On October 6 (Tuesday) we received a new schedule from the school, they told us we only need to pick 8 our of the 11 classes to get grades for. Then the other classes we didn't have to go to, we could just work on our project for Mexican Culture. Fran came to my house after school and we studied for our spanish test.
I got to school and realized that I had almost NO classes on Wednesdays, just gym first period and spanish the 5th hour. Gym got canceled because my class had a big test so Simon, Caro, and I went to work at the computer room for the entire morning! But this new schedule didn't last long, it turns out that the teacher who told us we didn't have to go hadn't asked the director of the school-so now we have to go to class and sit there because we can't participate (it is very strange and we are still trying to figure out what they want from us). After lunch I went to my spinning class and then ran before returning home to put up my blog.
The next day after school we had lunch with my whole family at my house. Favio's aunt is a nun and she was going back to her house, so they had a going away party. We had mole (traditional salsa/chili type thing from the town Puebla). Then Caro, Mariana, and I went to watch a soccer game at Valla (school). After we went for tacos then Mariana brought me home.
The next day Mariana and I were heading to school and we got stuck in the middle of the intersection for 10 minutes waiting for a bunch of religious bikers to go by. After school Caro, Fran and I went to the mall for a little while, then I took a taxi home. At 10:30 Fran and I met up and took a taxi to Velvet (discotec right next to ego). We got there and tons of people we are the door, I met a guy from the Dominican Republic and he said he was an exchange student to so he took my hand and I grabbed Fran and we got to the front of the group and they said they were letting more people in; but we told that we were exchange students so he said ok go ahead! Tons of people from my class were there and I met some of my friends's friends. We spent the night dancing, then we both went back to my house.
Fran slept at my house and Caro came to house the next morning and we went to Tzintzuntzan with my family. We got there and we cooked a Tuna Pasta Dish-which turned out to be really good. We hung out the rest of the night. Caro, Fran and I watched RENT on my lap top, and Fran asked if we could put Portuguese subtitles up, so I did. Caro and I were laughing because she got REALLY excited but after 20 minutes she just fell asleep! (verdad Fran? jaja)
The next morning we had breakfast and despite the cold we went in the boat. Fran, Caro, and I piled on the doughnut (pull behind the boat) and we went tons of times, getting flipped off and thrown into the lake. I tried the "table" but I didn't get to get all the way up on it because a storm came-but another time. We headed back with Caro and I on the doughnut, then it started to pour and the rain was hitting us so hard! We finally got back and ran and jumped in the pool-it was like a hot tub. We played cards then headed home.
After school on Monday we went to Applebee's because it was Mariana's birthday. Then Fran, Astrid, and I went to the movies. Later that when Regina and I were skyping with my dad we heard a crash and Regina and I had to check the whole house-turns out it was just Regina's guitar falling over.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Halfway!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I didn't go to school the next day because I woke up with a wicked headache. I had planned on going to school late, but Isaura wanted me to stay home the whole day to make sure I was really ok.
The next day after lunch I met Maria, Liz, Max, and Caro at Maria's house and we headed to a lounge to watch the Mexico futbol game. After we headed to a Greek Taco place and we were goofing around and I was running and took a corner to fast and cut up my knee and elbow pretty bad! We met our friends Guillermo and Miguel for tacos and lets just say no one forgot about me falling, not to mention they found it hilarious that tacos there were called gringos. I went to Caro's house and slept there.
We went to a girl in our jazz class's house to work a little on our dance. She told us it was food too, but we didn't get any so we left and cooked breakfast back at Caro's house then I went home with Isaura and packed for Puerto Vallarta (the beach we were going to with Rotary). Then Favio took me to the bus stop, he is trying to teach me tongue twisters in spanish-they are really hard to remember! Then at 4:30 all of us from Morelia and a couple other excahnge students got onto the bus and we spent 15 hours driving to Puerto Vallarta! It should have taken us 8 but we picked up all of the other exchange students.
We arrived at 8 am in Puerto Vallarta and changed into our bathing suits, then went right onto a boat. We stopped and some people went snorkeling, but I didn't go because they didn't have a lot of equipment so I let those who hadn't gone before get a chance. Then we went horse back riding up to a waterfall and then went swimming there for a while before going back on the horses back to the boat. I even got my house so a gallup type thing-it was really fun! We had lunch then headed to the hotel, showered, and had dinner.
We went to breakfast then we went into the sea. After we moved to the pool and we hung out there the whole day! That night we went to a discotec and it was super crowded, but really fun!
We got up the next day, packed and headed to the center of Puerto Vallarta. We shopped and ate for a little bit before heading home. We arrived in Morelia at 8:30ish and Isaura picked me up. We went shopping for some things before heading home. I was greeting by a package from my family, including some candy that I have missed so very very much.
And to explain the title, there is a popular reggaeton song and we changed it to "Veo Veo Morelia es la mas chingoda ve lo que es!" We are the craziest exchange students so we decided to make a song about it!
