An Easy Day

Today I had my second quiz at the University and it was quite difficult. School here is a lot more difficult than I thought it was going to be, but nothing I can’t handle. The stuff we are learning comes at us so fast and in large quantities that it is hard to keep up. I spend a lot of time studying which I would rather spend seeing the city. Today I was so exhausted after class that I just came home and took a nap until I had to do my homework.

Then we took a stroll to the supermercado and I got some crackers to snack on during class tomorrow. I also got some oreos that have dulce de leche (the best stuff ever) and banana flavored crème in them. I tried to chocolate milk and it was delicious. Every time I want to try something new, I don’t hesitate because I have not had anything here that I didn’t like.

The bad news is that the economy is terrible here and the government is constantly making changes that the locals do not like. The good news is that 1 USD equals 5.1 pesos instead of 4.5 pesos like it was before. So lots of shopping! :)

Tomorrow we have an afternoon trip to Teatro Colon where we will have a guided tour. More details on that tomorrow.
