Progress

So a little more time has passed, and a few more things have changed. I´ve gotten into a rhythm here and the culture shock is getting better. Even the staring dosn´t bother me anymore. But I still can´t help counting down the days until I leave. It´s not like I´m unhappy here or anything, It´s just really obvious that this place isn´t home.
But, on a slightly brighter note a list of things I´ve done in chile that I thought I would never do in my life:

1. Eat Churky- So it´s basically dried and salted meat shreaded and served with fresh herbs and a chili past. Sounds good right... well Cristhian decided to tell me after I had eaten 2 servings that the meat was dried beef(pretty normal) and horse. HORSE! It didn´t help that the place where we were eating was a farm and right there two my left were three horses. Pobre caballos.

2. Chicha- Half processed wine... pretty nasty and it looks like vomit. But everyone drinks it here on special occasions.

3. Making snow angles in the Andes

4. Have 5 siblings

6. Staying out on a school night until 3am, and it be perfectly normal

7. Graduate high school twice

I´m sure there´s a million more, but one thing about a family of 7 is theres not a lot of time for me to just sit and think. Anyway, it´s lists like this that make me happy that I came.
