Mission: Find a Bike
Lately I've gotten this crazy idea that I want a bike. I'm not really supposed to ride one because of my eyesight being absolute crap, but I still wanna give it a try. It's not that I can't ride a bike, I can. I just shouldn't. But I'm gonna do it anyway. I am so clever.
Went to see a guy about an old bike yesterday. It was a bit beaten up: needed some paint, a new steering without the rust stains and that thing on the back wheel was broken. The guy wants six hundred for the thing and I guess I'll give it to him unless I can find something cheaper. And finding a bike in this town is not easy. It's the town in this country where the most bikes are stolen, sold and bought each year so it's a fast carousel. And people would be surprised if they knew how much some charge for old bikes.
In other news, I'm struggling with school again. Had my first lecture yesterday and started reading the new book last night. It's called "La ciudad y los perros" by Mario Vargas Llosa and it's a bit hard to understand. Been researching for a while to find something that will help me with it, but so far no luck.
My stomach really hurts. But at least I'm not pregnant, whoohoo! :D
