HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY AND GMA!

I switched houses… I am now living in an apartment with the President of Rotary. She is in her mid 70s and is such a sweet lady. There is no washer machine so I am learning how to hand wash clothes. But, this is a good thing for me… I was so used to being spoiled… I did not have to make my bed or wash my clothes. Now, I am doing everything… there is no maid here. Don’t worry Mom and Dad, I will do my own laundry when I get home because living in this new house has already given me a reality check. There also isn’t wifi in my house… which is sad because I cannot use my ipod or skype. But, I plan on visiting my friend a lot since she has wifi in her house.

Carnival was this past weekend… I went with some of my swim friends. People spray that foam snow that is in a can and they throw talcum powder. They both hurt so bad when they get in your eyes. This guy used a WHOLE CAN of the foam on me. I had such a great time… stuff like that would NEVER happen back home!

A few weeks ago I went to "Salinas Grandes" ... the salt mine in Jujuy! It was full of water so it reflected like a mirror!


-Arianna said that when she says she is from Pennsylvania… people think it is Transylvania where the vampires are at… this made me laugh because people in Argentina think the same thing.

-everything is so relaxed here… I regret going home to the fast-passed, “I don’t have time for anything” type of life

MY MOMS BIRTHDAY IS MARCH 12TH… SHE WILL BE 50.
MY GRANDMAS BIRTHDAY IS MARCH 17TH… SHE WILL BE 75.
I hope that they have wonderful birthdays… they are the women that have made me who I am today…They are the strongest women I know and will forever be my role models!
