post-sickness

Hola! hahaha. I looked back at my last entry and I sound like a total sickey.. 2nd hospital visit and all. No, I've actually not been sick at all really except the two really bad times. Food poisoning and that flu-whatever. It's over though!
Since then... I got my first BIG paper back... I got a 6.3/7 which is REALLY good by chilean standards. I was so happy. 7 is only if u are a genius. They say that if you get a 7, your not just really smart.. you are a genius. I'm sure they vary it from class to class and sometimes consider whether you're an extranjero (foreign exchange student) or not too. But I was super pumped!
Also, I took my first big test in poesia... BEGHHH. That on the other hand may be bad news... we'll see. I blame getting sick on Sunday tho ; ).

Allie and I had margarita night the other night... just the two of us at the mexican restaurant in plaza nunoa. SO good. Also noted is that Santiago margaritas do NOT equal U.S. margaritas strength-wise. I had two and was really feelin' it afterwards... omg. So anyways, just to warn you! Tia Sara told me a story about a girl who was in her house a few years back made the same mistake only with 3 margaritas... it was bad news. Apparently, she ended up yelling their names outside their apartment of that time and Alberto found her the next day all rolled up outside hahaha.

Then Friday... went shopping with Monica and also got my haircut... BANGS for the first time since junior high! Ahhhh. At first the stylist gave me a seventies rocker chic hairstyle (kinda the shag that's popular here right now) but I asked her to fix it in a nice way hahaha. I like the cut... just'll be diff. Then later that night... out with Katie Hill's group of friends... super nice all of them. Ended up speaking a lotta spanish that night with this guy named frena. Inside joke: I looked like a deaf person. The guy's bday it was has an interesting story too and he can dance the samba like no other.

Today... went to Eduardo's bday (relative de mis padres chilenos) and that was fun... food=delish as always. I talked to the men about Obama some hahaha and then talked to Daniela for a lot of the time. Her bf is supernice too. He's an administration engineer.

Anyways... I had caffeine early... now it's finally wearing off. I'm pooped. Daylight Savings happened and we lost an hourr too! AHhhhh. And we spent a good long time figuring all that all again. lol

Buenos noches
