Ok, so this week was Semana Santa (lit: Holly Week but is like a way to celebrate Easter) so there were more like a 1000 processions all around this ridiculously insignificant country. This is our most religious celebration
Act 1: SemanaS SantaS
So, my school had like a sports tournament last week.
Nicky is shamely a goofball when it comes to sports so she had her butt lazing around the sofa.
This Easter week the non-catholical people don't have a shit to do.
Thanks to the processions which are made in the very middle of the railroad thousands of ppl couldn't go through for the hours the processions last.
Here's some pics of guatemalan processions (powered by Google):
By some students
Our carpets are very famous thanks to:
a) the fact they're hand-made
b) ppl can devotedly spend 3 days making them (no kidding, is day and night)
c) they're made of real flowers.
d) the excessive abuse of colours that don't match (nah, that's me)

beautiful aren't them? They're like... a national pride? well, too bad they get completely ruined right after the priest passes through :,(
Act 2: El Salvador
I went to our neighbour country, El Salvador this week and we went to the beach (don't think I'm telling were) and God... IT WAS HORRIBLE!!! For those who don't know I hate hot, sunny, sandy and salty places. In other word: Beach. I spent there for 3 days and I was already going MAD. It was hot like shit and I spent in the room with the air con on. I had to go out in the heat for breakfast, luch and dinner, then go back to my cold room which made me have like 10 nosebleeds °~° and the worst part: THE POOL'S WATER WAS FRIGGIN WARM!!! I was going mad.
Well... that's basically what happened to me this week. I still feel like I'm burning ;_; and I'm pissed because I spent the holly week being fried instead with laptop-san. And I'm going back to school this Tuesday.
