Hey everyone!

Still loving Argentina! Classes are incredibly hard at Univ. Buenos Aires, but I am stickin in there. I have over 60 pages to read in Spanish of Argentine history every week...as well as my mkt class...on top of two other classes. But, I know it is going to make my spanish THAT much better. And, I have a 20 hour bus ride to Bariloche for my ¨spring break¨ today, so I have a while to read =). Also, UBA is ghetttooo. Going to the university is a cultural experience in itself...seriously. It is kinda funny too becuase a class gets interrupted about 2 times every session by extreme political student groups promoting their clubs and ideas. Sometimes, we are talking about drums and the whole shabang. Really kinda funny.

So, pictures here are my family that I live with: Mariana, and her 3 sons. It was Augustine´s 7th birthday, so we had a little fiesta at the house. Also, we went to this really cool tango rock concert in Palermo. It was awesome music and a neat scene. Obviously, tango is huge here, but it was a cool twist to the music. OH, and I think there are pictures of Julie and I in a park...which is one of my favorite parks where I go running sometimes.

Thats about it for now.. I am sooo ready for a break of the city, so Patagonia is going to be AWESOME!!! Bariloche is a famous ski resort there, but the snow isnt in yet until another 2 months or so...so it is supposed to be beautiful!

Me and the boys. Wow..they look happy dont they??

It looks as if you're still having a great time! I really enjoyed the pictures of your host family and of your C.U. gal pals in the program. Study hard and have a great time on your spring break trip! Love you much, Mamasita
