I Threw it on the Ground

I love being here in Chile and getting updates on stuff in the US

Andy Samberg in Threw in on the Ground...love the music video
Obama wins the Nobel Peace Prize...well...hmm...
I apparently need to see Whip It, Couples Retreat, and Zombieland...I will get on it ASAP
The New Season of How I Met Your Mother is AMAZING!! I am unimpressed with the office and big bang theory, which is saddening.

Updates from the South

The time changes yesterday. Yeah, didn't know that until about 1pm THIS afternoon. Good thing there wasn't school today! I would have felt so stupid.

I am coming back to UIW next semester!! I love Chile, but I don't need to come back for another semester. I am stoked to get back to San Antonio!

I have new Chilean girlfriends-it's so exciting. I am trying to woe one back to bring to UIW. Isn't that creeper of me? I want to bring back a Chilean with me!! One of the girls is REALLY interested in studying in the US, so I am going to try!!

Katie Cheney is coming to Chile! I am stoked!! I told my host mom all about her today, and she was so cute. She got all excited, and said that she was more than welcome to stay with us...so we are going to have to fig out how to live in my room together!

I went to Casablanca on Friday. It's this small town about half an hour away from here, and it is so cute!! We have a Chilean friend that invited us over to his house for the day. It was like being home. Everyone was just relaxing and talking around the house the whole day. That town is famous for their vineyards, so I am going to have to go back and get wine for everyone. I want to bring wine back as gifts, but I feel like I am going to look like an alcoholic! I mean wine is famous here...and cheaper than the US...so it's the perfect gift!! However, I don't know how they will feel about me smuggling like ten bottles back, and I don't trust mailing that much. That's what is up.

Saturday I went to the beach to chill out. I FINALLY made use of my hammock...as I giant beach towel. What have I been thinking? It's perfect! I can't believe it took me two months to discover it is the most comfortable thing to lay on ever. I am going to rock this gorgeous hammock all over san antonio when I get back!

Today I have to get crackin on homework. I have presentations and wonderful tests coming up! I told my mom Derek was coming over to work on homework, and she was like ARE YOU GOING TO THE BEACH? and I was like no, we are going to work here in the apartment...apparently that is boring and lame. I should obviously go to the beach to work on homework. Haha I think that is so funny. I am going to miss living on the beach sooo badly! Maybe I will put a kiddie pool in the back soccer fields at UIW and rock out in that. Gosh, I am such a nerd!

More adventures to come this week...that is for sure!!
