Jovens Aprendizes (da tlk wit the teens)

Da tlk wit the teens 2day was kinda kool. Even wit the language barrier we managed to get sum info into thier heads that we arent wht the media portrays us being like. We arent the stereotypical lazy potato that sits infront of the TV and lets life pass em rite by. We gave Coppy a work out 2day. we really participated and they participated; it felt good to have a mature adult convo wit a group of students from another country and show them how WE are not how AMERICANS are. i think we really gave them the main idea the not all americans are the same, matter fact alot of humans arent alike. we also took alot of knowledge from this convo; they really think that we agree wit out government, the we are the bad guys. i liked how we pointed out the fact that we have similar conflicts in both of our countries just the one is worse than the other. the lady next to damison also tlked about immigrants and how its all a cycle that makes the world go around. after this i doubt they think the same way as they did b4 we came in.

I loved the lil dance session we had. It came to mind the essay i did for my EIL application wit the question...is music a universal language. eventhough we dont have much experience in samba(xcept 4 vika n erica who b gettin it.lol. ) or capoeira we were able to bond a bit wit them.
i really wanna learn fogo. i think ill b good @ it since i knoe bachata.

PS. Grrr Coppy. u put me on the spot. i was all xtra nervous n wht not. lol.
