i really fell behind here. i cant even believe its may, hell middle may, where the fuck did april go? i leave 2 months from tom. :( unbelievable. ive lived here for 3 months. i have lived in chile for 3 months. in the other fucking hemisphere for 3 months. believe yet? cause i sure fucking dont. wow.

idk whats happened since i last wrote really, well waaaaaaaaaaaay back when on the 29th of april i started my volunteering program, its called programa calle and we go to valpo, make bread with manjar and then go to different stops around vina. i went with a girl named lily and gloria. to be honest i was really scared, i had no idea what it was gonna be like to talk, in spanish, with homeless people, i feel so bad now for being weary of them. i have met amazing people. they are soooo happy and appreciative. they just smile and want to talk to u, tell u about their lives, families, past, and hear about you and america and know how ur friend obama is doing ha. it feels so great to help them, but even better really to just meet such different people but see how happy and content with life and how they really appreciate everything. its just amazing.

then that thurs i went to sams house and we made cookies and it was deliciosoooooooooo. that night my bro invited me out too for the first time really and it was exciting, but i was going to la serena the next day early so i had to pass him up.

soooo then i went to la serena!!! that was a great trip with vanessa and elizabeth. it took us like 10 hours on bus and then we went to hostel maria, it was cute with a garden, we figured out what we wanted to do and just wandered around town that day, went to gabriela mistral museums. then sat we went to vicuna, a really cute small town kinda like olmue, it was so pretty, we stayed in a cute hostal that was just a house, but we had all upstairs, it was a great great place. we made dinner and then went to an observatory out in the valley to see the stars. that was one of the coolest things ive ever done, we saw so many things and the guy just answered all my questions, i was so happy i was learning so much and it was cool and it was in spanish! woooo. it was cool too cause apparently i cant see lots of those things from the northern hemisphere so that may be the only time i ever do. so that was just unbelievably cool. then sun we went to pisco elqui and on a pisco tour and had a cute lunch and then walked through the bvalley and vineyards to monte grande, it was so so gorgeous and like a painting.

ummm then that week i cant say anything too out of the ordinary happened, just classes, salsa, volunteering. thurs i went to eat greek food with kathleen (who we ran into on the road with italo and lufe...awk) and vanessa and went to sarahs bday party at her house, that was cute, then just went to a bar to chill. then fri i went to aerobox wooooo and um then that night we went to another beach party and i got way too drunk. it was so much fun tho. we just danced alot and there werent tons of awkward dancing moments hah. paul finally got the come save me look thing down so thats good. and then sat i went to a around the world food thing at the middle/high school with vanessa and kathleen, it was yummmmmy. then we went shopping and i just hung out at home. then sun i got my mom flowers for mothers day and made her a card and it was so cute cause she got so happy and started getting teary eyed and she hadnt even read the card yet, she was just like " o i have to go upstairs and show ur dad" it was so cute. o sat night i forgot we had "family" dinner for mothers day with all kninds of family.

then this week, um i actually had hw which was dumb, but also encouraging cause my mom checked over a paper and found like no mistakes, that made me really happy. tues we went to salsa, wasnt really feeling it that night, wed did work bleh, thurs i left for argentina! i cant write more now tho, so that will come.

im tired.
