Today was our last day of spanish intensivo as they call it, and it certainly ended with a bang. Yesterday we had a huge test incomparable to any spanish test I have taken so far in my life. Today we each had to do a ten minute presentation in Spanish, my topic of discussion; free trade between Chile and the rest of the world. I was struggling to come up with a presentation in english lets just say that. But yay the class is finally over and I have a weekend to enjoy before the real classes start. I am definitely not looking forward to that. After class today we hung out, ate lunch and watched Ned play soccer for one of the chilean intramural teams which was super cool. After heading back to vina we stopped for a girafa at the local bar and then walked around til we found a bakery. A couple of pastries and loaves of bread later we headed for the long walk home (about 45 minutes). As for tonight its off to a BBQ and then probably clubbing somewhere. We were hoping to hit the slopes this weekend but that kind of fell through. maybe next weekend. Instead we are heading to the sand dunes and beach tomorrow. I guess that is all for now. Los dias vuelan como el viento y cada dia mas rapido.
P.S. Highlight of the week definitely goes to meeting my first Chilean that has been to Shotgun Willy's.
