Hola chicos, qué onda?

Back to reality again, my monday's feeling, after a short wekend holiday :)

But it's lovely getting home and have your house and room cleaned! mmmm

As I said, this time I went to Cuernavaca. We ended up going with a group of about 30, 50/50 exchange students and mexicans. We satyes at a huga villa and believe it or not, but there were beds for everybody! The boys who organized it had been grocery shopping before, so we all just pay a bit and had enough food and drinks for about 2 weeks! Not just one wekend!! There were about 20 bottles of tequila and a lot of other drinks like vodka, jagermeister, absint (!!!), malibu, etc. So, we ended up partying at drinking at home for 2 night, chilling by the pool and eating (hamburgers, hotdogs and quesadillas, and for breakfast kilos of fruit :)). We only left to go and check out the city centre, which was very nice and cozy with a fabulous architecture. Though it was raining madly, so we just ran into a cafe. On sunday we had to wake up early (11am), to go to the parachute place. 10 of us were going to jump, not me! It was very nice to see, and eventually I'll also do it once, I did not do it on that day anyway because it was raining and i think it must be much nicer when it's sunny... Everything went fine and they really enjoyed it. I rellay enjoyed the part that at the mini airport they were playing Armin van Buren!! (dutch pride)

It's amazing how it can rain here! At the moment there's a sort of storm/huricane going on i guatemala and we can feel it here in Mexico as well. In the south of the country there are many floods and here in Mexico City it also rained a lot. Though, in the raining months, June, July, August and September, it usually rains here every afternoon, at about 19h but then stops again...

This year is a very special year for the mexicans, they call it the "Bicentenario" because on September 15th it will be 200 years ago that Mexico gained its independence. Its a very inportant festival for the mexican people, they are already getting ready for it by decorating their houses with flags and other national symbols, also public buildings, schools and cars are decorated. On that dat we'll have a long weekend, as its a national holiday the 15th and they extend it to the 16th and 17th. So I'll have 5 days off and everybody is organizing trips and thing to do. I'm still not sure what to do... Iván, my roomie invited me, Marta and Timi to go to his hometown, San Miguel de Allende. But as that's quite nearby I might go there an other weekend and use this long one to go further away, to Oaxaca for instance. Several groups od exchange students of ITAM are going there, it's a region in the south and at the moment there's the storm over-there, thus we could not go to its famous beaches to swim and surf (Puerto Escondido, my dream beach has perfect waves!). And so, I'm still not sure where I'm going, we'll see.

I'm gonna stop writing useless stuff on the internet and focus on my presentation for next week about the Danish Economy. It's quite interesting actually :)

Hasta pronto, mis amores!

Saludos
