This and That

Time for an update. I just had my first day of class for the week (swine production at 8am and goat and sheep production at 1pm). Tuesdays I have oil seed production (which lasts four hours!! ugg!!) and Wed and Fri I have Spanish. Starting this week I'll be taking German at the University of Buenos Aires. I tested into level 6 which is two levels before graduate level. I've been studying a lot on my own and speaking with all my German friends but I seriously doubt I'll stay in that high of a class. I wasn't happy about getting up for an 8am but truthfully it's time to get back into a normal routine and sleep cycle. I'm trying to stay better organized this semester (as always). I enjoyed 10 days at home in July and had the opportunity to go to my cousin's wedding. Then my mom and sister came back with me for a short visit. We went to Iguazu falls (amazing) and after my mom went home my sister stay an extra week and we went to Chile. Overall I'm feeling pretty content right now. I like life in Buenos Aires and I have a lot of good friends already as the semester starts off including some really awsome flatmates. I can't wait to see what this semester has in store for me as I'm continually amazed by the new things I keep learning that I somehow missed the entire first six months. I'm actually thinking about going to veterinary school at the University of Buenos Aires because it would be free (vs around 100k dollars in the United States) and would allow me to experience more time abroad before I (eventually?) settle down. I have felt a little cut of from the states this week but perhaps that is a good thing.
