A Semester in Santiago de Chile: yet another week

Hello all!

It’s Sunday once again, so I’m going to tell you all about my week.

So: school and gymnastics as usual!

On Tuesday some of the intercambios went to the centro, now we fiiiiiinally have a Chilean ID and we got to skip a couple of hours of school too! : ) Oh and we stopped to have some ‘breakfast’ at Starbucks. : )

On Friday Catherine, Lea and I did some shopping on Irrarazaval (a street close to Lea’s house). I went to Lea after gymnastics and we watched the hunger games with her host siblings. Saturday morning we went grocery shopping and then made ‘Älpermakaroni’ for lunch. It turned out really great and every one enjoyed it!

Later we went to my house and talked some with my host parent. On the way we went to Plaza Egaña and Lea played some piano for a while - I really love listening to her play and watching the people walking by and just relazing for a while! At night we had a party – it was fun again and I got home at 3ish in the morning.

Today I got to see my host parent’s bakery, it was really cool! They only make two kinds of bread, but lots and then sell it to schools all over the city…

I also bought peanut butter on Thursday and me and the boys have pretty much eaten the whole thing… : ) I also showed Andreu how you can eat Peanut Butter with Jelly and he like it a lot!

So the FIFA world cup of soccer will be in Brazil this year – it’s going to start super soon and everyone is pretty excited about it! In MC Deporte (sports) in school we’re going to organize some stuff, because at school we’ll watch like 4 games and they want it to be more than just the games. I think it will be pretty fun! Another good thing about the world cup is that now you can find lots of stuff that says ‘CHILE’ on it, we’ve already found a shirt and we’re looking for more! : )

Tomorrow is the start of yet another week of school… But really there’s only a couple more to go (like 7), so it’s not that bad! :)
