If we don't change, we don't grow.. If we don't grow, we aren't really living

Listening Alejandro Fernandez and drinking tequila while waiting friends to pick us up.. its friday night. An hour ago I received beautiful message of appreciation from a person that was a guest in club where I worked this summer.. got really emocinal about it.  And more than ever I'm sure that no matter what you do you should do it with passion. Being a waitress, being a teacher, cooking a lunch or simply listening someone always give one hundred percent of yourself in thing you do or don't do it at all. 

p.s. thank you for nice memories Daniel :))

After a great triumpf over Panama Mexico lost from Costa Rica but US won in other match which means Mexico still have chance for participation in World Cup in Brazil.. and I have no idea why I'm writing about football, I was never a fan of it.. however I had a great time while watching the matches :)) Things are changing, life is changing, we are different.. If someone told me few months ago that I will enjoy in drinking beer with tomato juice,salt and salsa inglesa I would tell it's crazy :D there are some great things about Mexico and one of them is that men are still gentlemens.. there is no way they will allow you to carry something heavy and they are still opening the doors and let ladys to enter a room first.. like it a lot :))

And speaking about being a teacher .. if someone told me that I will teach at some point of my life I would tell it's never going to happen.. honestly, I always thought teachers are most boring persons on the world and if I'll ever have to teach that will mean that my life is the equally mediocre and  boring as their. Even when I applied for project, I wasn't really aware what Im going to do in Mexico. And because of that attitude my change is even more unbelievable. I enjoy in every second I spend with students.. my students :)) Whatever I write it's not enough to describe how amazing they are and how they make me feel.. last week one student invited me and Elena at her home. Her mother prepared us a delicious mexican dinner, we met her father and sister..and little nephew.. we were just walking around enjoying every moment. Thinking about happiness..what is necessary to make other person happy? Not much: a smile, a nice word, a hug.. giving yourself without expecting something in return-think that's the key. Too often we are doing things because we expect we'll get something in return, and if that doesn't happen we end dissapointed. Relationships, friendships, families,life.. our actions motiveted by things we expect to get instead of simply giving and enjoying in fact we made someone happy. Sometimes think that we forget how simple life is. 

Speaking about how great my students are, here are some pictures of typical mexican food they brought me on class.. how not to love them :))

Week finished with beautiful weekend in Leon with Sara, her family and friend Arturo. Last year Sara was on exchange in Croatia in my parent's house so we became sisters :)) It's amazing how in July we were all in my small city Nin in Croatia, celebrating my brother's comeback from Chihuahua and Sara's last days in Croatia.. and now, three months later I met her again, but in Mexico :)

And while finishing this post Elena is getting ready for "salsa night".. we still didn't find dancing shoes, maybe this weekend in Guanajuato ;))
