Jan 7 and Jan 8





Hola,
Monday Jan 7, I went to school, I am now being tutored by myself. After school, I ate lunch at the student apartment complex then walked around with a Norweign guy named Martin. We walked around for quite a while and talked about life. I took Martin to a mechanical sunflower, that is located at the University in Palermo. The sunflower is pretty amazing because it opens when the sun comes up, moves with the sun and closes when it gets dark. Its huge and silver and has red lights as pollan. After the flower, Martin and I went back to the residence apartments, where I met up with Krista, Jared, and Sara to take serval subte's to get our Bus tickets for Iguaza waterfalls! All of us were sweating like crazy and there were so many people on the subte it was pretty ridiculous. When we reached our destination an area that looked like TJ Mexico we all walked to the bus station. The bus station is huge, you can definatly get lost in the place. We bought our tickets 400 pesos each, round trip on (first class). We are all looking really forward to it!! We leave Thursday Januray 10th in the evening around 6:30pm. We will be staying in a really nice hostel with a pool. This Thursday is my last day of school. After our adventure to buying our bus tickets we went home and made dinner. Many of the girls and I sat around and talked about our lives and played some cards BS. After a round of Bull Sh** that took forever we went to get lollypops and went to a resturant where a group of us got food and alcohol. I had my candy so I was content. After the restaurant some of the girls and I went back to the residence and went to bed, so tried...
Tuesday Jan 8th, in the morning I had breakfast with alexa who is also from San Diego and Dan. After Breakfast I walked to school and talked in spanish with my professor for a long time then got to buisness with learning new vocab and grammar. After school I went and had lunch, banana and peanut butter sandwich (yes I finally found peanut butter at the store, thank the lord). This lunch is now a staple of mine! Then after lunch I got my bag together and went and got another massage, because my shoulders and head have been hurting from the heat and my huge bag. After the massage I went to Belgrano and picked up my laundry. I got to the home stay apartment had a snack, took an amazing, nice cold shower and got ready for the evening. By evening I mean dinner at 10pm and I am supposively going out at 2am. Wow this is going to be a crazy night because I have class at 9:30am. Oh well, got to live it up Argentina style!! You only live once or 5 times in my case. Tonight I am going to dinner with some awesome girls I met and a few of the guys in the residence. I am having a blast and meeting so many new people. I will be safe and let everyone know how things go. I figure I probably won't go to sleep until 3 or 4 am even if I weren't to go out because its so incredably hot, so I might as well experience Argentina's night life with fabulous people. Hope the rain isn't too crazy, and hopefully no flooding. Even though its really hot, its nice that its summer. I love the sun!!
