¡Hola hola!

Another week has gone by, and I feel more and more at home. My classes are going very well, even though there were no classes this week. It is Semana Mechónes (Freshmen week) and there have been a lot of activities during the evening for all of the students. I went to a movie last night with my Chilean friend Daniella and Allison, an exchange student from the University of Michigan. It was an Argentinian film called Como un Avion Estrellado. It was very good, and it had amazing music!

Later tonight there is a fiesta on campus that I will be attending. I hear that a lot of students go and that there is coffee and music. I will have to let you know how that all goes. Last night there was a concert. I really wanted to go, but it was raining so hard that I decided it would be better to stay inside after 11 p.m.

Tomorrow I leave for Chiloe, an island of the coast of Chile, with Kristi!!! I am excited about that. Last weekend the other students from Central went, but I stayed behind. I went to Parque Oncol instead and hung out with Dani. The park was fun, but it ended up raining for most of the day and I was soaked to the bone. I had fun even in the rain, but on the way back I was pretty cold.


Like I said earlier, classes are going well, and the students and faculty are very nice. I am helping Kristi with some of her English classes and getting to know more students that way. I also joined the American Corner group, which is pretty much a group of internationals who volunteer to lead English conversation hours. My first session is next Wednesday!!!! It should be a lot of fun.

I just wanted to give you all an update. For the most part everything is the same. I am going well, the food is still delicious, classes are interesting and I am trying to travel as much as I can.
Other than that, I do not have much else to say..haha. I will be sure to write after my adventure this weekend.

Chao for now!
