I am sitting in a café in Querétaro... more like a small restaurant with a small menu that serves coffee products. It's cute and it has some pretty good and decently priced food.
I haven't been shocked in a bad way by anything I've seen or done in Mexico so far... But some of the other study abroad kids seem shell shocked by living here. Maybe it's because they've never traveled much or just had the wrong perception of life here would be like... I can't tell you.
I like the Irish girl but she says everything she eats here "disgusts" her. Absolutely everything. I kind of wanted to tell her she could boil her own potatoes... but I'm not sure that would go over so well.
Then there are two girls from SFSU that put "mexico on blast" on their facebook statuses and notes nearly every day. Some of the things they complain about are a little absurd... Ireland is only here for 6 months but the SFSU girls have a whole year just like I do!
I hope for their sakes they start liking Querétaro more... or it's going to be a really long year.
I told Nathaniel yesterday that there isn't anything I don't like about Querétaro. It's a cool little city. The things I don't like have nothing to do with the city its self. If my parents, Billy and Nathaniel were here I'd be loving every minute.
I found a Indian food restaurant and ate at it yesterday... it was pretty good and totally exceeded my expectations.
Querétaro... You're pretty cool but I really miss people.
Friday afternoon I am journeying to Huamantla with Cristina and Paul... It should be an interesting weekend. I don't really feel like drinking...
All the international kids seem to want to party every single night. If you want to go out and get hammered on a tuesday someone else is totally willing to go with you. Wednesday? Not a problem. I heard people talking about Dorsia tonight. Dorsia isn't even that great!
It reminded me of "The Epidemic" from when I was back in High School in more ways than one. I'm more of a pub and dive bar girl so although Wicklow is pretty touristy a quiet beer there will do just fine.
Anyways, I do have some homework to get to... I'll be thrilled if I pass all my classes.
