other banners of the like. Ooooooo what fun and ruckus! Monday, June 9, 2008.

Lauren in Nicaragua!: September 2007
http://laureninnicaragua.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 29, 2007. Notes on Nicaraguan spanish, which i can´t understand at all. The letter S is not really utilized, its not a lisp but more of a muffle. The last sound of many words is completely dropped off, in particular if it is an S sound, this is particularly annoying to me since the entire meaning of verbs lies in the last sound. In nicaragua they use VOS for Tu, and when they do they conjugate the verb differently, its weird. Also, everyone mumbles. Monday, September 24, 2007. So it g...
