More like Malos Aires!
The air quality here really sucks… There are so many freaking cars and taxis and buses. I didn’t know this before, but there are 12 million people living in Buenos Aires. It’s massive. And it’s dirty!
In other news, Loni’s going to Iguazu this weekend with her program. I’m staying in the city and doing schoolwork and such because I failed to get my yellow fever vaccine. So, I’ll get it while I’m down here at some point and head up there with whoever wants to go. No rush, I’ve got four months. Mucho tiempo!
Last night we went to a board game-themed bar for one of Loni’s friend’s birthday celebration. It closed pretty soon after we got there. However, I did manage to get in a few games of BattleShips. So that was fantastic. We’re going to back, probably many times…
Yesterday I figured out my classes finally. I have classes only three days per week. Which rocks. And they shouldn’t be too hard, besides being in espanol. So they’ll be hard.
- Monday - 2PM - 5:30PM - Lenguage Multimedia
- about the internet, and the professor has USC ties.
- Tuesday - 2PM - 5:30PM - Social Marketing
- a lot of work, but will transfer back to USC for major credit.
- Wednesday - 9AM - 12:30PM - Television
- the professor is a television producer down here.
- Wednesday - 3:20PM - 6:50PM - Cuerpo y Fotografia
- not sure, really. but it makes my life easier. and should be fun.
So, not too bad. Although it takes me an hour and a half or more each way, so that extends my day a bit. But, I found a cheap pasteleria near school, so I can look forward to fresh medialunas and emapanadas every day.
I think I’m going to play basketball for the school on Wednesday and Friday nights. You hear that? I’m going to be a collegiate athlete! And with practice two days a week, you know we’re legit.
That’s it for now.
