I kinda wanted to cry when class was over today.
First of all, it was 3 hours long. Second, I sat next to the window and its effing COLD today, therefore I was wearing my coat, scarf, and mittens for the whole class. Third, my teacher's accent was so incredibly thick I don't think I understood ANYTHING. I just remember talking about different cultures and different areas of South and Central America. Fourth, every time he asked if we understood him, the whole class would say "si" and I'd weakly mutter "no."
Its great (hint: sarcasm) because when I'm uncomfortable or I don't understand something, I get suuuuper pissed. I'm normally such an easygoing person but I got pretty upset today. Ugh, it was so frustrating. The thing that sucks is I only have one textbook for one of my classes, the rest go off lecture! I hope we get some hard handouts for me to study or else I'm suuuper screwed.
On a good note: I didn't get lost coming home today!
I went home with Hayley and Lindsay and they were convinced we should get on a colectivo numero 7 en la calle Tulcapel. Well, we did it, paid 450 pesos, and made it home! SUCCESS! I think i finally understand which micro to take off la calle O'Higgens. I'll try that tomorrow.
Well. I thought we didnt have class tomorrow, but i guess the occasion is only for real Universidad de Concepcion (U de C) students and we don't count. Oh well. I still might get to drive around with my family and see more of this place :)
I want to record that last night was the first night in a long time I went to bed without music on. Thats because I got to listen to the pouring rain on the roof. I don't get that at home since my room is in the basement.
I love the rain but I can't wait for it to stop in September! Estudiantes will be able to do so much more outside.
OH and I also want to record I'm making amigos chilenos! Just what I wanted. Thank goodness they're patient with my bad spanish.
