"Sometimes I forget I am in South America, and then things like this happen"

3-17-10
I woke up a bit tired but got up. I watched Lost then got ready for the day. After getting my stuff together, I headed over and grabbed lunch. I ate with some friends from last night. It was enjoyable. I then headed over to school. Once on campus, I met up with some friends and one of my program heads. I had a question about my Spanish homework so I asked my program head. I then headed into my economics class.

While we waited for my professor, the power random went out. The quote up top is from one of my peers on the matter. Then my professor showed up. Like last week, he went off on many tangents. He tried to teach us some stuff. But then he went on like a 20 minute thing about "Charley" Marx and socialism, and Chavez. He is very interesting...somewhat not very PC which is unusual coming from Guilford. After making through the class, I headed to Spanish.

In Spanish, we went over the homework and talked about various subjects. I quite enjoy the teacher. She and I like to make jokes to each other. For example when we were talking about the bad weather here that she blamed on climate change courtesy of the First World, I said no problem.

After class, I headed home to get away from the rain. I relaxed for most of the evening while the rain came down as did thunder and lighting. I considered going out to celebrate St. Patrick's but it was too rainy that I don't really want to risk it. So it is a nice evening in. I am trying to figure out classes for the Fall

  1. Yeah, I bet little episodes like that kinda re-enforce the fact that you are in South America. Wow about your teacher blaming the First World; its so odd because we don't think about ourselves that way everyday. Sounds like you are learning a lot love. Yay :)
