Wow

So today was quite eventful... mi and the people in my group went on a tour of the all the campuses in Valparaiso/Vina del Mar that belong to my school and we did that all morning. I absolutely LOVE our group leader... his name is Ricardo and he is freaking awesome... SO FUNNY! Anyways we went on a tour which is pretty sweet... he protects us and always makes sure that we are safe... and he was responsible for the whole tour so we got prime seats for everything!

So after that Ricardo told the bus driver to just drop us off by the casino... and we pretty much got ditched hardcore. No one knew where to go or where we were and we didn't know how to ask someone for directions.. and hell, I DON'T EVEN KNOW THE ADDRESS TO MY HOUSE!!!! Haha.. so we eventually found our way to the tourist area of Vina and got some Empanadas and ice cream and then went to the mall... its magnifico!! Very huge and to my disappointment ... the prices of clothes are not cheaper than Canada. However, I FOUND A VICTORIA SECRET OUTLET.... you know what that means!!!!!!!!!!! ;) haha for those of you who know me... I have a tendency to overdo it in that dept.

Anywho's... I came back home after the mall and chilled out and ate lunch and enjoyed SIESTA con mis hermanos (my brother and sister)... and we sat around and talked for hours which is really, really good practise for me. THEN... at 7 all the students met up at casa central and we went to a concert en the pier where all of the boats and cruise ships come in... absolutely amazing.

Everything about it was just so... CHILEAN!! It was absolutely amazing. So much fun! Then we wanted to go out for drinks after but a couple of the girls forgot their ID's so we decided to go tomorrow night instead.. so me and Hannah and Allison took the micro to Vina home by ourselves which is definition SKETCH... and then I had to walk to my house by myself... and I think someone was following me... so I took off my shoes and booked it all the way home... up 50+ steps but I was so afraid!! I learned my lesson... never ever taking the bus home at night again!!!! ahhhhhh... tomorrow will be another day with a new adventure!!! xoxo
