Yesterday was sunday,
I woke up in the morning and got ready for soccer. Karina and I arrived at school at 10:30, right on time, to find that no one was there. Apparently, fútbol had been canceled but no one had informed about 6 of us. So, we stood there in front of the locked gate of our school for a good forty inutes before deciding no one was coming. So then, karina and Nath (exchanger from italy) and I walked around town for about an hour because we needed to wait for our rides.
Caroline, from Colorado, met us at the school at about 12 and she came over to my house. From there we went to Cerro Condell which is a large hill in the center of town that looks over everything. It was so beautiful and we just sat there with the family and ate snacks. It was very fun. I could finally get some picture of the mountains to show you guys. I can never get clear pictures of the mountains but they are a ton more visible here in Curicó than they appear.
This is Fani, Caroline and I where we decided to eat. It was funny because this time, we had two foreigners, one a blond, and everyone was just so confused as to who we were.
Today I had school, of course, but after, I had soccer practice. And guess what? I SCORED A GOAL! It was only in practice but i was so excited! And I finally feel like i kinda know the people on my team. Half of them call me Rose and to the others I´m Lura. I´m getting used to having two names. My soccer skills are improving although it is extremely painful.
So I have to get ready for school tomorrow! For those of you at home, two more weeks of summer! Muahahaha.......

Wow! Great! Did you sneak it in with a left footed

I am finally cleaning out the closets after the remodeling and keep finding little Lura things that make me sad....
We had two HUGE thunder and lightning storms here that washed out bridges in several towns.
But it was wonderful here in Minneapolis to sit in the windows and watch the water fill the pond and the constant lightning like fireworks.
Are you used to the cold? You dont mention much anymore.
Umm...updates? Have you totally forgotten about this?
