It started out with a cowboy section (not really sure why). 
It was followed by the bathingsuit part. 
......................and lastly the formal dress.
It started at 10ish-1030 and we didn't get out of there until 2am!!! I was so tired i just wanted to the same as my friend here...
So our friend didn't win but she did very well. Everyone thinks she definitely deserved top 5 over some of the other girls. The girl that one (royal blue) also had an advantage as she had participated in pagents before and was a lot older (and more experienced) than the other girls. Everyone knew she was going to win before-hand.
Today (15 de mayo) we had the 'desfile' or street-march where every organization represented. I walked with Consejo Juvenil. It was super hot, with tons of sun. Everyone was dying and there were plenty of people/groups the streets were lines with people watching the parade along with people on balconies, car tops, in the park, and then the tons of people marching.
This wednesday I am having my first meeting with a health group that we are creating out of students in the high school. I want to use this group to help plan and have events like HIV fairs to spread knowledge about the diseases and what not. Hopefully people show up.
I've been working a lot lately in medio ambiente (environment) planning a reforestation project where we are going to plant 500 trees in San Isidro. What is even better is that the students in all of the schools are going to be the ones planting and taking care of the trees. Its looking like I will be successful and I am very excited!! In one week we will be planting (21 de mayo).
Along with that I am also starting an ecoclub which will work in environmental issues learning about the environment and then we are going to all of the schools to educate and having events and what not. throwing trash on the grounds as well as burning trash are the two things i REALLY want to change here before i leave and they are also things that i believe i CAN change with a lot of education and what not. it is a huge and very gross problem here it will change the world if the people here just change those two habits alone and nothing else.
Dog Update:
It looks like every blog until I give them away there will be a dog picture because theyre just so adorable!! theyre about 3 weeks old now and theyre getting so big. Apparently a dog can have a litter with different dads if she was with many different ones and since she is a street dog (and a machona) it wasn't that easy to keep her or the other dogs away and it is definitely apparent with some of the pups that they come from different dads. They're all so adorable anyway. I couldn't help but give some of them names already...
The mama with her babies. From right to left: Yogi--hes the biggest one and has TONS of hair (different dad than the rest) and is SUPER BLACK. hes one of the most guapos. I call him Yogi cuz he reminds me of a big bear. The white one under the mom's arm is my favorite. She is all white with a gray shadowed eye. She is super adorable and I am strategically planning in my head a way to keep her (leyla doesnt want any dogs in the house). I call her luna. Then there are two other short-haired black ones that dont have names. The next one is all white with a black shadowed eye and opposite ear. he is also one of the most adorable. I call him principe (prince). Then comes the cafecita. I'm pretty sure her dad is the pastor aleman that is my dogs boyfriend. shes the only one that looks like that. some of the other ones (like vaquerito the last one) have a little brown in them which is super random and i have no idea where it comes from. The next one is spotted and resembled his father exactly which is a chico that always hangs around here (Papito). I'm pretty sure hes the most gordo of all of them..always eating. The last one is vaquerito who reminds me a little of a cow (vaca) because of his markings. vaquerito is cowboy. 
Adriano and them were born on the same day (27th) so they will complete months together. When they have one month he will have 8. Hes getting so big!!
La cafecita y 2 negritas. They still sleep in a little ball always with another one.
YOGI!!!!,..
PRINCIPE!!! QUE PRECIOSO! ...
VAQUERITO!
...
PAPITO. Papito always howls! I don't know if its in his genes or something but whenever theyre crying for food from the mama hes always like auuuuuuuuuuuuu.
...
LUNA. All of their eyes and ears are opened and theyre walking a lot more now and starting to play with eachother. I cant wait until they start running around!!
