A Memorable Night

About three weeks ago (yeah havent wrote in my blog for awhile) i had quite a memorable experience...After not being able to eat dinner because my stomach was full of gas (sign of impending diarrhea) I went to the bathroom with the intention of relieving the over-exploding feeling in my stomach. After being satisfied with what came out I thought I was in the clear for the night. Oh how wrong was I...After sleeping for about 5 hours I woke up with a feeling that I needed to take a piss, however in a matter of seconds it changed to a sensation, which i couldn´t have dsecribed until now. Although I have been close to pooping my pants in Peru (one time being on a bus trip from La Agraria in Lima back to the training center in Chaclacayo) this night was a BARN-BURNER which forced me to run with my pants partially down, preventing any possibility of joining the 70 percent club (70% of PC Peru volunteers poop their pants in their 2 year experience). Lets just say the prairie dogs were trying to find a new home! Thankfully I reached my smelly ass latrine before letting the dogs out...Once reaching the porcelain or in this case 3rd world latrine, God all I could do was laugh and count my blessings. While this would not be the only trip to the bathroom that I took that night, it would be and will be the closest near icky situaton that I have had to deal with...

On another note (and I am sorry that I continue to write bathroom stories) since arriving in Sicchez, following a short trip to Piura, I have been quite restless. Although watching the Office and reading multiple books (I have finished two books of 300+ pages in a week) has taken up time I have realized that next year during vacaciones utiles (summer vacation) I will definitely make a more concerted effort to make plans in the form of history and cine classes...
