its hard to believe its our 6th week of school already. things are going well at school and with my internship. since it's been awhile since i've blogged we're gonna have to go list style because i can't think
in no particular order...
1. we watched the super bowl at a bar here in Santiago. it started at about 12:30am our time and got done at about 4:30-5am-ish. the commentator spoke spanish and it was hilarious. they didn't show any commercials though so let me know if i missed any good ones! it was wonderful to watch my PACKERS win!
2. we went hiking one afternoon to this awesome park. it was pretty far from the city but we had an awesome view! it was nice to get a change of scenery for awhile too.
3. there is a japanese girl living in my house for a month. she doesn't speak a lick of spanish so i am getting really good at translating for my mom. shes only been here for a day and its already getting a little annoying though...we'll see how this goes
4. celina, olivia, and i booked our trip for our break called 'carnavales' (aka mardi gras week). we'll be gracing london, paris, prague, and krakow, poland with our presence during the week and i'm SOOOO excited. we also bought flights to italy for our 'semana santa' break!
5. we went to a contemporary art museum here on wednesday. art isn't really my thing but there was an awesome photography exhibit. the photographer is a native of galicia and it was some of her best works between the 1970s and 2010. there was also a really cool exhibit with eggs - representing life. it was real eggs and people could walk through it. talk about terrifying!
6. MY FAMILY IS COMING HERE!!! i am so excited to see them its unreal. my spanish mom promised that she would have a party for them when they come - complete with FOOD WITH EYES!! get excited if you're reading this, fam jam!
7. this weekend we are going to MADRID! we're flying from santiago on friday night and going on a pub crawl when we get there! we'll explore madrid on saturday/sunday, and on sunday night we're going to a SOCCER GAME! so excited! monday we're thinking about taking the train to toledo before we fly out
thats all i can think of for now! miss you all! xoxo
