Midservice Conference

I'm about to board the overnight bus to Viña del Mar with the Conce volunteers for the WorldTeach Duoc Midservice Conference. I can't believe that the first semester is almost over and we're already at midservice!
It'll be interesting to hear all the similarities and differences between host families, locations, Duoc sites etc. Plus, it's an "all-expense paid" weekend at the beach. Despite the fact I paid for it in advance, it's still nice to get reimbursed with cold, hard cash. :)

Side note: the past three days/nights it poured rain. all day. The street in front of my house was a small river and everyone was sprinting in and out of buildings. Umbrellas don't really help due to the wind, so you just have to wear as much water-proof clothing as possible.
Once again, I'm reminded of how incredibly convenient and comfortable (dry!) cars are. However, I'm getting pretty good at jumping puddles and dodging the buses as they careen by drenching anyone within 10 feet.
