okay so since im in the blogging mood i´ve decided that im gonna blog as much as i can so u know i can catch up today. it´s like almost been a month and im only now blogging about my third day. wow. okay im really trying to shorten these blogs but once i start i cant really stop. ask my mom she knows. but this day happens to be filled with tons of stuff so this blog is gonna be super long so be prepared. well anyways the title of the blog says it all so im just gonna start. okay im not i have to say something. i havent been keeping up in my journal that much so yeah....im gonna have to stop staying on the computer for like 3 hours. lol and start writing. okay well anyways here´s my post....
okay so i the day started out pretty much the same as all the other days, me waking up drinking tea, running to catch the bus, riding the bus with the little kids. u know that same old same old. but that day was different because that day marked the first time i ever went to school on a friday. so needless to say i was super excited. (lets see if i feel the same a month from now though. lol) that and i was looking forward to the big dance that was happening that night.
well when i got to school my first set of classes were english. so i was all praise the lord a class i understand. well during the class everyone (except for charles and i) had to take an english test. while everyone was taking the test charles and i read the first and only newsletter in S.P.A. thats published in english. it was really informational. i read the whole thing cover to cover. it reminded me of new mexico. it´s funny. i´m bringing it back so my mom can read it. at the ending of the class we were all separated into the different majors (tourism(mine), buisness/administration(charles´s), electricity, and agriculture). the english teacher then told us to get into groups of five so of course i picked mimo, josefyna, valleria, and david. but then the english teacher was all no u and charles are going to be together. the teacher then said that we were going to be presenting an oral report on magdalena...in spanish. i was all oh great. but i found out that it was due in october so i´m like thats plenty of time to be able to prepare an awesome report on magdalena. the teacher told us that we could prepare food and stuff like that so right away i was all im so having my mom send me some powdered red chile. i cant wait to see their faces when they eat some. lol. im so mean.
the next set of classes were language which down here is spanish. lol. the class was pretty easy. all we had to do was pick an advertisment in the language book and answer questions about it. well i of course had to pick the ad with the hot guy on it. what i had to have something good to look at. lol. me and mimo were partners so we would answer each question in english and in spanish. what smarties. lol. yeah it took awhile for me to translate the question but thank god charles was there i was all charles come here like 30 times. poor him. (we wound up getting a 6.something on the assignment so i was happy. oh down here thats like an A)
the next set of classes were math. during the class we took a test on linear equations and how to graph them. wow i so failed. i had no idea what was going on. because sorry to say. that was math i never learned or never remembered either one. but the math teacher is cool. so i think he forgives me for being a little stupid. lol.
after all that it was time for lunch so i was all YES!!!!!! i´ve never been more happier for lunch. during lunch i found out that even if i buy my food outside i still have to go eat it in the lunch room so i was all bummers. but hey it´s not that bad. i also thought that my ipod was broken but it turned out that it was just messed up. lol. but down worry it still works. and it´s good.
so after lunch i pretty mush did nothing except talk to the english teacher because some kids have a religon class and i dont so i have 2 hours of free time. WOO HOO!!!! yeah i taught mimo all the state names and i got my tourism pants. their totally forest service green i started laughing so hard when i got them i was all im gonna be smokey the bear!!! i think charles was the only one that got that. lol. by the way Help smokey prevent forest fires. also we had a tourism group meeting and this is when we signed everybody up for sports and stuff like that for the next day because it was the school´s aniversery and they celebrate it. of course i didnt sign up for any sports because well everyone knows that im really not good at sports. but okay back to my story. well after talking with daniel (the english teacher) we had to go back to the language class. and pretty much all mimo and i did was finish answering all the questions.
after school we had to wait for the bus which like never came so we were all whatever lets just go. so charles, mimo, josefyna, valleria, jonny and i all took off down the road. while we were walking jo´s(josefyna´s nickname) mom picked her up so we were one person short. wow this seems like one of the math problems ...and then how many were left. lol. okay anyways...i got tired of walking and i told charles that i would pay him to carry me all the rest of the way so charles picks me up and starts to carry me but then he stops carrying me so i didnt have to pay him. he didnt carry me all the way. lol. well anyways we were able to catch a ride in a taxi thingy. on the ride over to my house mimo let me sit next to jonny. he´s so cute. ok so we got to my house and i of course needed to change before i went to the dance i was gonna wear my pink skirt but everyone thought that it would be too cold to wear it. which of course it totally was so thank goodness that i wore pants. during the time i was changing my outfits(like 5 times) jonny and valleria took off to their houses so it was just me,charles and mimo. but then jonny and valleria came back and we took off to the plaza because there was supposed to be a meeting in the plaza. but it turned out that there was no meeting. people. well sometime jonny and charles took off to charles house and valleria took off to somewhere. lol. so it was just me and mimo. so we took off to her restuarant and thats where we met up with david. this is when they told me that i was going to be the queen of tourism in the upcoming week and naturally i was super excited. i loved it. jonny also came over to mimo´s restuarant during this time so add jonny into the math problem. lol. *hint theres 4 of us. lol*
okay cuz this upcoming part is gonna be like super long i advise that u go now and use the bathroom or make some popcorn or something. lol. okay thats enough of a break back to the story...
now it was mimo´s turn to get ready for the dance. so we all headed down the street to mimo´s house. ok at mimo´s house they have mice in a cage and ewww i cant stand those things. their so creepy. but anyways mimo covered the cage so i didnt have to see them. but jonny kept uncovering the cage and i kept freaking out. i made evrybody laugh by going and standing underneath mimo´s light which looks like a halo. i was all ahh... im an angel and they all laughed. after mimo was ready we all headed to the dance. during the time we were going jonny took off with his cousin.
we got to the dance but the dance hadnt really started so me and mimo went to find her friend rumy whos a police officer down here. david stayed with some of his friends. we found rumy and we headed back to the dance.
the whole story about the dance is a story for a whole other time so i´ll just say. that it was a drama filled dance. (what dance isnt drama filled). i danced with 4 guys. 1 of those guys happened to be jonny. the dance went till 1 in the morning my new mom came and picked me up and i went home and fell asleep.
this was also when i first met my new mom´s boyfriend/husband manuel. he´s real cool he drove us home so i didnt have to walk thank goodness my legs were so tired from dancing for like 4 hours.
and thats the end of my blog. i hope u liked it. i tried to shorten it down that didnt work. lol. ok it´s now time for random answers to questions that everybody ask me. ok answer #1 yes i am learning spanish all i have to do now is learn is how to pronounce stuff and talk in spanish more. im learning how to translate what people are telling me faster so im not standing there for like 5 minutes like what? answer #2 yes i do like it down here and yes i do miss the states im not quite sure if i miss magdalena yet but i do miss my friends and family and MCDONALDS!!!!! answer # 3 yes im eating enough. im probably eating too much. lol. answer# 4 no i havent been able to go tour around because i havent had time between school and work i never do anything. and answer # 5 yes i love where i work althoigh i think im getting switched to a different job at a different place. but everyone who reads this blog go look up tierra atacama. thats the hotel and spa that i worked at. it´s so cool and the people are so nice there. i highly recommend it.
