Week 10

Yes my friends, it is the end of my 10th week here in Argentina. I've befriended three really great girls: Megan, Tanique, and Erin. We've been hanging out, watching movies, drinking terere, studying, and practicing our  Spanish together for the last couple of weeks. Last Sabbath we went over to a friend's apartment (his name is Isreal but we we call him Izzy) and had a home cooked meal there. It was really nice in comparison to the comedor. This week was the end of school for the rest of the UAP. It's the end of their school year, not just Christmas Break for them, so everyone is going on their summer break. Some students have finals over the next few weeks (why they're so spread out I don't know) but  one of my roommates has already left for home. I got to move down to the bottom bunk which means I can use my computer and charge all from my bed now. It's really nice :-). ACA will basically have the run of the campus until the end of February.
Next week is finals for me. My hardest final is in Folklore and that's on Monday. As long as I get 85%'s on my Grammar, Composition, and Conversation exams I will be moving up to the Advanced 1 classes. I already and getting signed up for classes for the next trimestre. I'll be taking the three language classes along with Bible, Folklore (which is focusing on cooking and food this trimestre), Phonetics, Translation, and one other class, I dont remember what it is.
I'm ready for my Christmas Break to begin. It's been a long couple of weeks. In another two weeks we will have been here for four months. It's hard to believe I've really been here for that long and yet it feels so much longer. I made a comment the other day to the girls that it feels like this has always been our normal life and that everything else wasn't real. I suppose that's how life gets sometimes.
Anyway, it has been a very long week and I'm planning on sleeping soon. Good night and happy Sabbath.
