Seeing that we're almost done with school, I wanted to remember some of the crazy things we've experienced while living in Puerto Rico. One of those things is Matthew's old Optometry school...yeah, it's that bad. When Matthew first arrived with his dad to look for an apartment/furniture and check out the school he would be attending for the next 4 years, he couldn't believe what he saw. It was so bad that he passed by it a few times and totally missed it. Boy were we ever grateful that they built the new campus in Bayamon, but the first two and a half years were dreadfully spent at this tiny, rundown, "optometry school". Things usually look worse in pictures, but the school actually looks better in these pictures.
This was their cafeteria! Luckily Matthew never touched the food, he said he saw cockroaches in there.
This is one of only two spots where the students could "hang out" during breaks and lunches on campus.
...and this is a distant picture of his new school, so much better in every way possible. I'll have to take more pictures of this new building and add them later.
