Comfort

Cutest thing ever? I think sooo..



I've discovered comfort in Chile since the last time I posted. I'm the kind of person who likes to keep to themselves. I don't party, I only socialize with a close group of people on a regular basis, I stay within a specific comfort zone, and I like to be lazy and comfortable. I figured out how to do that here. First of all, you can't watch online episodes here, I think I already mentioned that. So last night I figured out how to rent movies on itunes (best idea ever, last night I rented 'The Backup Plan'--good movie), it's cheap and easy. I also started something close to a sugar craze yesterday. I found a mini mart right by the school and bought pepsi (they have pepsi here but not other pepsi products), and a ton of other candy. Not to be eaten all at once of course. Ok I ate a snickers on the way home but I deserved that after the first day of classes. I rented another movie tonight called 'Babies,' I've wanted to watch it forever so I downloaded it today (it takes two hours) so I could watch it tonight. Tomorrow I don't have class until 4 or something like that so I am so looking forward to my movie and my snacks and staying up late (by myself--you learn to value alone time when there is four kids in the house.) and enjoying myself. Now all I need are my besties. I feel lame telling people that while I'm in Chile that THAT is what I get excited about but give me a break, these last 2 weeks (yes TWO!) have been tough. I'm discovering what works for me. I will branch out later..tonight, it's just be and pure comfort.



I suppose since it was the first day of classes today that I should talk about them. I had two, The culture of Chile and Grammar & Conversation. They kind of covered the same information today (Culture) so I didn't learn anything too profound. I think Grammar and Conversation will be the class that I'll dread. Just because there's only like 10 of us in the class and we're all expected to talk. Tomorrow I have one class (Cine-I think we just watch movies) but not till like 4 or some random hour like that. I'll let you know how that turns out. Until then, Ciao!
