Mario called while I was on the metro to see where I was because Olga was worried! Told him I’d be home soon!
Got home around 7 am, apologized profusely to Olga. She just laughed and told me not to worry at all, she just wanted to know and her phone wouldn’t work. Told me to just call next time I’d be out that late!
Went to sleep until around 11:30
Spent all day doing homework, talked to Sara (my sister) for a long time!
Turned down invite to go to my Chilean friend’s birthday party. Knew it would be another long, crazy night, decided I needed some down time to catch up on sleep and get some work done. Instead at 7 I met up with Sara at the theater to see the Ballet. Very modern, with a live orchestra. Not what I’d expected, but beautiful. It’s amazing what they can do with their bodies.
Got ice cream with Sara afterwards, sat and talked in the “park” in the median of the Alameda until right before the metro closed. She is Mormon but we have very similar perspectives on religion (it’s the faith that is more important, people shouldn’t hide behind the religion, can be dangerous if people never leave their safe community of faith to think/understand/experience, etc.) It was great to talk with her and sad because she is leaving early.
Went home early (11 pm) and spent the night working on my essays and fell asleep early.
