I’m #$%&ing tired!




As I write this it is almost 11pm and I haven’t slept in like 30 something hours.  I had a final in my Chilean history class today and an essay that was due for my Latin American cinema class and, since I’m kind of a procrastinator, I left writing the essay and studying for the test until last night and ended up not going to bed.  My bad.  I’m glad to almost be done with classes.  Tomorrow I’m leaving with 3 others to Punta Arenas, a city in the way south of Chile.  I’m really excited to go!  Our bus to the airport leaves from Vina at 5am so I have to get up at about 3:30, yay!  Sleep is overrated anyways!

 

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!  Our group had our own Thanksgiving down here with our host families on Friday.  MY host dad and host sister came with me.  We each brought something and shared a part of our American culture with our Chilean friends and families.  There was like 90 people, so it was a pretty good sized thanksgiving dinner.

 

This past month of November

the six of us guys here participated in a “no shave November.”  I also got a tattoo, but it’s fake—just henna, and I shaved so I no longer look like a bad-ass.   

 

I’m gonna have to be done because I’m exhausted.  I just wanted to post before leaving.  I come back to Vina on December 8th.   

I'll post sometime soon after I get back.
