Since the last time I updated, the following things have happened.
- I took my 2nd midterm in the UBA. I still don't know the grade for it (nor for the first one, which I took about a month ago now...), but I think it went well. Here's hopin' my grades are high enough that I can skate out on the final exam.
- My good friend Ariel came from Córdoba to visit me and Bianca here in Capital. He's staying until at least the 17th, maybe even longer.
- The only thing I have left, academically speaking, is a Latin final.
- I went to the Museum of Natural Sciences. It was neats.
- I also made a trip to see a Russian Orthodox church, the Basilica of the Most Holy Sacrament, the Plaza of San Martín, the Torre de los Ingleses, and a memorial to the fallen soldiers in the conflicts in the Falkland Islands.
- I discovered a guy who sells awesome ice cream for 3 pesos! That's about 75 cents American, and there's one scoop each of 3 different flavors- dulce de leche, vanilla, and strawberry.
- I won a contest in Flacso called "The New Word I Learned." What we had to do was write new words we'd learned here in Argentina in a notebook and the student who put the most words won a prize. And I won! They said I was the first person to put more than 150 words, which I was more than a little bit proud of. :)
- I'm more excited than ever to get back to Indiana and my family and friends there!
