Relaxing

Today was my second day of classes and they went pretty well. I have two teachers so we had a new one today that we will have on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. She is kind of hard to understand, but I made due. There are some other students in the class that talk the entire time in English and I have a hard time concentrating. It was kind of annoying.

After class we went to the ISA office to do our homework and use the internet since ours at home is off and on. After that we just walked up and down Av. Cabildo and looked at some shops. We stopped at a Café and had some tostadas and something to drink. This was very relaxing. We just ate and talked about everything that was going on. It was good to just hang out.

When we got home we had to study for our quiz tomorrow. We have been learning a lot of vocabulary and lots of different verbs. Since we have been trying to talk in only Spanish all the time it is taking lots of practice remembering certain words. Since today was a relaxing day we looked at some tour guide books to figure out the places we need to go.

Our mom is a very good cook and everything we’ve had here has been delicious! She is also very funny and dinner has been really fun and great practice for our Spanish and to learn about the culture. The Spanish that we are learning here is very different than what they teach you in the United States and is stuff they only use in Argentina. Big learning curve when you are used to something different.

Not much for today, but time for bed! More tomorrow after my Tango and Salsa lessons.
