Last day at the University

Today started off pretty hectic. Olivia, Jillian and I all woke up late. I set my alarm for the wrong time on accident, Jill’s didn’t go off and Olivia accidentally turned the alarm off after the snooze. We woke up at 8:23 and we were supposed to leave for the University at 8:30. We all just brought our contacts and toothbrushes to the University and got ready there, since we didn’t want to risk being late. After the chaos, we had class. Our professor was the same from the first day, Jami. We learned about Latin America and their economy. It was pretty interesting to see all of their economy’s compared to the USA. We only had one lecture for about an hour and a half, afterwards we did some company presentations. Latam Airlines and Vina Indomita Vineyards went today. We learned about how their companies function as well as their industry. We had some free time after class and it was so beautiful so a couple of us took some photos around the University. There was no fog in the sky and everything could be seen so clearly!

After that, about half of us went to a little café right next to the Hotel. The special was lasagna with soup, a drink, and desert for only like eight American dollars. It was soooo good, we all got it! We were so full so all of us pretty much took a nap afterwards and then went to play soccer with the Chilean students. They rented out this field for all of us. We played on four teams of 6. At first, I was pretty bad. But after about two games I felt more comfortable and actually started trying to play. I wasn’t that good…but I had a lot of fun! All the Chileans were so good! Soccer is a popular sport in Latin American countries, specifically Chile. So it wasn’t surprising that they all were amazing. We played soccer for about two and a half hours, which was exhausting.

At the end of the night, we went out to an authentic Chilean restaurant. I don’t remember the name but about ¾ of us went out for Jenny’s birthday. It was really fun! We split up the checks into one of 4 and two of 5 people. We each split like 3 entrees. They were huge!!! We couldn’t finish ours, not even close. We got leftovers though so hopefully those will come in handy whenever I don’t feel like leaving the hotel to eat. Tonight we are going to karaoke night for her birthday, which should be a blast! Talk to you tomorrow guys!
