i am sorry it has taken me so long to update this, i have kind of been putting it off because i put a lot of time into it and it kinda is a burden ha. because i tell people stories all week so this feels like i am telling it AGAIN. ha anyways okay,

Monday/Tuesday: we took mery to the airport that was all that happened, i was supposed to start school tuesday but since we got home so late on monday night my mom said i didnt have to go. so then tuesday i slept pretty much all day and then started volleyball. julia went with me to practice, and i will just sum up tuesdays, thursdays, and todays practice now: didnt warm up at all, hit and set for an hour, then played 2 on 2 or 3 on 3 for an hour because like no one showed up, it is super boring. the coach doesnt do anything she stands there i dont think i have heard her say anything about volleyball. the girls i play with are not very nice they all give me dirty looks and things and they are a lot like my class mates which i will describe in a second. anyways i had my 3rd practice tonight and more people were supposed to be there but they were not, and i hurt my back and i tried to sit out and stretch and i got yelled at but then she let 3 other girls sit out. so julia and i decided i am going to quit that club and pick up running until i can either find another club or another sport.

Wednesday(School Summary): i woke up and went to school with my mom, she took a cab with me because it was raining, and after talking to with the like head master guy, i was taken to a class room. which ended up being the wrong one...haha. so then after starting to make friends and things, i got moved it was super. did i mention the uniform is hideous?? haha anyways so my classes are: biology, chem. physics, physcology, math, literature, english, labratory, and geography. and my only teacher that actually understands some english other than my english teacher is my math teacher which is somewhat unnecessary because her class is easy and it definelty my favorite other then english ha. anyways, i dont think they have other had an exchange student because they want me to take notes on a lecture in spanish and read a book in spanish that is similar to hamlet or romeo and juliet, so i am using google a lot haha. julia is going to come to school with me sometime soon and talk to my teachers about my requirements to pass, so i am just doing the best i can right now. on friday, i only went to school for one hour because all of our other teachers just didnt show up to school haha how awesome is that?? and then today to labratory room was being cleaned so for the two hours we were supposed to haev class, we watched a movie instead. and i onyl have 5 hours of school a day...awesome :) also on wednesday fede uno came over for my first guitar lesson. two hours later my fingers hurt and i had learned 7 cords :) hehe

Friday Night: was pizza night at javiis house, i went over around 930 and javii and rodii made pizza for me, them, juany, iggy, franky, tony, and bruu. it was soooo good. then after we ate for like 2 hours, we went to markos house to wish him a happy birthday :) he is wearing a neck brace because he fell two meters face first, poor thing. after that we went and picked up javiis mom and took her to work at sum the new night club here so i got to go in and take pictures and things wihtout it being packed with people which was nice. then we went back to javiis house and hung out. i left around 2am, which is super early to be going home but i was tired and things. i have pictures on my picasa account if you would like to see the happenings of that night.

Saturday: fede uno came over for 2 hours to teach me more guitar, and i am getting better at switching between cords but i need A LOT more practice ha. then after he left i got ready and at 11pm carla cori carmela and carolina picked me up and we went to fede unos quinta for a party. a quinta is like a summer home at the edge of town with a pool and things (the pool wasnt like functioning because it is winter here) and you go there in the summer for the weekend or the day or whatever. anyways the party was for bariloche which is where they all are now. it is about 20 hours south and is similar to our senior trips back home but they go for every year of secondary school. so the party was like woooo tomorrow we leave. anyways so we went and partied and i left around 4am because i was super tired. juany and iggy were my babysitters and so they took me home and things, the nice thing about having lots of guy friends is they all look after me as if i am going to break at anytime, so i feel safe. once again pictures on picasa, check em out.

Sunday: i ws woken up at 1030am by crazy bariloche goers outside of my house because they wanted me to say goodbye, so i got up and went out to see everyone, and then walked with them to their bus, and waved as they left me here alone for 10 days, i hate you all. haha then when i came home tia, tio, y mis primos were here for lunch. so we ate lunch, then dessert then the cousins and i went to aunt and uncles work shop to feed the chickens and drink mate. then they brought us home. those were the highlights of sunday because then i jsut did some homework and watched tv adn things.

My week consists of school and sleeping and eating pretty much right now, next week i am going to buenos aires with julia for a few days and missing school which is awesome. then that weekend i have my rotary orientation for the weekend so i get to meet all the students which will be nice. btu it is a bummer because that weekend is when everyone is back from barlioche so i will miss all the fun welcome back stuff. so that is what is on the agenda for now. oh adn this weekend i might hang out with franky so he can teach me some soccer stuff :) since fede is out of town and cant teach me guitar i gotta learn something else. :)

that is all for now, email me if you want details, have questions or whatever. feel free to comment on the pictures or on the blog. les extraño mucho, y les amo. un beso grand, chau
