Leaving...
Girl update: She's a scientologist. Definitely not. In other news, Raphaela and Maura keep sending me messages about visiting and staying at their houses.
I'm leaving Araçuaí tomorrow to go to a big punk show on a farm in one of the rainforest states. I'll miss the Jesus is Good gas station next to my house, the motorcycles, the hot sauce, the alcohol-filled coconuts, the constant joking, the get-the-American-to-eat-weird-shit sessions, the bad music, the nightly barbecue parties, and of course my family. It was amazing having people who really cared and an actual place. I'll miss this town and the people a lot... it's been an interesting two weeks and I already have plans to visit everyone at school for a couple days later on.
Last night we bounced between Bom Burger and the bar. The Brazilians taught me how to drink a plate of flaming cachaça... by lighting your fingers on fire and then sticking them in your mouth! Bom Burger has amazing burgers with corn and potato that took the drunk edge off before we got Tiago out of a tree, checked to see that the military police had left, and then crashed.
