Today has been probably the most chill day that I’ve
had in all of my time in Nicaragua. The day started pretty late at like 8 AM
after trying to sleep ion a bit. I wasn’t really feeling all that well, so the
day seemed to be really long, but I still had a good time. The morning brought
forth a fantastic omelet with cheese and ham (always ham, not any other meat).
After that I pretty much just puttered around on the internet for a while
reading all about different projects to build (everything from alarms using 555
timers to robotic sensors and robot parts to coding contests and projects to
buy into online). This further reinforced how much I have to do. Also I started
watching Wanted with that dude from The Last King of Scotland and Angelina
Jolie in it. The movie was a good action movie (with a quite a high body count,
but it makes sense for that type of movie plot). In between watching that and
looking a bit at projects I was able to watch the soccer match between Italy
and Hungary. It was a long match that went into penalty kicks, but Italy ended
up winning the match by 1 penalty kick (3-2). This was to decide places 3 and 4
in the confederation cup. After this I read the first 70 or so pages of the
book The Fly in the Cathedral about the race to split an atom
(the first part is about Rutherford (who seemed to be quite the character) and
the other scientists at Cavendish labs in England). After that I started watching
the finals match between Brazil and Spain. Brazil, despite having less ball
control percentage during the match, was quite the team to watch as they ended
up scoring 3 solid goals against Spain (Spain wasn’t even able to score). The
match was also good because Spain got 2 yellows and a red card (the red card
was to eject Péque (Shakira’s husband) from the match for tripping the
Brazilian striker as he was breaking away for the goal). After this we’ve been
chilling after a solid dinner of grilled beef, B&R, a small salad and like
plantain thick chips and some tea. Looking forward to tomorrow and hoping that
we’ll have some more (any) work to do for the hospital (also tomorrow will be
the start of our inventory and meeting the director (and Alex will be visiting
as well)). Peace!
