Tomorrow will be my two week mark. That is crazy! 4 months to go! I got my class schedule yesterday. I will be taking spanish, spanish writing, a argentine poetry class, a sculpture class at a universtiy, possibly a tango class at a universtiy, and a theater class for 18/19 credits. As of now I do not have class on monday which sounds like it would be good to travel but a lot of people have friday off instead so unless I find a few more like me I wont really get 3 day weekend trips. I hope it wont be a bit deal but who knows. I am continuasly disapointed with the IES organization but so far I've been able to survive.

I got a cell phone yesterday which is super exciting! I really like it too. Everyone else got theirs like 2 weeks ago when we got here but I was going to unlock my phone from home and it just wasnt working so I finally just bought a new one! It is nice b/c I felt so isolated without a way to contact new friends.

Also, on thursday we went to a estancia which I think is like a ranch. Anyway, it had an outdoor pool so that is all that matters. I dont think that Argentina has outdoor pools. I am shocked b/c its so gosh darn hot here! We had another great lunch of every kind of meat possible and desserts and salad and fruit! It would have been a $50 per person meal back in the US but I dont know what we paid for it b/c it was covered by IES!

I went out again last night. First, I met up with a bunch of girls and we went to dinner. Then, w went to a kiosko which is just like a sketchy store that sells many things including my favorite, alcohol. lol. We eventually left and went to a bar and then tried to continue to a club but it just was not working so I just went home. And now only 6 hours later did I wake up on my own. Its crazy, some nights I sleep like 10+ hours and then others when I got to bed late I wake up early. Now I am 2 for 2 for almost going clubbing. I really want ot go to a club with american hip hop. :)

Today is a free day! I think that I will go shopping for that jean skirt I've been wanting.

INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY: I'd say that I've seen about 2/3 of the women population in jean mini skirts.
