wow, havent posted anything for a while.....

wow, I've been in school, and doing things on the weekends, and so I've absolutely forgotten to post anything on the blog >>.<< School gets out for summer break next friday, until march (summer break. I've also recently started rugby, with 2 practices a week; although the ball looks a little like the one for football, the games are completely different. I dont have anything special planned this summer, but I've started looking into a few trips I can make relatively cheaply to cities where there are other exchange students, or extended host family that would have me over for a little while. I'm going to a Rotary orientation in 9 days (December 13th) in Villa Alemana (a 45 minute plane ride to Santiago, followed by about an hour in car) where i will take a Spanish proficiency test, and the people who fail the test will be sent back to their host countries. I'm not too worried about the test, a friend i got in touch with back in Febuary when I was picked for Chile by Rotary sent me an example of how the test is going to be, and i scored 100%. You're probably wondering why I havent gotten any pictures up lately, and I was really surprised looking at the last thing I posted that I didnt put anything up when my camera got stolen while I was out on a walk a few blocks from my house, but nothing happened to me so its no cause to worry really. I'll steal a few pictures off of some friend's facebooks and go ahead and stick em up on here. Leave me some comments, I'd be happy to answer any questions about well, whatever you'd wanna ask :P

David: Haven't talked to you lately so here goes. It is snowing and quite cold. This is Thursday the 18th. The temps are in the teens and have about a foot of snow. It is really pretty if you don't have to venture out in it. Sorry to hear about your camera, will talk to your parents about sending you mine as we have two digital cameras. Sounds like you are having a great time and quite an adventure. Will give your parents your Christmas present to put in your bank account. You have a very merry Christmas, miss and love you, Papa and Georgia.
