Day 2

Today we all meet up at UCEL and meet with Eiliana (the study abraod lady at UCEL) she was very nice and helpful. It was like an orientation and we discussed life in Roario and our classes....

Lucia was going to show me how to use the bus but we missed it! So we took a cab!

Last night she told me the Cab's with the red lights were free. I took this to mean it was free of charge, apparently she meant unoccupied! HA!! :) Blonde?

Um... not much else has happened today. We went to the supermercao and got some extra thing I needed like Shampoo.. I used my credit card.... After I signed they asked for my number. I had no idea what they were talking about of course. I gave them my passport number, but in South America (I think all of it?) not every one drives so not every one has a license. So for identification they have a seperate card with their "number on it." It was interesting.

Also!! This morning I noticed my fan was no longer working. I didnt know why, but I came home this after noon and they had taken my converter out of the wall. After much confusion, and Lucia translating... I figured out something wen't wrong when I plugged it into the wall!! And when it was plugged in the phone and the lights in the house do not work! :? woops! and I think I broke the fan. I told them I would replace it but the dad says he thinks he can fix it.
