Going somewhere....
So, I'm about to head off with some brits to some small town in the mountains, and I don't know the name of the town or the mountains. It's gonna be a 5 hr trip by bus and we're gonna arrive at 5 in the morn. But we may be staying in the home of the witch doctor or something...yeah.
Today was a good day. I slept in, made french toast, then went to talk to a prof and practice reading Spanish aloud (I go to her weekly cuz I really can't read anything aloud in any language except poetry in english). She said I've gotten better. Yea!
I have no classes friday, so I went out last night to this club nearby, Pulque (A-pulkay), and had some beer with some americans from my pronunciation class and their mexican buddies. There was some good ska playing and we talked a bit about how fun it is to watch mexican dance to it. Now, mexicans kick-ass at mambo, rumba, salsa and such, but ska kinda throws 'em off. There was this large, somewhat-mash-pit at the front of the stage that somehow never got going.
The clubs cool though. It's small and hot, has mini-couches, and flags, scarves, and such hanging on the ceiling. They also have shishas (hookahs) of peach or apple flavor, which are cool. The ceiling drips once in a while though - right over the couches. All in all, a good, if not wet, time.
