Hair

Went to get my haircut yesterday. I went with some friends from Argentina I met here to be safe. At first I was all set for some hardcore layers and a little more of the side bangs thatare easily brushed away if I needed. Well halfway through I was talked in to getting the Argentine bangs.
I must tell you that at first all I could say was no, no, no. I hated it, because I looked aboslutely different. I can safely say that right now I am completely content with having this new haircut. See if you recognize me.

Goal de Boca

I went to my first Boca Juniors game yesterday. Unreal. They played Los Estudiantes, and won. Estudiantes had 2 red cards. Next time I need to know all of the Boca songs before go.

The craziest part was the fan section for Boca. Not only was it freezing and a few of them had not shirts on, but at the end of the game the police had to escort out the Estudiantes fans out of the neighborhood before Boca fans could leave the stadium. The police actually guarded the Boca fans too on the field. Those kids are crazy.

Mate culture

Here everyone shares. The "Mate Culture". When you are at a disco, when someone buys a drink they pass it around to everyone first. The same with food.
Speaking of mate, I bought my first mate bombilla and gord.

I also bought probably the most important purchase this week. Tango shoes.

If this gets to Emily, EmFace I took this picture for you mi querida. It reminded me of you for some reason, enjoy!


And for Prof Paciulli, I went to the zoo!


Heres the last pic of the post, a disco I went to last Saturday named Pacha. It was great times.

Hasta luego!
