okay so soo many things to say..... first and most important.....

Lura Long joined the Curicó, Chile, Colegio Rauquen Soccer team! Laurel and Molly, be proud. It´s asolutely ridiculous considering lura has never played an organized sport since she wore polka dot leggings. She´s horrible! but hey, it keeps her busy and it is quite fun. Lura runs around looking like an idiot for two hours on mondays and saturdays and stays in shape, sort of. She doesnt know exactly how it happened, or why she is writing in third person...... im stopping now.

Today i was in class, i dont remember which one but it doesnt matter because i dont understand any of them....... and my compañera- table partner asked me if i wanted to join the fútbol tteam. I laughed and told her i had never played soccer and that it would be halarious. But, she kept insisting and i remembered what i had told myself, try everything once (except the obvious things.....) and take all invitations you get because you have no friends in chile yet. And so.... during lunch i got all my stuff for soccer and before i knew it, i was lined up on a gym floor and running around attempting to kick a soccer ball. I feel so accomplished and horrible and in pain, everywhere, but, im so proud of myself for actually doing it.

Yesterday my familywent to a another family´s house for onces. It was very fun and their house is so amazing. I attempted to learn how to make sopapillas but.... wellll.......im not quite there yet. here are some pictures of the everning:

Oh yes and saturday, it was warm! YAY! and i spent most of the day on our balcón with coni, we took about 50 pictures but im not going to put those up now...... but then, in the afternoon, Simón brought an extra mattress from in his room and we practiced gymnasio. It was very fun. my host mom did it too but she told me i cant put her video up, too bad.

here is a video of fani trying to help me do a handstand. Sorry if it doesnt work, oh and yes, it´s sideways.

here is fani doing a somersault (no clue how to spell that):

yep so it´s late and im helping simón make a cow model, part of a bet so im going to go. But today was a great day, even with me looking dumb in soccer and for the first time, i honestly never want to lave chile. yay!
