Preface

This entry is a bit longer because it consists of two weeks, but I hope it will entertain and enrich. I would also like to warn you that at some point there are rather graphic images. I thought of leaving them out, but this is reality and the step before you eat fried calamari, that we rarely think about.

In The Water

I drop into a blue abyss. I inhale 1, 2, 3, 4, and exhale 1,2,3,4. My breath so easily taken for granted on land is suddenly a miracle. I sink lower in a lateral position, feeling the pressure in my ears. I press my nose and gently blow out to equalize. The sea seizes my weight and I slip into a horizontal frame with my fingers on my elbows to stabilize myself. My breath continues with a sound so unique, you can only recognize it as a scuba diver or a Darth Vader fan. I customarily have a minute of panic because of the loss of my noses function and obvious danger I face in that moment. I anticipate, validate, and breathe. The feeling dissipates and for the next 40 minutes I live in the now and worry of nothing. I simply marvel at my surroundings, understanding how special it is to see these creatures alive. I hover over a giant sting ray camouflaged below me, and spy a Maury eel peek its head from its coral reef palace. The fish are all different, some in swarms of silver, and others colorful and gliding by in search of their next meal. The sand, which seems so dead on land, is full of life.

My guide gives me the thumbs up, and I know it is time to ascend. Slowly, I swish my fins back and forth, propelling my body to the surface. I spend a quick 3 minutes soaking up my last few glimpses, and allowing my body to adjust to the nitrogen levels and pressure. My computer flashes and beeps, telling me I can return to the sky above. I give 2 powerful kicks, and as my head breaks the seal I am immeadilty transported to reality. I am diving off the coast of Ecuador at a location called Isla de la Plata in 76 degree water in the middle of January. 

It was a whirlwind week that began on Saturday morning at 530. I uber to the bus with my classmates and together we traveled 12 hours. We winded down the Andes, through the cloud forest, and into endless miles of banana plantations.

We rolled through massive concrete jungles like Guayaquil and bounced down rough dirt roads in small towns like Babahoyo, where we stopped for lunch. At sunset we finally arrived to Santa Elena and ran straight for the beach. After a quick dip, the locals warned us that “sharp creatures” come out after dark so we scurried back for showers, some much needed food, and finally, some sleep. 

I awoke every morning at 630 to head to the beach for some yoga and a morning swim. In this insane week of research, adventure, and fellowship, this special time in the morning kept me sane. 

The majority of my day consisted of surveying the rocky intertidal zone of Ecuadors coast. This is the part of the beach that is submerged under water according to the tide schedule. We worked at low tide, so the times were different every day. My job in this experiment was to place quadrants in the high zone (splash zone and the least biodiverse) and survey the life I found. This mostly consisted of tiny periwinkle snails and filamentous green algae. However, every once in a while, I would catch sight of a unique piece of nature. The cool dudes below seemed to watch me work and were just as stunned and fascinated by me as I was to them. 

The Ecuadorian sun is draining, and after every survey we always spent a couple hours relaxing at lunch.

Everyday, sometimes 2 or 3 times a day, we took advantage of the powerful waves and played like little mermaids. We visited a different beach everyday to survey, but had 2 separate hotels throughout our time, to return to at night. The second of which was located in a calm surfing town called Ayampe.

The streets are littered with yoga retreats and little cafes. Our hotel was one of pure luxury, in my mind. We may have had to sleep under mosquito nets with no AC, and take quick, cold showers, but to me, the view was all worth it. 

Two excursions during our day stuck out to me the most, one of death and another of life. We visited a typical fishing market. Some were intrigued by the endless barrels of creatures they call delicious. 

