Fun with Onomatopoeia

Since the arrival of October, it’s been QUITE cold here at NPH. Wait a minute. I LIVE IN GUATEMALA. Shouldn’t it just be hot hot hot??? False. I may live in Guatemala, but I also live in the MOUNTAINS of Guatemala. Aka – It’s cold.

Last night I went to my section to hang out with my girls. One of them asked me for help washing dishes so we headed outside to the pilas (sinks) where I proceeded to say “BRRRRRRRRR” about 800 times. EVERY time – it made her giggle. I guess I would find it funny too to see a foreigner shivering up and down and saying a made-up word I had never heard before.
