Goodbye El Salvador, I never really got to know you.

January departure for El Salvador has been cancelled due to rising security concerns. I have to admit that I was a little concerned with all that I have been hearing about El Salvador lately but just kept thinking that if it was really dangerous then the Peace Corps wouldn't be sending us there. Well, I guess it has gotten to that point. It is a bit of a bummer since it has gotten so close to the departure date and I have already begun my goodbyes... "Just kidding everyone!" We are to expect the unexpected with the Peace Corps and since I went in with that mindset I am not devastated by this decision. I can make myself useful wherever I am sent, I am just crossing my fingers that I still get to improve my spanish wherever that is. Plus, I love pupusas too much and probably would have gained 30 pounds there anyway.
