Today was the start of the weekend! It was our first day off. I began the day after waking up around noon time with breakfast. I ate some cereal bars and juice I purchased at a local supermarket. They were flavors I haven’t seen before and they were very good. I found myself relaxing, watching television in Spanish, and catching up with my friends in the United States online.
Eventually, my roommates and a group of the students decided to go out to a restaurant for lunch. One of the students, Brianna, had found a small place to eat that she thought would be a nice inexpensive place to go. She was right! It was a small restaurant but, the food selection and prices were perfect. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and orange juice. The food tasted and smelled fresh and the orange juice seemed to be freshly squeezed from the orange itself. One of my best lunches so far.
Soon after lunch we all met up for dinner at around 6:00 PM. We went to eat at another local restaurant near the casino. Our seats were on the second floor by a window so we could look out into the lively city. There was a live DJ and the food again was fresh and filling to eat.
After the satisfying dinner with the view and music to remember, a group of us watched some TV in Spanish. Comedy, drama, and scary movies were all very amusing to us because the Spanish voice over the actual speaking made everything seem less real.
Finally, after watching some movies, it was time to party! Two of the Chilean students took us out for a little pregame first. At around 1:00 AM we went to the discotheque a few blocks from the hotel. I even met up with some Chileans that were at the casino discotheque from the previous night. There was a lot of hip hop from the United States that played as well as some Latin American music that was easy to dance to. On to the next day!
