Chavez and pizza

20712

another day of class, and this one was no more interesting than the last. i did however discuss the politics of Venezuela with the teacher. our class know is comfortable with everyone to poke fun at eachother, ive already been pegged as the know-it-all asshole, (which is a slot i easily fill) so they were hassling me about challenging the teacher. i was talking about the elections in Venezuela not being "free and fair" and he thought we were just believing the anti-Chavez rhetoric, i tried to explain that there are indeed elections, but there is only like 50% voter turnout, and it isnt exactly "free and fair" he thought i was saying there are no elections, i was just saying the elections were a little dodgy. anyways class ended, and we were taken out for "the best pizza in the world" by our professor and her friend-fixer.

the pizza was pretty good ill admit, too heavy on the cheese, and a little light on the sauce, but plenty of dough (which i find the most important part of a pizza). this was kind of a clusterfuck of a celebration, partly for one of the girls' birthdays and partly for Dia de Amigos here in Argentina. after piling out of the pizza shop all twenty-some of us dispersed and went our respective way home. our homestay guy prepared food, and then dipped out to go celebrate Dia de Amigos with his amigos. right now plans are haphazardly being slapped together for the evening, we will see, if youre lucky youll get a latenight post from me.
