Today was my brother Tyler’s birthday, so I woke up and wished him a happy birthday on Facebook.  During my first class period, I tried to get the kids to play the volleyball review game, but it turned into a little bit of a chaotic mess, which was unfortunate.  During the day, we did all kinds of grading and other administrative stuff before the 10^th Grade class finished up Last of the Mohicans.  After school, we sat in extremely heavy traffic on the bus.  It took us a full hour to go the five miles to get home.  When we did finally get home, I walked over to the start of the onion festival that was starting in Santa Ana this week.  There were a lot of onions there and they also had people carving chunks of wood with chainsaws.  After that, I FaceTimed with Tyler.  That was the first time I had talked to him since I’ve left, so it was good to catch up.  After a dinner of spaghetti, I went with Zoe, Kelsey, and Sarah to meet up with Neena and her cousin who just got into town at a rooftop bar in Escazu.  The bar had a great view and it was a lot of fun!  Unfortunately, I got home a little bit past my bedtime, so I was ready to hit the hay.