However, I was overcome with a sadness. This week connected me to the earth on a spiritual level, and looking around it was as if I was viewing rows of caskets of my fellow brothers and sisters. You may not understand this, and thats okay. However, the reason I study the environment is because I do not see a difference in value between a humans life and a sharks. I see us both as interwoven pieces of this planet and creations of the divine. This is so clear to me when I have experiences like I did underwater. On our last day, we rode an hour and a half to Isla de la Plata. We dove twice, soaking up the sun and snacks on our breaks in between. As we sliced through the waves on the way back, they rocked me to sleep and I awoke when we stopped at the dock. 

We spent our last evening compiling data, while listening to the spiritual ceremony a group of visitors were completing outside. They drink a psychoactive plant called Ayauscha to begin and throughout the night they dance, howl, and meditate. It was truly beautiful to witness, even for the short time I watched. The next morning we pilled back into our bus to make the 12 hour trek back to Quito, where I again ubered home and collapsed into my bed. 

The following week my group and I gathered our research question, wrote a paper, and presented our findings. I linked this below if you’re a science nerd like me, and find this interesting. On Friday, we finished this class, and sat in orientations for our next class and adventure.

I spent my Saturday on a spontaneous trip to the teleferico. We rode cable cars to a stunning view overlooking Quito and the volcanoes that surround it. Lastly, I connected with my roots and hopped on a horse. This special piece of home rejuvenated me from the harsh week I had endured, and left me ready for the next. 

The differences between Ecuador and the States were highlighted to me through the election process that commenced on Sunday. Ecuador has around 270 political parties, and by law you are required to vote. They also have the Ley Seca, which occurs from Friday to Sunday, in which drinking alcohol is not allowed and punishable by a 200 dollar fine. Ballots are filled out on paper, but mailing in is not an option. Families travel all across the country to their place of birth, if they have not gone through the process of changing their home voting station. This process enlightened me to the different government styles besides the US. Neither is right or wrong, just different. 

These last two weeks have challenged and enriched me. I move onward with a heart full of gratitude and a head full of new knowledge.  

With Love From Ecuador, 

Emily Sikora

Stefan: Well, I know that you and Elena bonded, and I know that she cares about you, and, uh, I know that you care about her

Damon: Well, this is going in an interesting direction

Stefan: I'm just concerned about Elena being hurt … She considers you a friend

Damon: Same here. Elena's a very good friend. Actually, she might qualify as my only friend

Stefan: So, at the risk of sounding like a, uh, like a jealous boyfriend-

Damon: Oh, there's no risk … you do

Stefan: History will not be repeating itself … Where Elena's concerned … do you understand what I'm saying?

Damon: … sure

Stefan: Do you … understand?

Damon: Hey, whatever you say, man. I mean, honestly, we're just friends. And as her friend, I wasn't looking forward to telling her the truth, anyway. So, I'll let you do it

Stefan: What truth?

Damon: About John. 'Cause I know you guys don't like to keep secrets from each other

Stefan: What are you talking about?

Damon: Am I the only one around here who has the ability to put two and two together? Isobel, hello? … She dated John when she was 15. She gets pregnant, and ends up t the doctors office of John's brother. Now, what do you think John's role is in all of this, huh> I mean, go ahead, think about it. I'll wait … you get it? you there yet? Hmm?

Stefan: So, you think that John is Elena's brother?

Damon: Ding ding ding!

Stefan: What proof do you have?

Damon: I don't need any proof. That's a DNA test for John, Elena, and Maury Povich to deal with. But I know how well you deal with these big bombshells, so … sleep tight

Damon: Oh, and when you do tell Elena, and she needs a friend to talk to about anything … I'm here for her

Suceveanca Anca Polocoșer, de bază în lotul național al României

New Post has been published on https://reporterliber.ro/suceveanca-anca-polocoser-de-baza-in-lotul-national-al-romaniei/

Suceveanca Anca Polocoșer, de bază în lotul național al României

Echipa naţională de handbal feminin a României va efectua săptămâna viitoare un stagiu de pregătire în vederea participării la turneul preolimpic din Muntenegru în absenţa selecţionerului Adrian Vasile, depistat pozitiv la coronavirus.

