I´m not really sure that that title has anything to do with this entry, except maybe for the fact that I´m not sure that this entry is actually going anywhere. Basically I´m bored and have nothing better to do than sit here and ramble for a little while.
So yeah, basically not much going on here... Went to Chichicastenango yesterday a little market town in the highlands. It was cool. Bought some suff, walked around a bit, nothing to exciting. The trip there was a bit scary though. We we´re definitely with a couple feet of a head on collision with a bus, and there were a few other close calls too, but we survived. It was a little unsettling to see that our driver didn´t even think twice about passing against oncoming traffic. Like literally we were passing cars inbetween the ones in our lane and the ones coming the other way. Also unsettleing was the bus upside down in the ravine at the bottom of a rather steep section of road that ended in like a 100 degree turn. But yeah, again, we survived with no real excitement to speak of.
soooo... what else can I ramble about??? Not much apparently. Had some creepy dreams Saturday night about Omish people staring at me from a hill. It was like their eyes were piercing my soul. Seriously, it was terrifying, and I woke up not be able to move which was even more terrifying.
ummm yeah. Spanish exam Saturday worth 75% of my mark. fun. But it does mean the start of only having class on Thursdays and saturdays, which will be nice. Well... it´ll be nice if I can think of something else to do with my time besides eat and spend money.
My money is better spent on things like Coachella, which I´m going to btw, I don´t care what it takes, I´m using that ticket.
K, that´s about it... umm... here´s a list of stuff that makes me think of Guatemala:
- men with large guns
- sweet bread
- beans
- bank line-ups
- Gallo beer
- Pollo Campero
- those little candies shaped like fruit but made of pure sugar
- super fresh fruit for breakfast almost every morning
- bimbo bread
- people trying to sell you stuff
- phone calls to canada for the same price as calling locally
- cell phones that cost the same as my dinner yesterday
- being hungry all the time
- volcanoes everywhere
- people carrying Jesus down the street
- scariest driving ever
