“Back2school”

How annoying. After a full week (and add a few days) of just going around everywhere with Ji (she was here for spring break) and Jurgen and Laura among others, I really don’t want to go back to school tomorrow. All other schools resumed today; ours resume tomorrow. yay!

They say that they’re getting rid of two half days to make up for it, but it’s all in may, when we, seniors, are out of school busy doing SIS, so I guess it really doesn’t matter. This week has been a very unique one. To tell the sincere truth, it was either Ozzy or BBC every single day including one night out to Andres where we ate fantastic meat and arepa de choclo among others. I have to admit: Bogota was looking very empty and dead and ghost-town-like, but it has been the best time to drive around the city. With no cars to block your way, it was the best.

Oh yeah… we actually went somewhere… for the day… We went to Villa de Leyva, in which case the “we” refers to my family and Ji and some other new family in Hyundai and a family of my brother’s arguable best friend. We had interesting looking German food there (yes, German… yes, random…) and roamed around the place (shopping) while the little kids were taken off by my dad to some monastery made of fossils. That was an interesting day…

*sigh*… you know… lately there are so many times where you simply let out a sigh…
I gotta admit that senioritis is slowly hitting me and knowing March 31 to be all the Ivy’s deadline isn’t helping much either.

Calafate

A combination of two pictures made the above vertical panorama. A little picture to feast your eyes upon before I talk more about my Patagonia experience. The “road” you see above was once the runway of the old Calafate airport. The new one is built with modern looks and has a capacity of holding two medium sized planes (from what I see), about 30 minute bus ride away from Calafate downtown. This runway in the picture, however, is overlooking the downtown Calafate; also a car road now, which was located in front of our hotel. The average velocity in which the cars traveled in this long desolate path was told to be 100 mph / 160 km/h … Get hit by a car there and die immediately…
