(written yesterday afternoon)
Whew, it's hot. Right now I'm sitting in Gonzalo's car waiting for him to get some parts for the broken BMW. His family owns five cars between the four of them. (Really necessary, I know. Totally makes sense.) One is in Tempoal with his mum, and four are in Xalapa with him, his dad and his sister - Gonzalo's green Blazer that I'm sitting in, a tiny red two-door standard Chevy for good gas mileage, his dad's sweet white Nissan and the red BMW his sister usually drives, which broke down after El Gran Desmadre two weekends ago. Anyways, last time I came with him to get parts it took forever, and we were on his Harley (yeah he has one of those too) so I couldn't do anything but wait. So this time I figured I'd bust out the laptop and write while I wait. We'll see how much I get written in the time it takes these knob jobs to find the right piece this time.
So today I did my presentation for Español V (Spanish level 5) and I thought I did a great job, but Jesús was being a total dick to pretty much everyone today. We don't have our marks yet, but I went last and he immediately went into a speech about how we weren't supposed to read off of papers and how a lot of us didn't use enough of the assigned phrases we were supposed to. Okay Jesús, how about you don't assign us a ten minute presentation the day fucking before and ask us to do it from memory, using EIGHT phrases that we learned that day?! How about that, and then I won't read from a goddamn paper. I'm gonna be so pissed if I get a bad mark for trying my best with this stupid assignment.
Anyways, since I stayed up late and got up early to do all that, I didn't have time to write my paper for Eugen. I really hate not getting stuff done for her because she really doesn't like or trust me, and I was hoping to make this semester different. But as I was working on it between classes, my back started to hurt even more than it'd been hurting since the night before, and I couldn't sit down any longer. I tried, I really did, but I started getting nauseous from the pain and Sofia told me I should go home because I looked like I was gonna puke. So I called Gonz to come pick me up from school, and while I waited I walked around a bit and started to feel a bit better. I just can't be sitting in a chair for very long, which would have made class pointless. I really hope Eugen comes into school tomorrow for some reason so I can leave the assignment for her in the office rather than giving it to her next Monday when we have class again, but I doubt it because I'm pretty sure she only comes into class for the four hours a week she teaches our lit class.
Anyways, we're here now and Gonz brought some meat for us to cook for lunch at my house so as soon as I finally get the assignment done I'll feel much better. But my back still hurts and I have to pee and it's reeeeally freaking hot in Xalapa today so I'm just kind of antsy.
Oooh, according to the news on the radio, Hillary Clinton is in Mexico.
Man, I want to keep writing, but all I want to write is "I have to pee" over and over again. My bladder can be super distracting.
