Settling into a routine.

Definitely getting into a routine, haha.

-School
-Shopping
-Speaker part 2
-Dinner with friends!

Classes were alright today. Nothing really special or anything at this point. Just a lot of conjugating. We conjugated irregular verbs in the past tense... :/ I wish I was better at conjugating! Hopefully that will come with time, though. :)

After school Brad and I went shopping for about 30-45 minutes. It was pretty fast. All I got were a pair of gloves [much, much needed], earrings and a necklace. I'm really excited for when I can actually wear this stuff in the US! I won't chance wearing any of it here, because a girl from my program had her necklace yanked off of her neck, even though it was from forever 21. :/
I also tried getting a pair of boots, but that didn't turn out well. My shoe size is apparently not common down here [go figure], so I am going to have to realllly search for some boots if I want them.

Tonight was also the second part of the speaker. It was interesting, but we didn't really have a lot of questions since she spoke in so much depth last time. It actually turned a bit awkward. I did learn some things, though. I asked if they had a system similar to the US's system for people who have disabilities [it is] and if they have state schools [they do].
When the speaker was finished, we talked a bit about hospital shadowing [which will be next week for me!], and what all we have to do for that. I am pretty nervous, because everyone is saying that your spanish level needs to be a but more than beginner in order to work with the patients.

The final activity of the night was going out to a traditional Argentinean restaurant and eating!!! I ended up ordering a bowl of what looked like cheese for fondue. It was actually corn, pumpkin and cheese, and suuuper delicious. :)))
I actually saw a few people eating the same dish, so I feel like that was a really good
experiences [even though i passed up the beef, which is what Argentina is known for.]. I've actually been toying with the idea of trying meat during this trip, because Argentina is really proud of their beef. I don't know if I can pass up such a great opportunity... :/
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! :)

Okay, the same thing is happening... I am suuuper tired and about to fall asleep. Plus, the amount of spelling/grammar errors I am making right now is ridiculous. blegh.

night time.
Buenas Noches!
