Friday
May 18th- Day 79
I had
classes this morning and then I stayed in the café so I could skype with Lottie
and do some of our online homework before I went home. I hung around the house
in the afternoon since it was a rainy and gross day out and got ready for
dinner because it’s Maddie’s birthday and her host mom invited Susan and I over
for dinner. We went over there around 9pm and we had a delicious meal together.
We had crepes that were filled with ricotta and spinach (there’s a name for it,
but I forgot), a slice of pork with some sauce on it, fruit salad, and probably
one of the best birthday cakes I’ve had in my life- so many different layers!
We were all stuffed, but then we had to head to the apartment of one of the
ambassadors because they had organized a little fiesta for Maddie’s birthday as
well so there was a good group of people together for the night.
Day 80-
Saturday May 19th
I slept
in today and didn’t do much in the morning. I went running and worked out in
the afternoon and attempted to make plans, but that never happened so it was a
pretty uneventful day. After my dinner of what my host dad called “Mexican
meat” since it was spicy (and pretty darn good I might add) I decided I’d watch
some TV at and started watching a movie in Spanish, but then during a
commercial I flipped through channels and saw the beginning of Forrest Gump so
I ended up watching that instead even though it was in English with subtitles
in Spanish. I can never resist watching my favorites!
Sunday
May 20th- Day 81
Today
was pretty uneventful as well. Maddie and I met in the park and looked at the
few artisans that were out and then just sat and talked for a while to get some
fresh air. It’s another ugly day so we didn’t stay too long and on my walk home
the rain finally started so we left just in time! The rest of the afternoon I
worked on homework and looking up things for my trip to Mendoza next weekend.
My host mom and I had empanadas for dinner and dulce de batata for dessert.
