Talk is Cheap

Our weekend was wondeful---the weather was so nice!! I feel so grateful because we had 8 Uruguayos to show us around and give us the real experience. And real experience it was....15 of us (final count) for 3 beds and 1 shower...hahahaha. We drank a TON of mate (the Uruguayos made SURE we had mate before we left) and got to grill a traditional asado. The asado is different cuts of meat slowly grilled over coals so that we eat for about 3-4 hours. We went to the beach and because it isn't HOT HOT, it was almost empty...so fun! I'll post up pictures soon.

I had to give a presentation the other day in class and basically just had to talk for like 10 minutes about the markets in uruguay. This was for the same professor who yelled at me the first week and told me I spoke no Spanish and my accent was horrible. When I was done she said my accent was excellent...FINALLY!!!! Let me tell you I have been working my butt off talking as much as I can...(so hard for me as you can imagine :) haha).
