i am sorry it has taken me so long to write something, i have been putting it off because i tell this story in pieces to like 10 people haha. anyways i dont know where i left off, so i will just update you on what i can think of.

this past weekend i had my rotary orientation, and it was a blast. we got lost on the way there, but lucky for me we didnt get as lost as the other people from my town haha. we got there and introduced ourselves and then we all went outside and did team building activites it was a blast. they are making a cd of pictures for us and they will give them to us soon and when they do i will post them. after that we ate, then sat in groups and talked about what was and wasnt an exchange student and things (in castellano) then had to share our opinions with the group...yeah that is super hard to do when you have no idea what is going on haha. anyways, then we just all hung out for a while, doing things and talking with people from all over. there are about 5 other girls from the usa, 3 people from germany (alemania) and one girl from france. one of the boys from germany (jakob) lives in chivilcoy too so now we are best friends. anyways that night we had a camp fire where we had to say 3 words that described exchange for us and then say what we were afraid of (connecting to exchange so not like i am afraid of snakes or something). then after that we went inside and sang kareoke :) it was so much fun jakob and i won prizes! haha yeah i am learning how to sing here so be ready for me to be the next american idol ;) we went to bed around 3am, and woke up around 830 for breakfast and things. that day we went over the 5 Ds and rules and stuff. then in our groups we had to make a play talking about something in rotary (a rule) so my group held like an AA meeting for all the kids who got sent home and we had to talk about why we got sent home (in spanish) and i was a drug addict. it was hilarious haha. the whole thing was so much fun. then i got home and showered and went to the plaza with the boys for a while which was fun.

monday i went to school, came home slept, then went shopping with cori for a dress for the quince which i am super excited about. i dont know if i wrote this in my last blog but i get to go to a quince which is like my super sweet 16 here but better. the quince is for vicky, a girl i play volleyball with who just happens to be the cousin of one of my friends here, small town i guess haha. anyways then after that i came home and got ready. javii came and picked me up around 1130 i think and we went to davids house for a while. then we went to benedicto where i saw jakob, and carla and carmela. i havent seen the girls since they have been back from bariloche other then cori so that was really nice, then we went to ozono a night club i have never been to, and danced and hung out til about 7am. i saw a bunch of people there because pretty much the entire youth population was in there for dia de primavera (we didnt haev school tuesday because it was the first day of spring) and all teh other night clubs were closed, so needless to say it was packed. i put pictures up on picasa so you all can see. then i went home and woke up around 1030am (about 3and a half hours of sleep) and went to la pampa (like a ymca but cooler) to hang out all day. i was there til about 7pm. so needless to say i am exhausted.

i dont really know what else to update you all on at this point, if you have any questions or you know i forgot something, please feel free to comment and i will write more :) your wish is my command...kinda. haha

i miss you all and love you all
