Finally... it rained!

It rained for the first time (that I can remember) here last night. My host mom explained that every year at the end of August they have a big storm and it has a name, I just forget it at the moment. My classes are still for the most part incredibly boring but I like reading for them because that's where I do most my learning, I believe.

Yesterday we went to MALBA, the museum of Latin-American art (definitely, definitely not to be confused with NAMBLA, the North American Man-Boy Love Association). It was a really cool place and it didn't have as much art as I thought it would but I've overheard cultured people speak with eachother and I'm pretty sure it is the quality, not quantity of art that's important. That's hearsay, though- completely inadmissible.

Friday we go to El Tigre, and if there isn't atleast one tiger there I'm going to be dissappointed. I can't imagine there won't be atleast one, though, so I'm excited for the day trip. And football starts Saturday (actually, Thursday night. I'm on top of it). This week will be busy with the trip and my first solo attempt at working for the PR Firm Colombo-Pashkus, but it'll all be worth it when I'm chilling in the bar watching Georgia beat Okie State... I hope.

I'm going to try and start to write some postcards that I found yesterday at the Museum. Yeah, postcards are definitely outdated but I think they're probably a little more effective at showing people you care about them than Facebook Chat (again, just something I overheard from other people).

Be easy!
