Argentina is tiring. They never sleep here.

For those of you who dont think I will keep up with this blog thing.... You are probably right, but I will try my best. Its been a few days because I have been busy with classes and Argentinas independence day was yesterday. Of course we didnt have class yesterday because of the holiday, so Tuesday "night was late night¨. Our group went to a restaruant for dinner at 10 o clock in the night. It was a mexican place, and let me tell you... it was mexican based on my bathroom trips later that night. sorry for the tmi.

After dinner we went to the bar. I did not drink because the beer wasnt free this time and we know how cheap I am. Plus I had to get up early the next morning which was stupid. I walked home with some friends at 2 15 in the morning. I got home about 3 and was yelled at by the argentine students that i left WAY early. Anyway the next morning Ihad to get up at 8 to drive with my host mother Marta to some city far away. We brought her friend a long too.

We visited a town just like german towns. We watched a parade of cowboys called gauchos. It was very interesting but Marta drove me crazy. Her friend was sweet though. Her friend brought us to her house later and I met the daughter who is an english teacher with my host sister. It was nice to talk to someone of that culture and explain my frustrations. I got to try many things there including mate which is like a green tea but looks like drugs. It was awesome though a little bitter.

Today I had classes again. It was a sweet class but I still didnt understand much. We learned some dances but I didnt understand cuz of the language barrier. I felt sick today, but am fighting through it. I have a lot of homework and am finally starting to get overwhelmed. I want to know spanish now haha. Hope I didnt bore anyone with this post. I just wanted to get another post up for all you doubters about me keeping a blog. Oh yeah and if I ever figure out the camara thing, I WILL PUT PICTURES UP. Of course I dont understand computers, cameras or computers yet, and everything is in spanish. Alright, I have to go again cuz the mexican restaruant is being friendly to me again. Does anybody know yet if you can flush tp down the toilet here or not?? Cuz I dont know, however have done it a few times. Anyway, Ciau Y´all.
