One of our weaknesses included not gaining enough attention on social media, which was unexpected. This made some group members think that their hard work was not being noticed, which was discouraging. We collaborated with the decorations department, which gave us a chance to post pictures and GIFs on social media more often. A threat we faced was the changes that were made in dates or timings after the posters and social media posts were made.

One scenario we anticipated was sudden changes being made to dates of ticket sales or timings of the event. The plan we had incase of such a scenario was saving a template of the posters we made so the people responsible

Hearing their giggles I turned and looked up at them before responding with one of the only phrases I knew of the spanish language, “hola” “¿cómo estás?” This caused a panic and they quickly disappeared, laughing to themselves and speaking in a language I had only begun to understand. A few seconds later I could feel their eyes staring down at me again, I quickly shot my head around to stare at them again, this caused them to dart away even quicker before being followed by a uproar of giggles. This experience was something I had grew quite accustomed to in my short time in Guatemala.…
