Internship:

-I got the internship! My boss even gave me keys to the building so I can come in and out as I please. Very exciting.

I learned how to get there all by myself..its a good 45 ish minute transit. I take the subway that’s 2 blocks away from where I am and then I take that a few stops and make a connection to another subway and then go a few more stops and exit. Then I cross the street and turn to the right go down a block to this really old narrow building with a really creepy elevator and bam. There I am. At the national organization for journalism and journalists of argentina!

I even kinda sorta made a friend. Theres another girl that’s doing an internship so maybe we’ll become friends and ill actually have someone to hang out with. Apparently here to graudate from the university (at least hers) you need to have 3 months of interning, which is pretty cool.

-ive only been there for one day but ill be working there 3 hours ish a day in the morning at 10 (meaning I leave here at 9 and wake up around 8) and then ill be there until 1. I do that everyday except Fridays when I have the seminar.

Seminar:

-first day of class today!!

I must say…a four hour class is pretty hard to sit thru, luckily the prof is really fun.

He;d go on and on about how creativity and imagination is the most important thing to capture the attention of anyone. This is grad class and we had an exercise of combining two FAIRY TALES and turning it into a new fairy tale with elements of both. Sooo we had to do Cinderella and the flute guy that charms rats (I forget the name in English) soo the story that we came up with in the group I was in was that cinderellas mice turned mutant by eating some bad cheese and grew crazy huge and prince charming wanted to rescue Cinderella but being a poor rich boy he hired the flute guy. He comes and starts playing his music on the roof charming the mice and making Cinderella fall in love with him so she starts scaling the house to get to the roof.. prince charming sees this and isn’t pleased so he goes inside the house to get Cinderella…the mice kill him. So the flute guy puts on the princes clothes, since the mice were on his side, and he and Cinderella go ot the castle…with the giant mice as the court and the lost children that the flute guy has at the end of his original story (who followed him on his Cinderella mission in our version) are adopted by Cinderella and the flute guy after they married and they live happily ever after in the town that only allows them, giant mice, and kids.

Hilarious.

The girl I was sitting next to was very nice too. Incredibly friendly and told me about some cool history books about argentina and where I could find them and stuff… ill need to go on an adventure.

I then had to wait for the bus and got on it…but then I started freaking out thinking I might of gotten on the wrong one….which luckily I dindt. And then I sat there for an hour closely paying attention to everything until I got off where I needed to and walked back to my grandmas.

Other stuff:

Being here is very frustrating, though that’s all im gonna say here about the matter …

20 ish days and things will hopefully get better if they don’t by then.

Oooh and I need to keep having to wait to get my tattoo…its been postponed to this coming week. Getting sooo anxious about it. But that’s okay..gives me more time to prepare for it…tho I think that will only result with me building it up way too much in my head.

Anyways.

That’s all for now!
