When in Buenos Aires

The rest of this week has been awesome! I went to Spanglish on Friday and it was just how I explained it! I met a lot of awesome people. I think that I might start teaching 2 older people before I get my certification.... so excited! I will definitely start going to Spanglish a lot. It's also in different parts of the city, so it will be a good adventure for me to find my way around the city! After Spanglish, a couple of friends and I hung out. We went to Palermo and they had some drinks. In the US, I would have been home at 2:30... but here I didn't get home until 4. Apparently that was early?

Let's see.... Saturday I slept in. Well until 11, so not really. I went to the park for a little bit, but it was really hot. Then of course, I went to the mall and bought cupcake pans!!!!! I am so so so excited about that, if you can imagine :) After that I met up with Mica and we walk around for a couple of hours. She showed me this really cool place. It's a park, but in it there is this metal flower. I guess that's what it is. When the sun is down, the flower is closed. As the sun comes up, the flower opens. It also turns with the sun. It was so cool and there was a really pretty sunset. I also got to meet her friend Jime. She was really nice. She is studying translation and works in a bookstore that they sell books in English... woohoo! I had my first mental break down last night. I really started missing my little babies, Maddie and Arthur! It just makes me sad that Maddie is so old and there is always a chance that I won't see her again. I also really really miss my Saturday night date night with Guy and Liza! I can't believe that next time I see Guy he will be 5. That is just unreal. It seems like just last week I kept texting Anna to see if she had him yet. It makes me feel old that I was 18 when he was born... crazy!! So, Anna if you see this - email me some pictures, please!!

Today I went to the pool at one of my friends houses. It was kind of, not really, far away. It was the farthest I have been away from Recoleta, where I am staying since I have been here. I met a bunch of people who did the TEFL program at the same place I am. That was really good. Also, at Nico's house, where we went to swim I got to see his dogs. That made me really happy. Still sad that I can't see Maddie or Arthur, but it was good to be able to play with them. After that we went to San Telmo and walked around and had some lunch. Well, in the US not really lunch. It will be my dinner. I still haven't gotten used to the whole eating late thing yet. I know mom and dad trained me for this my whole life, by eating at 8pm. But eating at 10pm is a little too late for me.

San Telmo 

Overall a good weekend, hopefully I'll do something interesting this week to post about! Hope everyone back home is doing well! Miss you all!!
