I still prefer taking the bus to college, but I gotta admit that the Buenos Aires subway ain't half bad. The cute emo guy sitting next to me was definitely a plus. :P

Also, semiotics are kinda interesting, but they are soooooooooooo dense.

I really hope I get to go. The trip is four weeks, but it's... expensive, and I just don't know if I'll be able to afford it. I need to stop putting off talking to the International Programs Center about what kind of funding I can get from them for it, since it's through the school and it's technically a study abroad program.

Brazil does have a reputation for good parties and carnivals. We're better at rock concerts, though. 8)

Yeah, Brasil and Argentina are great countries. I need to visit both of them someday.

Is it bad I used to find the Argentinian dialect of Spanish a bit pretentious? :p

I mean, I think you guys are pretty cool, but still, the pretentiousness oozes out of the language :p