„Naţionala feminină de handbal intră pe ultima sută de metri a pregătirilor pentru turneul preolimpic din luna martie. Fără antrenorul Adi Vasile, depistat pozitiv cu coronavirus, Cristina Neagu şi celelalte componente ale lotului vor efectua săptămâna viitoare un stagiu de pregătire de patru zile, la Bucureşti, sub comanda secundului norvegian Bent Dahl”.

Chiar dacă nu va fi prezent alături de echipă, selecţionerul Adrian Vasile a stabilit cu staff-ul său cum se va desfăşura stagiul de pregătire de la Bucureşti.

„Este foarte importantă această perioadă de pregătire. Fiecare zi pe care o vor petrece împreună va fi de folos. Vor fi patru zile în care ne vom concentra pe noi, dar vom analiza şi adversarele din turneul preolimpic şi ne vom pregăti împotriva atuurilor pe care cele trei echipe le au. De la prima acţiune pe care am avut-o, fetele au studiat materialele pe care le-au primit şi acum vom pune în practică ceea ce am văzut în materialele respective”, a spus Adrian Vasile.

„Nu este cea mai normală situaţie, pentru că antrenorul nu poate fi prezent la această acţiune, dar deja am înţeles cu toţii că perioada în care suntem trebuie să ne facă să ne adaptăm, aşa că am mare încredere în fete şi în staff, că vor face ca lucrurile să meargă bine. În momente dificile oamenii au resurse nebănuite de putere, energie, spirit şi în toate lucrurile acestea stă esenţa unei echipe. După această perioadă va urma o analiză a ultimei luni, apoi vom vedea ce mai avem de corectat şi de remediat în perspectiva turneului preolimpic”, a adăugat antrenorul. Din selecționata României nu lipsește suceveanca Anca Polocoșer, jucătoare de bază în defensivă, dar care poate evolua la nevoie și pe partea de atac.

Lotul României pentru acţiunea din 23-27 februarie este format din următoarele 20 de jucătoare: Diana Ciucă (SCM Râmnicu Vâlcea), Elena Şerban (Dunărea Brăila), Daciana Hosu (SCM Râmnicu Vîlcea) – portari, Raluca Băcăoanu (Gloria 2018 Bistriţa-Năsăud), Eliza Buceschi (CS Rapid), Nicoleta Dincă (Gloria 2018 Bistriţa-Năsăud), Cristina Florica (SCM Râmnicu Vâlcea), Alina Ilie (Gloria Buzău), Ana Maria Iuganu (Gloria Buzău), Cristina Laslo (Minaur Baia Mare), Laura Moisă (CSM Bucureşti), Andra Moroianu (Gloria 2018 Bistriţa-Năsăud), Cristina Neagu (CSM Bucureşti), Lorena Ostase (CSM Slatina), Gabriela Perianu (CSM Bucureşti), Crina Pintea (CSM Bucureşti), Anca Polocoşer (Minaur Baia Mare), Andreea Popa (Minaur Baia Mare), Laura Popa (CS Rapid), Laura Pristăviţa (Gloria 2018 Bistriţa-Năsăud).

Staff-ul tenic pentru acest stagiu de pregătire este format din Bent Dahl – antrenor secund, Fort Mauri Jaume – antrenor cu portarii, Ştefan Ciuntu – preparator fizic, Florin Ciocoiu – medic, Cristinel Gigiu – kinetoterapeut, Claudiu Mărăşteanu – masor, Ioan Radu Cheregi – performance analist şi Nicoleta Alexandrescu – antrenor federal.

Echipa României va participa între 19 şi 21 martie la turneul preolimpic din Muntenegru alături de Norvegia, Kazahstan şi echipa ţării gazdă. Primele două clasate la acest turneu îşi asigură participarea la Jocurile Olimpice de la Tokyo 2020.
