Star Wars

Hey, what's up guys? How's life? Last week, I finished work at Gettysburg, and then I came home to Maryland for the rest of the summer. I go back to Gettysburg College for my last year, on August 25th. Meanwhile, I have been watching a lot of movies. I think I have watched the last James Bond movie, "Casino Royale", about 6-7 times in the last two weeks. Haha, I love all the James Bond movies.

My other favorite movies are the Star Wars movies. I think I have seen each movie at least one hundred times, haha. Chewbacca and Darth Vader are the best characters in the Star Wars series. I like the older Star Wars movies more than the newer ones.

Last week, my friends and I moved into our new apartments for our last year of college. I think our new apartments are the best on-campus. We each have our own room, a kitchen, a living room, and a bathroom with a shower. It's great...I cannot wait to start the new year! Catch you later!

Hello friends!

It has been a long time since I have heard news from you? How are you doing? Did you enjoy your English class? Ine is such a wonderful person, and I know she is a great teacher. I cannot wait to see her...she will be attending university very close to where I do!

I will put some pictures up soon...I have been busy lately. We celebrated Independence Day on July 4, and I went camping this past weekend. I have lots of fun pictures of me, my boyfriend, and two of my friends!

What do you all like to do on the weekend? Do you like to go to the movies? Do you go to discos a lot? Discos in Mendoza are lots of fun!

I hope to hear from you all very soon! Hugs and kisses!

Hello Man...

How are you? Look, I bring them good news (it is about the “Asado”).

Is the day Thursday, July 24 (están todos invitados).

Where?

In my house, in Maipu. (you have got my address).

As arriving?

Then I tell them (los voy hacer un mapita).

And the idea is...

+ on Tuesday we go to the course (we study, we work, we listen) (buenaaah te la creiste...)
+ when it finishes, we leave to my house all together (to eat, to dance, to drink... de una locoooh)

Also is a very important date, because:

+ we will welcome to the new teacher. (mansa profe locos)
+ we will receive a very special visit: Joey (teacher's friend)
+ and well... although it hurts us, we will give the farewell to Inés (manzo bajon va hacer, me parece q pintan las lagrimas)

Ok... I remind them, that I need $10,ºº for person, to buy the meat, the drink, the salad and the bread (de posta vieja, si tampoco los voy a cagar...)

(acuérdense de que me tienen que dar la moneda una semana antes)

Anything calls me or writes me...

Hey

Hey, guys. How's it going? Life in Gettysburg is pretty boring right now. I work for the Spanish Department of Gettysburg College as a statistician, but lately, I have been watching a lot of baseball on TV and playing video games with my friends. On July 24, we are going to go see the Philadelphia team (the Phillies) play the Washington team (the Nationals). I'm very excited for that.

Also, I like working with and learning about automobiles. My favorite kinds of cars are BMWs, Hondas, and Toyotas. Before this year, I worked for a Toyota car salesman, so I often worked with cars.

Not too much is happening here at Gettysburg. I'm probably going to go eat pizza later tonight (I love good Italian and Mexican food) and see a movie. Adios muchachos!

the best band

Those `re the Guns n`Roses band. The guitarrist player is Slash.

In my free time:

I like listening all types of music, but my favourite is Grunge... Bands like Nirvana, Pearl jam, Alice in Chains and Soundgarden. (noooh son mansos grosos los chabones)
I play guitar but I am not very great, now I am saving to buy me a Saxophone (ok... I was).
I love going to pub with my friends to drink a lot of beer (re botella... I'm drunkman).
But I don't like the Sunday's day, because are very boring to me.
And of course... I like to be with my Family.
