school today sucked...it was just a long ass day
but after school was sweet...michelle, paula, gary and I went to this place to buy Michelle a pipe and then to another place to buy me a hookah. so we get on the micro (public buses) and we take the 321, this awesome bus that's like cheaper than the rest (literally about 40 cents) and we sit in the very back and it's like up a couple of steps and so the seats are higher and when you go over the speed bumps you catch air, so its like fun to ride this bus. well it took us in a complete circle and did not turn where it was supposed to. so basically we spent 45 minutes on a bus getting absolutely nowhere. so we got off, went to portal to catch a cab, and as always it was a nido convention at starbucks so we had to talk to some people to not be rude. finally we get the cab and go down to this place where we can buy the shit like half an hour away from where we live. when we got there we met up with our friend manolo who graduated last year. so michelle bought her thing and then manolo took us to the place to get my hookah and it was like back in the freakiest alley and it seemed like it took forever to get there, but we turn the corner and there's this huge pure egyptian/hookah store. it was so awesome. i go in, ask her how much they cost in general, the most expensive one she had was only $40 and these were really nice hookahs. so i was like okay, there must be something wrong with them...and like i look, no defects or anything, its airtight, i dunno i was kind of sketchy though, but michelle was like yeah, its just cause its chile, so yeah. i got one that was about $40 american dollars like 22,000 pesos. and i got that included with a few different flavors of sheesha and coals and a wind-protectant cover thing. totally awesome, and the hookah's really cool...the glass is like clear and it has little swirls on it. so yeah, i finally got a hookah, i'm starting the craze here...
then we went back to gary's house...freaking tons of little kids (not really little, but his brother's in 7th grade, so 7th and 8th graders) just like running around and freaking out. so finally they leave, we're just hangin out talking, telling jokes and stuff. really relaxed night, and i had to come home kind of early cause i have to do practice SAT stuff in the morning at like 8 so i gotta be up kinda early.
BUT...
michelle's aunt has a beach house and michelle and this whole crew are like badass surfers, so they invited me and paula to go up to the beach house with them tomorrow and stay the night and just like hangout for the weekend at the beach. its gonna be so awesome...its like michelle, her sister nicole, her boyfriend oscaño, gary and his whole family, maya, manolo, me and paula, plus the lady who owns the house (madeline a.k.a. jo) so we're taking my hookah and the pipes and everything and they're gonna surf all day and im gonna get a tan and just chill on the beach and then at night we're gonna sit out under the stars with the new hookah and everything and relax away from this damn city where we'll actually be able to breathe. then sunday morning, more surfing and then head back up here. its gonna be awesome basically.
so i guess thats all thats really going on, oh and the incident with Bartel yesterday, we'll just say we both ended up in tears...it's all resolved now though (mrs. bartel is my english teacher)
so i wont be here at all tomorrow and half of sunday. and all next week im on my own (parents are going to peru) get some
today's day 36 for gary's bet
and that is all.
