pucha it's been a while

since the 2nd? no puede serrrrrr.

hm...what have i been up to...
last week was spent translating like mad, the english girl in my house lent me her laptop for the week while she went to easter island and so i took advantage of that and typed up 20 pages of my thesis. it was good, lots of progress made on thesising, but i was shut up in my room way too much. made me go a bit nuts. i'm still kinda nuts. more nuts than usual that is.

so this week, i'm trying not to spend too much time translating. plus, i have little time left here in santiago so i have to aprovechar. i'm spending my days wandering the streets, taking pictures of details, preparing myself for my return home. tomorrow one of my chilena friends (yes i have chilena friends now! woot) is taking me to the cemeterio nacional, where allende and victor jara and all the chilean superheroes are buried...its supposed to be pretty cuatica so i'm excited. (i can only use that word, even though sivan is the only person reading this who might know what cuatica means, sorry)

i cut my hair again. chile styllllle. no more argentinian mullet. (sorry aunties, i know how much you liked it) i look like every other chilena wandering the street these days now, i'm not sure how i feel about it, kinda sad, kinda liberated. plus the rasta, plus the trensa, oh crap. i bet chilenos in california will point me out on the street for sure. at least i cut off my nappy mess i had a few days back...everyday i was growing new dreads my hair was so rediculously tangled.

friday night my compañeros are throwing me a goodbye party...i don't like goodbyes, but i do like parties. jeje.

i'm not really sure how i feel these days, but i am looking forward to going home.
planning new things. post-chile things.
