Day Thirty Six

     Sorry I missed yesterday and that this week has been pretty poor on the blogside of things. Really haven't gotten to do a whole lot with exams today and tomorrow. Had the written exam today. It went pretty well, especially considering that I thought today was the oral exam.... Oh well I will just be super prepared for tomorrow haha.

     Big things coming up in the next two weeks on this page, be sure of that so keep checking in! Here's a hint about Sunday's events:


     That my friends is a highly coveted ticket to the Boca Juniors vs River Plate. This is the most intense rivalry in the world even beating out Barcelona vs Real Madrid. The two teams are both from Buenos Aires and the fanaticism of the fans here is insane! I don't know if I shared this previously but I asked the guy at the pizza place by my house how to say 'slice' when I had first arrived here. He said to me "There are three things you need to know in this city. 1. Boca Juniors 2. Slice is porcion 3. Boca Juniors" And everybody here is like that. Additionally the Superclasico (Name for the match when these two teams play each other) didn't happen last year so this is the first time in 18 months that they will be playing each other! Super excited! This ticket is for the section where the die hard fans go. The locals that stand the whole game and sing songs and go absolutely crazy for each goal. Couldn't be more excited! Now back to studying for the test I already studied for.
