So, Wednesday started out well. I got up, went to school (learned that I had a presentation and a paper due tomorrow. We received the requirements for the paper and presentation that day), then came home and did homework. I even learned (self learning experience) that I do indeed need my alone time. In other words, I was a little tired of people (not that I don't love all of the people I'm with, I truly do appreciate and love spending time with them) so, even though there was an opportunity to do homework with others from my class right after school, I decided to go into my room, turn on some music, and go solo. Which ended up being a nice respite (I even danced a little).
Anyway, after homework, Christina, Conner, Claire, Profe, and I went to Costco (it was very kind of him to drive us there) because Conner needed to buy a camera. So we went, explored a little, and ate pizza! (My trip to Mexico is complete! I can now return home satisfied :P) The pizza wasn't as good as the states, but it was a'right.
After Costco, we returned home. Conner, Christina, and Claire went to go see a movie (I had not desire to see the movie they were going to go seeing) and I stayed home and did homework. Well, actually I fell asleep for three hours (which was awesome! What's ironic is, I'd thought, "oops, hopefully I'll be able to sleep tonight!" What I didn't realize is I wouldn't be sleeping anyway, so it didn't matter, lol). After the nap (which I conveniently woke up right as Conner and Christina returned) we all worked on our group presentation (via google drive. SUCH a cool thing to use, by the way. I never realized that working on a project all at the same time was possible). After we split up, we continued working on our project. At some point, we took a break for food and ate...hotcakes!
They. Were. Delicious!!! *ahem*
After dinner, Christina and I returned to our room to resume our homework (at one point I did a Skype call with my classmates to discuss the paper. It was very helpful). As previously mentioned, I didn't finish until about 3 AM that morning (bout 2 AM I stopped to take a shower in hopes of restarting my brain. Which, actually worked, and I was able to finish my paper shortly after). Then I had the awesome happiness of waking up at 5:40 for school. For which, I dragged myself out of bed, got dressed, pulled my hair back into a ponytail, packed my bag, and headed out of the door (Christina and I looked so dead).
By some miracle, we managed to survive four hours of class (our 321 professor let us out a little early. I think he felt sorry for all of us - we were all short on sleep). Then we came home and took naps (took me a little while to fall asleep). I napped on and off/watched Fresh Prince till about 6 PM (though we did wake up at 2 PM for our lunch - tostadas! They were delicious).
About that time Christina went to the centro with Conner and I stayed behind to figure out some financial stuff (studying abroad is...expensive). At about 7 PM my MM came and asked if I needed anything from the store - she was going shopping. So I asked if I could go with her, and I did!
So we went to the mall (which has a grocery store in it, crazy right?? In Spanish it's called el centro de commercial). I got to pet some bunnies, look at some ducks and guinea pigs (they had a pet store there as well). And I also got to buy some delicious strawberry sorbete and view the whole mall (we did a little walk through) before we did the grocery shopping. It was fun! (And I learned that you can't take pictures inside of the mall...hence the lack of pictures).
We returned about 9 PM. Put the groceries away. Ate dinner. And then I stared at Facebook and talked with one of my siblings for a little while (which was nice).
And that about wraps it up!
'Til Tomorrow.

Why no pictures at the mall?
