And, One More Time... Buenos Aires
Hey Lana, guess what? IVE BEEN ON THE SOUND OF MUSIC TOUR IN AUSTRIA!!! Whose surprised? Anybody? ANyone? No...oh. Well, you can see the pictures when I get home. Speaking of pictures I have OVER 1300, and these are the ones Im keeping, Ive deleted way more. To answer another matter, do you guys really think that I would publicize the fact that I got a piercing on a website read by my whole family if you couldnt SEE it? I mean, come on, use your heads!
ANyways, Im heading off to the airport in a while so Im drinking lots of water, because I wont get any on the plane! Just kidding, I dont think those banns affect any of my flights, although I could get to the airport and realise that Im wrong, who knows. These last few days have been lame. I was bored and really lost the will do go do anything, plus I was running low on cash and refused to take out more from the bank (damn those bank fees) because I wouldnt have needed to take out a lot. So Friday morning I went downstairs for breakfast and there was this Irish guy sitting at the bar drinking a pint of beer. I asked him if he was seriously drinking beer at 9 in the morning? He asked me if I was SERIOUSLY going to the gym while I was on vacation. We both said `touche“ and parted ways. So I worked out and had spanish lessons and walked around a gypsy market (I think thats my 6th GYPSY market this trip, not to be confused ith other markets) and a road where all the stores sold antiques. It was like walking from one garage sale to another. There was some cool stuff but how was I gonna fit a tea set or candelabra into my bag? Went out for lunch, watched Gilmore Girls. OH...things got really exciting when the bead of my piercing fell into the toilet as it was being flushed, so I had to walk half way across town to get a new one. Meanwhile i was worried that the bar would fall out, but nope, that sucker stayed put! Whenever I feel like sleeping in theres this guy in my dorm who ALWAYS starts snoring around 830 in the morning (I think its cuz he goes to bed around 8 am) so, no.
On Saturday I went to the gym again, then Spanish. It was our last lesson, she was really great! I walked around for a bit but it was weird. All the stores were closed and there was like, no one walking on the street, which is weird for a saturday. Its like a ghost town, i dont know why. Ate...packed(I had to buy another bag to get everything to fit and not weigh too much)...watched tv, caught up on my journal. I dont know why I insist on keeping a journal when I travel. I never have one at home, but somehow, on a trip it seems like a good thing to do. Its a bit redundant having a blog and a journal, and plus, especially with the GAP tour there was no time to write, so you fall bahind and then it just becomes a game of catch-up. Oh well, Im sure when Im 80 Ill appreciate it...if I can still see when Im 80. I kinda felt sad walking around which surprised me. I mean, I dont wish I could stay here longer or anything but, it was kinda sad that this was my last day here, you know?
This morning I went to a market near the hostel thats always on on Sundays. I wasnt gonna buy anything though because again...no cash and plus after so long, all the stuff they sell at markets looks the same. Oh more jewlerry, more candle holders,more fancy soap...it gets old. But i found this wearhouse full of racks and racks of clothes by independent designers. So after buying a shirt and eating lunch I am down to 30 pesos...and sharing a cab to the airport with Ricky will cost me 25 so, cutting it close I know, but thats better than being left with tonnes left over.
So I guess that this is my last entry. Lets try not to cry about that. I guess Ill see most of you soon and (I dont know, this is awkward) thanks for reading? :)
