En Queretaro

I have arrived safely in Queretaro. All went as planned with the flights and such. We turned out to be the only UO people on the flight. We got through customs and immigration okay, despite the mishap of me saying that I know a little bit of spanish to the immigration officer, but then couldnt understand what he was saying. Oops. We all (or most of the students ended up getting on the same bus 8am to Queretaro) we all arrived in the station and got off. Then we stood in the station waiting for Pedro our resident director, because we all were nervous to call our familias. I ended up calling and she said she was leaving for church at 12. I tried to get in a group to share a cab, yet in reality we ended up with two cabs and three people. I volunteered to venture to my homestay alone. I tried to figure out where I was going, with little luck. But I was dropped off right infront of my house. I undid the locked gate and stepped into the patio. Diana is my señora. I caught them right before church. I decided to skip out on church because i was zonked. I unpacked in my new room, which is really the 14 year old boys room (complete with gun, dried snake spine i think, and other 14 year old boy prizes) I layed down to close my eyes and ended up taking a nap. For comida we had spegegtti and chicken with white sauce. It was fine but I wasnt that hungry. I gave them their gifts and they really liked all of them. A candle holder with beeswax candles, and an oregon rain drop and the favorite the pink martini cd. I sat down to read and a short while after the family jumped up because their crazy neighbor had fell. I read some more and then the next thing i knew i was woken up for our meeting at the school. We drove to the school and got our schedules and such. i turned down the chance to hang out with the extended family, because i didnt feel quite right, and was convinced i needed more sleep.
i feel like i am in a new city. i dont know the area i am in, and am a bit confused on where the tec. is in comparision to where i was last year. still just confused on all of it. I have a class at 8:30, one at 9:45 and one at 12:45 so I will have a bit of time to correspond unless my homework load is horrible. Hope all is well.
