Thoughts, Revelations, and Happenings

Alright, so I feel like I should update. But the thing is that nothing very exciting or noteworthy is going on. I just go to school, come home, sleep, eat and repeat. But I do have some things I can share with you all:

*I learned something about the Spanish language that totally rocked my world. The letters ch, ll, and rr no longer exist in the spanish alphabet as of 1994. Wow. I definitely learned that they were letters and I held that idea until around 4 o'clock on Monday afternoon. I still don't know what I think. I feel like I've been deceived, but then again, it doesn't really matter. But they are different phonemes, obviously. I think that schools in the U.S. should really get on that and switch up the curriculum. But don't you worry, ñ is still standing strong as its own letter. More power to you, Ñ.

(lies, lies, lies)

*A thing that I've noticed and been curious about is, at what point do peruvian women stop wearing normal bras and decide to go with ones that look a bit lumpy instead? Is there an age cut-off or something? Or just personal preference?

*Monday night (well around 2:30 am Tuesday morning) I felt my first earthquake ever. I'll confess, it was a bit scary. But it was short and sweet. It woke me up, but I was so disoriented that I wasn't quite sure what was going on. After it was over I realized what had happened and went into the hall to see what was up. And Alfredo just told me to go back to bed. So please pray that we don't have any more, and that they don't get bigger. Thanks.

*I can't quite figure out why we aren't reading any works by female authors. Oh wait, machismo. I'm going to have a little chat with Julio.

*At the grocery story, they seem to think that it is a good plan to sell eggs in a bag. A nice little plastic bag. Strange. And its not like they've never heard of cartons, because I've seen cartons with eggs too. But for some reason they still put them in a bag. A little too risky for me.

*Tomorrow makes 2 months that I've been here in Lima. Thats crazy.

Thats all for now. Sorry I'm not more exciting tonight.

I miss Tijuana.
