Aug 27th
I attended a conference on service learning today at the facultad de derecho—the law school. It was an interesting conference, but I couldn’t understand a lot of it. It rained all day, which was a bit of a bummer when I had to walk to my classes and such. I came home after the conference for a quick lunch break, and to warm up with some mate. I then headed to my Spanish class. I arrived early and chatted with the 3 other south Korean students who were there. We chatted for quite some time, because our teacher was not there. In fact our teacher never showed up, but later we found out that we were in the wrong room. So I missed my second day of Spanish class because I was in a different room. AHHH. I then headed to the oldest café in Buenos aires to meet a UO friend for coffee. She was an hour late to due the buses and the rain, so I had a lot of time to just stand. The café wasn’t all it cracked up to be, but I am glad I went to say I experienced the same thing as so many others before me. It was next to the tango museum which I think I will check out some day after class. I was going to go to a tango show with my oldest host sister but she called and said she couldn’t. I ventured home and did some grocery shopping, and drank some more mate, answered some emails, and chatted with my host sister who is now cooking dinner. I just got very tired, maybe because I woke up a bit earlier than usual 9am. But it would seem that I drank enough mate to caffeinate me for life. Hasta luego.
