Week three started to be a struggle for me because I realized how much work 12 credits was in 5 weeks. But I took some time to do homework and luckily I am back on top of the homework game. During the week we went out to a jazz festival in the Centro and did some shopping before ending up in the Fabrica de Chocolate. The restaurant has all sorts of chocolate and ever fondue. We then headed to College bar and saw the night life during a local soccer game. Soon it was time to head home and it was pouring down rain, the best way to explain the rain here is to compare it to Oregon by saying when it pours in Oregon, it is a sprinkle here. The streets started to flood and it was almost impossible to get a taxi. Thankfully everyone made it home safe and took hot showers. The last time it rained and no one showered right after, we all got really sick. We also went to the movies on Wednesday at the theater by my house. On Wednesdays they have discounts and the movies are around 31 pesos. They are so cheap! We saw “How to Train Your Dragon” and “Transformers” in Spanish.

That weekend, I decided to go on a weekend trip to San Miguel de Allende, which is a beautiful town. The morning the group left, I looked up places to go in San Miguel and saw there was a Hot Spring right outside the town and so I told people to bring swimsuits!
