Estoy Perdida!

For all of you non-Spanish-Speakers, that means, "I'm lost." I have been lost 4 times in the last 24 hours. It's really quite ridiculous. In fact, last night, I got so lost that I was on a corner with a map and a nice British woman came to help me. Kind strangers are my saving grace these days. During my wandering, I have come across some excellent sites.
My first Chilean Sunset

I suppose they have these everywhere now, it's
a bridge where you put a lock with the one you love.

A mural from down the street. The art
here is fantastic.
The view from the top of Cerro Santa Lucia. I wish it would
rain so there would be less smog!


Yesterday I went on a walking tour of the city and I met a few English speakers. We met up at a recommended wine bar last night and then today for some excellent Peruvian food. I must say, raw fish still scares me a bit but the ceviche was excellent. 
Mixed Ceviche for lunch! 

Besos xx

    I'm so jealous and happy for you! Loooove you!
    I'm sure you've heard but Bella Vista is the quarter with all the clubs and bars at night, it's pretty fun! El Tunel is a good club too. And you have to try a drink called Terremoto (Earthquake) (wine and ice cream!), and the other famous drink is a Pisco sour but a) Peruvians claim they invented it and b) I think it's gross, pisco tastes kind of like tequila to me. MUCHOS BESITOS TKM!!

11 Things

So one of my favorite blogs Paleorunnergirl just did this post and I thought it would be fun! So here you go: 1. What is your favorite meal? You know…I really just love food. But these days I would have to say crab cakes and broccoli. 2. How many times have you been in love? Zero. 3. What is your Starbuck’s order? I used to work there so this is a very loaded question. Here are my top 5: -Tall soy no water chai light foam -Tall Americano in a Grande cup with extra room (I add 2% milk and equal myself) -Double tall soy latte light foam -Venti iced passion tea 6 shots sugar free vanilla, no classic light water light ice -Tall espresso frappacino, no frappucino roast skim milk no whip  You had no idea how loaded of a question that was! 4. Action/Comedy/Drama/ or Romantic Comedy? Romantic comedies all.the.way.  My favorite romcom. I like them all though! 5. What was your favorite TV show when you were a kid? When I was really little I liked Arthur. 6.

What you didn't know about nursing school

Image
So usually I do a Sunday post but I just didn't have time this weekend! I had an anatomy test at 9 on Monday morning so I basically spent all weekend studying (there was a little time spent watching the super bowl and relaxing with friends.) But since I have been spending so much time doing school work this semester I decided I would give you a glimpse into what it's like! First and foremost the nursing school is really disorganized so we have a Facebook group to keep us sane. Whether it's about anatomy, football tickets or getting a ride somewhere, if you have a question, you post it here for a guaranteed answer. There is also some shenanigans on the nursing Facebook page...a lot of posts like this: U Mich nursing students love cats...and memes And this: That's what happens when your major is almost all girls! Not only are we connected virtually but we have all of our classes together so we're together all the time!  We walk together Off to the

Whining While Working Out

Image
I know I haven't blogged in a while...I do think about it a lot but I haven't had anything exciting to say! I'm still just babysitting and working out. But working out is the key part...I have had some REALLY hard workouts. Sunday (mother's day) I went out intending to run for 70 minutes and by about 45 I thought I was going to die. I mean not really die but I thought about asking someone if I could borrow their phone so I could get a ride home. It. was. awful. I mean I guess this is true...but I was pathetic. Then Monday I reluctantly put on my running shoes but then I looked outside and it was raining and I just decided to do laundry instead. Tuesday I had an okay 40 minutes on the elliptical while watching Sex and the City (thanks for lending it to me Sara!). I also visited my aunt, uncle and 2 cousins so it was a nice day. Me with the newest addition to the family. Then today I decided I would do a hill workout. I ran about a mile to a field that
