01/21/16

Our final was today! It wasn't terribly hard, just like the midterm. There were actually multiple choice questions along with our short answer, which was nice.

As soon as our final was over, Jess and I headed to the mall to pick up one last gift for one of our friends. We didn't find exactly what we wanted at first, but eventually found something better! We also went to the grocery store to grab some snacks for the plane. There, we also decided we are going to have a Costa Rica themed party when we get home, so we bought lots of food and drinks for that to bring home! That should be fun! We took pictures of both the Beach Club (left) and Hoxton (right). It's funny how Hoxton looks like an abandoned frat house, but is the best club to go to on Tuesday's nights!


I met up with Charlie and hung out at the school for a while before grabbing dinner at Don Ro, the nice man who has a small stand on campus. I've had his empanadas many times, however this time I got a hot dog (perro calliente!) and it was delicious! I ran home to change before heading to dance class - our last one!! There, we saw Luis (one of my favorite people at Veritas!). Here's him with Jess and me:


He's a goof ball, and is very nice. He always tells us we have "ugly eyes" (although it sounds like "oogly") because they're blue which is practically nonexistent in Costa Rica, but he later told us ugly was a good thing!

Here's Ryan and I, right before we had to say goodbye...


He has improved so much in dance class! I'm probably going to visit him over the summer. He's such a sweetheart!

After dance class, most of the people in class headed to Castro's Bar in Barrio Mexico (barrio means neighborhood), which is a famous salsa bar. Man, was that fun!! I danced with Charlie, Jess, and Jeron all night! The music was so great, and we have all gotten so good at dancing! We did bachata, merengue, salsa, and cumbia in class, and showed off all our skills at the club! It was probably the most fun dancing I have had this whole time!
