Felizidades

         Yesterday: So at 4am yesterday morning a group of very tired, some grumpy, and some ungodly happy ACA boarded the bus for Concepcion de Uruguay (still don't have a Spanish keyboard, sorry). Its about a 3.5 hour bus ride, i think, to get our visas and all that jazz. Basically, we just sat in the office for six hours while we all signed our names on at least ten different pieces of paper. Not fun or exciting. I think most people slept on the bus, i tried and failed. I had gone to bed at 12 that night but then got up at 3.30am so i had only 3.5 hours of sleep under my belt. I won't bore you with the details of the bus ride but by the time we got back i had vertigo and could hardly form sentences in English much less in Spanish. See, some people can function on little sleep, not me. But seeing as we got back at 4pm i couldn't go to bed yet so i watched one of my favorite anime movies, Howl's Moving Castle. Its one of those movies that reminds you of your childhood/teen years and make you feel all warm and fuzzy. But the best part of that entire was going to bed at 8.20 and being asleep less than ten minutes later. I slept all the way until 10am this morning. Never have i ever been so happy to sleep than falling asleep yesterday.

      In General: So i have come to realize that although i am learning at a slower rate than i had hoped, Spanish words and verbs are popping in and out of my head all the time. I still understand more than i can say but i don't mind too much. I am definitely picking up the dialectic speech and I am slightly remorse  because i know that no where else in the world speaks like they do and to anyone else it will sound silly. But i don't care cause i actually think it sounds better...maybe because all the 'Sh' sounds remind me of German....did i already talk about this? I'm still pretty tired from yesterday so i can't remember. Well anyways i am excited because i will be able to get money again which means that i wont have to be left behind when all my friends go on the weekend trips. Oh did i mention every weekend is three days because we have no classes on Friday? Well Monday is a holiday too, so its a four day weekend again. Life is good here in Argentina. :)
