Farewell Fiestas

Sarah had organized a dinner and party at her apartment as a goodbye/so glad finals are over thing this last Thursday night. There were about 23 of us at dinner in this really awesome restaurant. We had this upstairs part all to ourselves and the ceiling was completely covered in wine bottles that were laying on their sides. I'm still not exactly sure what type of meat I was consuming but it was on top of sweet potatoe mashies and had a spectacular sauce on it. Rico. We wined and dined and then Sarah's apartment was litterally above the restaurant. She had a huge, and very nice terrace where we all hung out. SO many people came, and it surprised me to see so many kids and realize they're from Belgrano but I had never seen them before. There was dancing, fun music, and lots of running around, trying to talk to everyone. Agus, Nacho, and Nico ended up dropping by so I very luckily got a ride home. Sweeeeet. Went to bed as the sun was rising.

Yesterday Jessica, Kelsey, and I had deemed as girls/roomy day because Kelsey leaves Bs As for good on Sunday and Jessica was taking off for a week long trip today. We got up around one and decided to eat breakfast at a funky, cute cafe we've grown fond of. We had just ordered and were enjoying the cool couches to sit on while eating outside, when we noticed that the lights had gone out inside. Our waiter comes out and is like ya so the power went out all down the block, you guys can chill here for a bit in the hopes it turns back on because now we can't cook any of the warm food you requested. So we stuck it out for a bit, but man o man were we hungry. In the end we got orange juice, yogurt with fruits and nuts, and medilunas. After this we went to the park near Plaza Italia to rent rollerblades. This time I fell on my ass, HARD haha but got back up and kept on going. It was a really gorgeous, bit hot, day yesterday. The sun was shining and there were very few fluffy white clouds in the air so it was mostly blue skies. After our time was up on the skates (you rent them for an hour) Synnove, Soren, and another girl were having a picnic in the park but across the street. So we met up with them, drank some champaign, and then headed back home. Grabbed some groceries on the way home so we could make our own dinner together, stirfry and salad. We sat out on our balcony and had a really wonderful dinner. Thennn we ordered home delivery ice cream! We got 4 different flavors but they still all had dulce de leche in them. These people are OBSESSED with dulce de leche. Jessica's choice was a dulce de leche flavored ice cream, that had dulce de leche in it, and dulce de leche filled chocolate. At around 10:40 we were like hmmmm maybe we should get ready? Finally got out of the apartment and headed on over to Flavio and Ariana's apartment for another terrace fiesta :) Another oh so fun night! Almost everyone there had flights to catch home or for further travels today or Sunday. Crazyyy.

Now a day for recovering and cleaning my room. Chau!
