So i've never had a Blog before, in fact i'm still not really sure what a blog exactly is...but Hey! Here i am...blogging.
I'm not really sure who will read this so i'm going to pretend everyone is going to read it! :)
So this is day is day 4 in Argentina. So far this week i have missed a plane, spent a day in Texas by myself, decided i liked Texas because everyone was so nice, got on a plane to Buenos Aires and met a nice America who gave me some pointers about exchanging money, thought the plane was going to crash several times, got a nasty cold, my asthma kicked in because of my cold, found the one other ACA (the program I'm going through to be here) girl who missed her flight too and found our bus, Got on that bus and drove for 5 hours until we met the ACA director here in Argentina, Heraldo in Rosario (the 3rd largest city in Argentina), Arrived at the school, Met my roommate Vanessa, and then you know blah blah blah now its Friday. Wow what a long list. I should be embarrassed I'm an English grader. But since I'm in Argentina i have committed myself to misspelling English words and using bad grammar.
But let me back up. On the Bus ride from Buenos Aires to Rosario i saw some of the most hilarious things. So we are driving along and i'm sitting with Elena (the other girl who missed her flight from Houston Tx) and we are looking out the window and we see the freeway and houses and things like this. Then we pass a line of cars parked on the grass in the median between the two lanes. Not only are they parked there some are completely abandoned and smooshed. In the grass...like where people aren't supposed to park. I think this is kinda funny. Then we got out of the city and we are passing farm land...well actually its more like flat land covered in trash, i am assuming it was originally farmland. I don't think i have ever seen that much trash in one place that wasn't a dump. But one of the funniest things i saw was a road that went up into an over pass that just stopped midway in the air. Like a bridge that was unfinished so it just ended. Its not as funny when i say it but it looked hilarious, especially since we were out in the middle of trash land.
So made it through the first few couple days, took the placement exam and was placed into advanced 1 so i'm happy. Now i just have to make myself go find more Argentinian friends.
