Wow. Entries are getting sparce and shorter and shorter. Had my Spanish final today. (I have my Spanish oral test tomorrow). I think it went okay, but I never know. I studied a lot, but also think I need to take a study skills test, because sometimes my studying is not very effective. I went to my UBA class which didn’t start until about 35 minutes after it was supposed to, and then cut out early to arrive early to my test. During my test a protest went by (typical) and for a good portion of our test we jumped around to the drums and songs and loud speakers. (making the best out of a bad situation). I hope I did okay. After my Spanish class buddy and I drank a coffee (I have downsized one media luna and a small shot of expresso). Hurried home to a skype date. Worked on my paper a bit, and am going to head out to tango soon.

Went to casa del nino this morning, and made chocolate chip cookies. The kids love them! This was probably one of our most successful recipes. It was a crummy day so many of the kids didn’t even come to casa del nino, and that meant that we had enough cookies for everyone! Usually we only get to share with the older class. We made 99 cookies, and everyone loved them. I even got to eat a couple. Came back (our path was diverted by a protest…) and went to class (last nivel 4 class before the examen!) after class studied with a friend for a while and came home and “studied” more. Gaston and Jime (son and daughter in law of my host family) came over for dinner and we watched socias. Chatted a bit with stefy and then went to bed.
