Second attempt at a Discoteque: Failed again

First and foremost I have to say how much I love my madre chilena because when I got home tonight with Vlado I found a heater she puts in my bed at night and it was such a blessing because I'm FREEZING.

Second in importance, I caught on to another Chilean word today: "cachai?" which is an American slang equivalent to "ya know?". Me gustan las palabras chilenas.

So after once (again, pronounced own-say, their mini-dinner) the family and I just hung out in the living room. For the record, I love just hanging out in the living room with them. They always ask me if I'm bored and are surprised when I say, "No, estoy contenta".

Well we waited for Vlado's friend to call him and pick us up. He finally did around 11 and I learned that the night life really doesnt start in Chile till past midnight. Which they really call 24 since they use 24 hour time. We went to a bar/hangout place called Bonito. It looked suuuuper sketch on the outside, like, dirty and garages, but it was very legit on the inside. Nice place. Lots of music and smoke which probably didn't help my already dizzy head. Vlado's friend ordered drinks for all of us so we all had a pina colada while waiting for another of Vlado's friends. I just chatted with them about American movies and such.

I don't know if the person never showed or said she couldn't make it, but we left to go hang out with two other guys that Sebastian knew (Vlado's friend we were with, who drove us).

Too bad I felt super dizzy and light headed the whole time that I had to return home :( I really wanted to go to the discoteque (where everyone else went when Vlado and I left).

We took a cab home, which is rediculously expensive here. A micro or colectivo is 400 pesos or less than one American dollar. The cab cost 5,000! which is like, 10 American dollars! We couldn't have taken a micro or colectivo though because they don't run from 11pm to 6am.

Well now I'm sitting in my bed bundled up, blogging and chatting and still feeling awfully dizzy.
