The second day of class was good. The more I study Spanish, the more interesting language in general becomes to me. Also, the more the importance of word choice becomes evident.
After class, a group of us went to one of the cafeterias on campus. On the way there, this guy jumped out in front of me and started running towards me. I stopped, startled, and as he jumped into giving me a hug, I recognized Barrett, a Clemson student who went to Argentina last summer. He´s currently on summer project in Costa Rica. I was so excited to see him. I knew he was going to be here, but hadn´t thought to contact him yet. I´m so glad we saw each other.
After lunch, we went to the National Museum which was fairly interesting. I´ll put up pictures soon. I´m really glad our group is getting along so well.
Fun story: On the bus ride back to my house there was a guy playing a drum and chanting. Then, he started telling jokes. It was hilarious...the guy, not the jokes, I could only understand bits and pieces of the jokes. Of course, he went around afterwords to collect money from us. I wish I had given him some.
Now I have to finish my homework. I have to write about the differences between Costa Rica and the U.S. I think I´ll focus on transportation...
