For your entertainment :)
Six pieces of information that have yet to reach our friends here in Argentina:
1) A person having one foot on the city bus does not give the driver the permission to gun it (so scary!)
2) You really don't have to walk around with a unibrow...it's actually a very solvable problem
3) We would all appreciate it if you mothers would at least TRY to cover up while nursing in public
4) It's probably healthy to occasionally attempt to return from going out with your friends before 6 am every weekend...lack of sleep will catch up with you eventually...
5) Fruit does NOT equal dessert. I don't know who started that lie here, but it's not true...
6) Drinking Coke like it's water might be nice now, but you can't keep it up your whole life...your body will hate you...
So, nothing much has happened since my last post, so I thought I'd throw in that list for your enjoyment :) Classes were pretty normal last week, nothing too special! We did have a four-day weekend though, which was really nice! I went downtown to an Argentine friend's apartment Saturday to work on a project and it was a lot of fun! It's really cool because here there is a section of downtown Córdoba where all of these skyscraper apartment buildings are, where most of the hundreds of thousands of college students here live! Therefore, that part of downtown is always covered with students! Lots of fun!
Last week, my Argentine cousin, her husband, and two little girls (3 and 5) came to visit and that was a lot of fun! We had 15 people total for dinner two nights in a row! I had so much fun interacting with the two girls, especially the older one, since she's learning English in school and thought it was so cool that I spoke English :)
This weekend I'm pretty sure I'm going to Mendoza, which is about a 6 hour bus ride away! I'm really excited! I'm sure I'll have a lot to tell you about that trip! I hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter! Chau!
