Weekend

This weekend was mostly spent writing debate speeches. I managed to get a rough draft completed for all of the speeches! Other notable things that happened this weekend was that I cooked lamb and made Russian bread and played rugby. I've been cooking a lot lately, in part because I've been craving flavors of things that my host family doesn't cook and the only way to get those flavors is to make them myself. Its interesting, that my family (and I'm assuming by extension most Chileans) are very particular with what can be sweet and what can't. Thus the lamb I cooked which was sweet and spicy was only a really big hit with me. But that's ok with me.

My rugby game went well, I played with second stringers and I did really will in our game. So well that I got to lead the team cheer after the game (like getting the game ball in the US). Of course I mispronounced the team's name (saying Vekingos instead of Vikingos) but thats besides the point.
