I love doing an internship here at MIC! Its been quite an experience. NO I dont work at a construction site as it looks- On Tuesday I went to Cemex (a cement company) and we filmed a commercial! I got to see what goes down. We had to wear cool vests while we were on the site. 
Here I am holding the script for the commercial. So helpful.....I know

Normally we all work in an office doing diff marketing stuff for lots of companies. Like today I finished a project of wrapping butters (styrofoam with new package designs) for demos for an expo, and putting CDs into covers, and editing pictures from a catalog in photoshop. I love the people that work here- there are about 13 of us.
quick story- MOnday was hilarious! We heard a duck quacking outside so we went outside to investigate. We think it was a pet gone loose so we wanted to catch it before it got hit by a car. We tried feeding it water, tortillas, but he didnt want it so we gave up. Then we tried to catch him ( a few neighbors were out there too) SO imagine 10 adults running around after this duck that keeps escaping, just to try to save it. I wish i would have taken pictures cuz it was funny!
one more story- Wednesday I got to record and hear what i sound like in Spanish- haha. What a joke. I sound totally American but I am finally getting better and Ulysis helped me a ton with my pronunciation now that i can recognize what i need to work on. It was awesome!
Saturday night I went over to sister Cotrells and we watched Relief Society General Conference and had homemade bread and a delicious dinner. I am so thankful for my ward and the gospel in my life!
We played at a park close to our house with all the little kids from the neighborhood. Brandon and Booth played basketball and I played on the merry-go-round, see-saws, and swings.
They are the cutest little kids. We played a funny game where you have to kick off your shoe and see who can kick it the farthest. haha Kept us entertained for a while.
Today is Independence Day for Mexico! So last night we had a PARTY! It is so much more logical to party on the day before (aka morning of the holiday) in a way...becasue you usually get the 3rd and 4th of July off but stay up way late on the 4th and have to return back to work on the 5th of July. Here in mexico people get the 15th and 16th off (the 16th is Independence day) so everyone stays out late on the 15th. Anyways...enough about my stupid rambling theory. A little more about what the Mexican Traditions are- they have "El Grito" (the independence yell) and say VIVA MEXICO! to remember the day Mexico declared independence from Spain on Sept 16, 1810.

Then we went to a house party and had a BBQ, danced, laughed, and had fun! We went to the centro of San Pedro and there was a big clebration...like a fair type thing. Fun night! We danced to a band and acted like crazies running around. Then we had a sleepover at Dorthys and it was a blast! So you guys can stop worrying- I finally have a good group of mexican GIRLfriends that I adore!! (and I learn LOTS of spanish!!)
Dancing
I love these girls- Me, Jessica, Andrea! I met andrea on the first day of orientation cuz we are both studying marketing. i met all her best friends and their group reminds me of my best friends and Im so thankful for them. More good times to come...
