FOOD!!!
Today is a chill day. I obviously blogged earlier this morning.
Let’s see what did I do today:
Eat yogurt with cereal (type of yogurt seen below)
shower, eat again (banana), played a strategic game with Emily, called 5 chances(translated by Emily). It’s a game similar to chess and connect four except its five. I hope this makes sense =).
Then the game ended and I hadn’t listen to music in a long time, in my iPod because Pandora doesn’t have internaitonal permission to play music yet. While listening to music, I took a nice nap. Apparently, according to Suzana,
I woke up from my nap and spoke to her then fell back to sleep. Odd because I remember waking up and the conversation but I don’t, I felt like I was in a dream. She doesn’t remember our conversation either because she fell asleep for a half hour. We were exhausted from our boring day and we were waiting for AIESECers from the LC to come and brief us about what is going to happen tomorrow. Lots of questions were answered!! The hostel is located at the school so all we need to do is wake up, shower, eat breakfast and start working! Fun stuff. We are being relocated there tomorrow morning!
This is our last night at this temporary flat so hopefully, I will still be able to blog but weekly instead of every day.
During the meeting with the AIESECers, I found out that I will not have a toilet but a loo.

Usually my mom makes food for me. I am known to either have my mom’s food from home and I don’t cook whatsoever!! At Baruch, I am known to get free food or look for free food. The fact that I actually cooked pasta with tomato sauce, yes something very simple and people actually like it, shows something. I can take care of myself but taken with the opportunity I liked to be taken care of. I also washed my dishes and washed my clothes today as well.
Tomorrow, I move in and I am super psyched.
To do list:
1. STILL BUY TOILET PAPER!!
2. Get sim card
3. Don’t wear short to work, only long pants
Notice: Boys holding hands are normal. Staring at foreigners are also normal. British English is used here. A lot of websites that I use for music, are not used here. =( Be prepared for monsoon season too, next week.
I just ate Dominoes pizza after working out for a half hour. The state I’m in is a dry state, meaning no alcohol. I feel like I’m forgetting a lot of things that I have learned already but I’ll remember as the days go by. OH, the Indian nod, which my roommate posted on my Facebook page. Indian head bobble.
I think that’s it for now. Oh yeah, talk to me whenever. Bonus points to initiating the conversation with me first. Its’ only the third day and I’ve been contacting people about updates. I wonder how it’s going to be in a week… It’s 10:45pm
