Back to normal

Sorry I haven't updated for a while, things haven't been too crazy here, but it's been nice getting back into a rhythm. Over the past couple weeks, I've been just doing normal things, going to class, hanging out with my family, and playing games. My classes have been going well, and over the past two weeks I had two tests, but other than that, nothing too crazy. My one test in Oceanography was pretty easy, the most complicated concept on the test was tectonic plates. My other test was in anthropology, and the concepts weren't too hard, but the test was an essay, and it's rather hard to write a three page essay in Spanish without a dictionary. However, I think it went well. We'll see.
I've been hanging out a lot with some of the guys on the frisbee team. We usually get together to play poker two nights a week, and we also play basketball sometimes too. Altogether, I normally hang out with them three days a week. When we play poker, we usually play until 4 or 5 in the morning. If you know how much I like games, you'll understand :).
However, I was playing basketball last Friday, and I was on the receiving end of an accidental elbow. It hit me just below my eyebrow, and split my skin open pretty well. It didn't hurt, but I was bleeding profusely, and I got to experience the Chilean health system, and I now have five stitches for a week. My experience in the hospital was pretty good, and I was treated rapidly and well. It only took about an hour from when I walked in to when I walked out.


Here's some sunset pictures that might be a little more pleasant:
