Day 4 •• May 30

9:15am. 
I'm in a car heading to ISAM! The bus ride was good. We all awoke 'round 4:30am and talked for about an hour. Breakfast was served at 8:15. We arrived at the bus station at 9.

5:30pm 
I'm sitting in my dorm room as I type. Unfortunately, no wifi. My roommates are Lucia and Pauline. They're quite nice. Thankfully, Sarah is right down the hall. It's been hard attempting to communicate. I can't wait for our Spanish lessons to start. After lunch (hispanic version of cafeteria food) Sarah and I went to the Music Building to jam with Kevin, a international student to SVA .... and it just started pouring. And thundering. Delightful. Anyhow, we hung out there for a while. The others joined us later. Got the wifi password, and was able to Skype home. Took a shower a few minutes ago and now I'm waiting until supper, which is at 6:30.

10:00 
At vespers we were made to introduce ourselves and answer questions. Someone asked Sarah and I if we had boyfriends. Awkward. But it got worse. We were then made to stand out in the foyer and greet everyone ... in the traditional Argentinian greetings. Which means a kiss on either cheek. Guys and girls. Delightful.
