Another day in Tac Tic (Alexis)

Hola, gringos! That's what we've been hearing all day. Gringo is slang for a white person. Talissa would like to give a big "HOLA!" because she is sitting right here. Today, 11A went to Chi'xim. (Shi-Sheem) Chi'xim, is the Myan god of corn.
Sam just screamed at the top of her lungs because Josh dangled a green balloon in her face. She thought it was a snake. Hence the screaming. We haven't seen any real ones yet, but we have encountered cockroaches.
Anyways, in Chi'xim, we saw a strange blend of religions- Myan, Catholic, and some witchcraft. There was a ceremony going on with some people burning offerings of tobacco and alcohol to the gods. Needless to say, it was a very unpleasant smell. Then we went into the temple and heard a little more of what they believe from Les.
11B was at the sinkhole while we were in Chi'xim, they all said that it was a really good experience, but wouldn't say much more. Chandler said we should experience it for ourselves. Chandler and Ali have food babies. They also say "Hola!" (A food baby is when you've eaten so much you look a bit pregnant).
Finally, 11A went to children's ministry. I painted hands, so did Jacques, and Stephanie. Others did crafts, made balloon animals and played games. The ballon animals were VERY popular, so was my 'rosa' design. 11B did manual labour, digging and hauling dirt. Jenna Kim says "HI!" Seems that many people do...
Right now, my class is about to walk out the door to play soccer with some youth. Should be MUCHO fun.
ADIOS!
