Cheers to the Freakin' Weekend

I am a presentation away from it being the weekend! This week has totally flown by, but I am excited to finally have some free time. 

My accomplishments of the week:

1. Joining a gym! 

2. Figuring out the bus system (thanks to an awesome iPhone app) and getting around yesterday without getting lost.

3. Visiting my first museum here and getting in for free. 

Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires

4. Improving my communication skills with my host mom. 

5. Finally getting some good, authentic helado. Slowly becoming obsessed with dulce de leche. 

6. Sleeping in until 10am a few times. Much needed! 

7. Watching the Bachelorette episode I missed. (DRA-MA!)

8. Getting my laundry done without any complications or shrunken clothes.

9. Meeting up with my BFF Alex. Still can't believe we are living in the same city for a whole semester!

10. Signing up for tango tonight. Could be a potential disaster... wish me luck!!

11. Trying my first submarino. Basically hot milk and then you put a chocolate bar in it.. so freaking good!

12. Finding another spot to go out in Caballito. We were even able to recruit some of our friends from other neighborhoods to join us for bowling and drinks at Acatraz! 

And the failures:

1. Not bringing clothes/shoes that accommodate cold, rainy days. 

2. My first class. Tried an Argentine Literature class that could not be more boring. 

3. Walking an hour in the wrong direction to get to the museum.

4. Not knowing what I am going to say for my presentation in a few hours.

5. Scheduling classes and having to try 10 different classes at 3 universities before picking 4-5 that you like. Such a pain in the butt!

I am very thankful that I have had more accomplishments than failures in my second week here. So far so good! Let's hope I can keep this up!
