I woke up at around 10-11 this morning. Ahh it must have the been a big lunch & dinner I had yesterday!!! the family are still in Totoral. We didn't leave until 5:30pm. It was quite a boring day I had. - Just playing on my phone and watching some t.v- the winter olympics to be exact. I am Glad I start my Spanish Course tomorrow- that give me something to do in the mornings.
Monday 17th February 2014
Started my Spanish Course today- Talk about "information overload" - well it wasn't that bad for the first day. My teacher was nice. That afternoon I did my homework that Flor-my teacher at the Language School/Uni gave me. & In the evening the Older Brother-(Guille) of Mariano & Agus came around and I also met his Girlfriend Sole. I found it strange, because I did not know that there were/was other sibling/s to Mariano and Agus. Anyway they satyed for dinner and we had Empanadas and & Arabian triangles. they were nice.

This evening Sole and Guille invited me to go see-look through this Natural Science Museum.
It was really cool and interesting. I also - well we also had Lomitos for dinner they were delectable and filling! I didn't have a Lomito though. I had a hamburger.

Today I travelled to with Guille and Sole to a place called La Granja. We had lunch-Asado at Guille's Godmother's-(Claudia or Clau for short) house. she owned a Really adorbale puppy his name was Olly.
Friday 28th February - Tuesday 4th March
This weekend was a long weekend because of a carnival or something like that going on in the city for the two days before most schools started. I did not go to the festival, but I would have liked to. Instead I stayed with my host father as my host mother was in Totoral for the weekend visiting her Mother and looking after her because she was sick. Friday- I had my Last day of my Spanish course (I do not think I will do another one because of the Price!) I felt it went well I had a final exam/test. I think I did pretty well.
Saturday- 1st March I visited the Carlos Paz Yatch club. It was pretty nice. There was a regatta on that day. I took some photos and got my host dad to take some for me as well.
Sunday- 2nd March was a pretty laid back day I think I mainly watched tv and I Think I went out at one point- with my host dad and bought fruit and things for lunch. & After lunch I had a sleep.
Monday- 3rd March Pretty similar day to what yesterday was- tv, sleep and I think went for a little walk with "Little Agus" - the daughter of Mariana Guille's partner/wife. Actually I ALSO Think I visited the Carlos Paz Yatch Club and I got to see Guille's Yatch- He also said to me that some time he will take me out on it. That still has not happened-(I am witing this on April 6th 2014 Yes I have been Slack as with Updating my blog!)
Tuesday- 4th March Was pretty pretty laid back-from what I remember. & In the evening We -(Guille-Host Father, Mariana-His Partner, Little Agus, Guille-Older host brother, Sole-gf of Older host, Matias Other Brother of Guille- so Really my second "Older host brother", Mariano and I had an Asado dinner) it wasa De-elicious. Then Guille-Host Brother took me and Mariano Home.
Wednesday 5th March 2014
This I was the day I was supposed to commence school but I didn't end up starting because of the teachers beong on strike. So after I discovered that I walked to Mariano's School/College so that I could get a ride home because I forgot my bus card and keys...
Once Susana and I arrived home again she went out to to work and I had something to eat and then I vacated the house and ventured out to Av. Rafael Nuñez to watch Sole's Aerial Silks class. It was very intruiging, but the warm down stretches that she and the other girls had to do looked Very painful! Especially for people who are not flexible *clear throat* - Me!
Later on that day I went with Susana to see places that have tango and salsa lessons avaliable After that I went to a horse-riding place to find out how much it would be - if I wanted to do it - In the end I decided not to because it is very expensive.

After school today I bussed to the city with a classmate of mine Luz Lopez - she speaks pretty good english and understands me sometimes too! Because she has been studying english for 6 going on 7 years!!. we proceeded to search for items that I needed for school I bought a Hoody, a T-shirt and some stationery. Following that Luz & I made our to a Mc Donalds and had a Mc Flurry each. When we had finished them we walked to Luz's Mum's work so that we could all take the same bus to get home.
