I don´t like rap music. Or anything in a related genre. Christian or secular. But I was watching some music videos of the rap genre in the restaurant I went to for lunch and most of them featured other artists. I´m currently being taught the importance of community, which is completely counterculture to the U.S. I would even go so far as to say it´s even counterculture to the current teachings of the U.S. church, with its focus on personal, individual walks with God. I think that´s not what our focus should be on. We should be doing life together. We should be walking with God together.
Mini sermonette aside, today was a good day.
I had my first test today. It went well I´m pretty sure. Also, I got an 8 out of 10 on my first presentation, so that´s nice.
After class and lunch we went to the National Theater. It was nice, but nothing to write home about (thus the blog....) Something interesting about San Jose is the CowParade they have. Apparently it´s a world wide thing (they have some in New York and in Buenos Aires). They´re not real cows. There are over 100 cow statues constructed and painted to emphasize different aspects of Costa Rican culture. Oh yes, I will put up pictures.
