I woke up early to meet Calli at the Registro Civil (Civil Registry) to pick up our Cedulas, our official Chilean ID. Its pretty cool. It is basically a driver’s liscnese looking ID that makes us official temporary Chilean residents. We needed them to leave the country and it was a huge relief that they were done.
I went to campus early to try to finish my paper. I got it done then went to class. After my education class, my friend Jacklyn, who has been studying in Chile since Februaruy, read through my paper and edited for me. I didn’t have much time to print it off and get to the other campus for my 4:30 class and when I went to fix the edits and print it off, I realized that my jump drive didn’t save the last copy of my paper. I frantically re-wrote the whole think and ran to print it off. I was about 5 minutes late to my theology class, which is really good considering I used public transportation. The commute is usually about 30-40 minutes but I got there in 20!
After class, I met up with Courtney and Sara to get ice cream and discuss Harry Potter since we had all finished reading it. Since Sara loaned both Courtney and I the book, we treated her. We ate our delicious ice cream on the always busy and entertaining Paseo Ahumada, one of the pedestrian streets down town. I headed home around 8 pm, just in time to eat dinner and shower before Alquien te mira. After the show I finally started getting ready for my trip to Buenos Aires. I think because we planned the trip so last minute, it never really sunk in that I had a lot to do to get ready! I called my family and Trevor before I left and ended up not even packing!
