Today started rather poorly. I was late to school on the day of my first quiz in Spanish class! My roomie and I waited for the colectivo for 20 minutes until one finally passed full of passengers...and kept going! Waiting another 10 minutes, another -filled to capacity- colectivo drove past. Others waiting with us at the stop began to flag down taxis...I began contemplating the same...
Tuesdays and Thursdays my last class ends at 1pm. I resigned myself to domestic chores to start my weekend off right...
Upon arriving at my Buenos Aires home, I separated and bagged my laundry and dropped if off at a laundromat across the street. In Buenos Aires, laundromats wash and fold your laundry for you. They will even pick up from your home!
Next stop was the grocery store. I thought shopping in the states was hard! With all of my allergies I have to be extra careful and read the ingredients on anything I buy. Now I have to read everything in Spanish!
Going to Cafe Tortoni tonight with the SD City College group to see a tango show. If it's not too late I'll check back in afterwards...Chau!
