lunes y martes monday and tuesday

last monday here, is now over. we made pinattas (sp) in convo class then i did my presentation which went okay, my teacher kept interjecting with information, which was helpful, but not when i had already written my paper. it was an interesting experience. after school i had a nice chat with christian, a mexican student here at the tech that i had interviewed previously for my conversation class. then i headed home and eat comida with paw. after comida i finished up my thank you notes, all but the one for my family. and then finished off my nutella and loaf of bread. yummy. then i headed over to toastmasters, but was way early so i stopped and got some money, and i treated myself to a sweet treat again, pan con azucar. yum. i went to toastmasters and this time people talked to me! ahh.. scary. i had a long conversation with this guy who is working in queretaro and it was his first time at toasties. also with the general evaluator. the director of themes, or the table topics master, asked me if i would like to particpate in the temas, as they call them. ha.. i said no.. ha. maybe next year. came home and went to bed ready to start a busy tuesday.
today i am going out to lunch with my señora and my friend emily and her señora. they are friends and so are we so it works out perfecto. it is an italian resturant that supposably has good pizza.. yum.

guanajauto

i should be preparing to present my paper on the virgen of guadalupe but i have lost some of my motivation, and i think i feel pretty prepared, except for the spanish part which i dont know if that will help me to prepare even more. nearing the end of my trip, and starting to rap thing up... all except school which will go full blast until it is over, or the fat lady sings. i had a nice little vacation, in guanajuato. i saw so many things, i was a bit overwhelmed as i read throught the book but i managed to do everything i really wanted to do, in a relaxed atmposhphere. i had a blast hanging out with the seminarians, and we ate at really good resturants! overall it was a welcome relaxing change from what has been go go go go. it also was a bit of an adventure, i stayed in a hostel, and had to figure out where things were and such. this time next week i will be talking to you all, and not writing on this bloggy.

culinary delights

yesterday was a good day. i went out to waffles at the great waffle place with christy. we had a nice long talk then meandered back to the school of gaby to catch up with the group going to pedro´s reading. Pedro our resident director translated a play. and got some famous actor to read it. it was really interesting, but long and i didnt really understand a lot. then we were on our way home, and decided to walk by the crepe place. and alas, we had to enter for a crepe. we split a banana and chocolate, and a cheese and spinach crepe. SO GOOD. i went home, full of food. but very content.

a mexican outing

heres a classic case of mexican culture. so yesterday i came home and my dad invited me out to comida with the family and his cousin. i accepted, becasue i didnt have very much homework and was hungggry. we got in the car at probably about 2.30. drove for a while stopped at a couple stops, and finally made it to costco. we sat down outside and all shared a pizza. then we wandered around costco for a while coming out with eggs and a bathing suit. the whole excursion took a long time. we returned around 5.30. after that i went on a run. then headed over to coffee brown cafeteria and savored my one dessert of the day una maltada. and did my homework. then i came back and read for a couple hours, watched some TV ate cena. showered and went to bed. a nice relaxing day. today is the cooking class and harry potter! yaya!

yay an interesting post

in DF at the museum of... anthroplogy..


in queretaro on friday night, me waiting for pete and the girls i ended up hanging out with after the seminarians. it was elises 21st birthday the one by me.



this is before the flamanco preformance when we went to this waffle place. it was very cool!! all 60´s ish.





this is at the flamanco preformance on sat night in the centro.






i will not even try to catch up instead i will try and start again. so yesterday i came home to an empty house because my family was driving my sister to her camp. i ate comida and watched the amazing race. sweet! for dessert i had chocolate ice cream with peanut butter and nutella and peanut butter on toast. yum. then i tried to do some studying although the test i am studying for was a bit nebulous... i tried calling some people to find out what actually we were to be studying. everyone was out. i then tried calling people in my neighborhood to go out to coffee or something. once again everyone was out. I called jamie and she was home and agreed to go out to coffee or milk since she doesnt like coffee with me. we met in the middle and headed to brown coffee cafeteria.. ha. nice name huh. i had a latte and a brownie with ice cream yummmy. we had a nice long chat then i headed home for more studying.

update...

a bit of an update.
the past couple days.
wends. went out to comida with a couple girls, some from the 2nd session.

thurs. went home for comida then went to the centro to take a dancing class. it was pretty hard. we learned the cumbo, which i hear is a variation of salsa. then cristy and i hurried home to make arroz con leche with my sister. we ended up all in the kitchen (my brother his friend diego, my sister cristy and i) it was a fun time!
now i just sent off my history paper to a spanish expert who owes me some editing. and this weekend i will be working on my last paper, about a novel i read. it should be a fairly low key weekend consisting of a flamanco on sat, and a leyends tour tonight with peter.

sorry i have not been more consistant on this blogger lately.
