Wrinkles? What Wrinkles

I LOVE BIRTHDAYS!!!! And luckily tomorrow we celebrate one!! Don't worry, Lauren, I won't tell your age :) You're BEAUTIFUL inside and out and I see zero wrinkles. Oh and did I say that you were amazing and I probably wouldn't be alive in Argentina without you. Cannot wait to celebrate with you and your daddy tomorrow touring around Buenos Aires! Ohhh yeahhhhh :):)

I taught my first lesson today. It actually went really well. No, I'm not teaching a classroom of students. No, they are not kids. I am teaching ESL, to anyone who needs it. #workinggirl Currently at Cinemark, which just so happens to be pretty famous. I mean, I am pretty famous... soooo it kinda works out! It was actually really interesting. I taught... well tried to teach on the differences in "do/make". In Spanish it's one word, so things got tricky. It was a lot of fun though and the man is really nice.

When you go into the corporate offices of Cinemark, the security guard has to authorize you to go to a specific floor. I walked up to him and said, "Necesito ir al cinco piso". That's Spanish, right? It might not be correct, but it's Spanish. His response? "I don't speak English, speak slower". Well, I kinda figured that, hence the reason I spoke Spanish to you. This Southern accent is really killing me. And by Southern I mean, everyone thinks that I live near LA... complete opposite sides of the country (literally). No, I don't live on a plantation.. no I don't milk cows everydays, no we don't ride horses to the grocery store. Yes, I do say "yall", I don't drink moonshine and I hate beer, and I will charm your socks off :) I hope my friends I met on the way to the grocery store see this, they'll appreciate it.

I have another interview in the morning with an institute. Hopefully they will have a few jobs available. After that I am going to go on the city bus tour of Buenos Aires with Lauren and her dad for her birthday. I have my first private lesson tomorrow night. Nothing too formal, just trying to see what level her English is at then go from there.

I am feeling so much better after being sick. I got really upset and just didn't want to be here because I felt so horrible. I'm feeling much better now and am a happy little girl again!

Love you all!

P.S. --> ERIN MONFILS IS GETTING MARRIED NOVEMBER 17!!!!!!!!!!! #AMERICA
