(no subject)
ok, well here i am in chile, in rengo to be exact. if you don´t know, this is where i lived when i was here on exchange. it´s diffrent being back here, my old classmates aren´t here, and sini isn´t here. it´s rengo, but it´s not really MY rengo. i´m staying with my friend toro and i had been spending every second with her(her decision, not mine) and well, i was getting rather annoyed with her. i went out alone this afternoon and something about it is better. this is how it was when i was here, walking around to places alone, i wasn´t a visitor last time i was here, and it feels more right being here like this again. most people aren´t here, but i have been told that a lot of the college kids come back on weekends, so everywhere i go i am pretty much waiting to here "kelly?!"
i also realized i haven´t really spoken any english at all in like a week and a half. that´s never happened before, i have to admit. last time i was here sini was here, and oh man did we ever speak a lot of english. it´s weird. i can see how it is effecting me now, i can only imagine how it would have been for 6 months.
or how it would have been if i had had a good family...
on that note, i say them both yesterday and the day before, it was nice, they were happy to see me. nothing has really changed, they still don´t really talk to me, but whatever. yesterday i wanted to go see sini´s family after mine, but they asked me to go to their son´s house with them. i said yes and went along like always, but there was something empowering in knowing this time i was going not because i had to like before, but becasue i was making the decision to.
not sure what else to say, but i still have like 10 minutes to kill before i meet toro to go visit my friend jenny who just got in from santiago. i´m excited to see her, i bumped into her brother today and that was really nice, and now i actually get to see her. anyway, the rest of this post is just going to be a lot of rambling.
ooh, the 24 hour bus ride here. oh god. the first 6 hours were fine, but then i got sick, oh god was i ever sick. i´ll just say it was rather unplesant. crossing the andes was amazing though, good god those mountains are tall. i can see them here from rengo, but when you are in them it seems like the just go up and up and nothing else. the sickness though, definitly didn´t help...
wednesday i leave rengo for santiago. i have some people to visit there, and i´m going back to doing the whole touristy thing. i am actually looking forward to it a little, having a little more independence. or rather, having complete independence, and still having friends to visit when i get bored etc. ok, well i am down to like 5 mintues left, i bet i can entertain myself with facebook or something.
