Aside from the ad Yahoo served up this morning with my email (see below), today got off to a decent start. Managed to get to the printer in time to run off some not-terrible prints for class, and celebrated [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[HALLMARK ATHENS STUDENT HOUSING, LLC, PLAINTIFF: I&#8217;ve been served with an eviction notice for failure to pay rent. I don&#8217;t have time to fully explain how pissed off I am, but here&#8217;s a summary: rent is due on the 1st of the month (and not &#8220;before&#8221;, either).

I&#8217;m not still in Peru. For various reasons I stopped updating the journal (obviously) but not traveling and moving around. After leaving Cajamarca we flew via Lima to Cuzco and stayed in that area for several days exploring the sights and countryside. I made some amazing [...]]]></description>

Location:
Cajamarca, Peru




























Today is our last day working in the Centro Medico &#8220;Padre Luis Tezza&#8221; in Cajamarca. Despite the fact that we were going to do some amazing sightseeing in the coming days, I don&#8217;t think any of us wanted to stop working  and leave the clinic.
The medical folks had a lot of patients, so it [...]]]></description>
