so Ashlee and I came back to our lovely California on monday night around 11pm. And man, were we glad to be back. We were talking about it, and we both agree that Chicago was nice to visit, but was just not for us. We love the California lifestyle with walking everywhere and TOFU! But Chicago was fun, and now I need to buckle down and start thinking about finishing all the stuff needed for graduating. YEAH!
I live near a long thin park called Parque Forestal. It's really quite a nice park and it has a long stretch of a lane for riding bikes or jogging. And since I have a fear of riding bikes in this city, I jog. It's really pleasent. I usually listen to radioDisney on my mp3 player and jog along to Jonas Brothers, Beyonce, or Julieta Venegas. Great stuff. Yesterday on my jog I noticed that the trees were beginning to change. Fall has finally arrived and I am glad for the change. But as I was jogging through the falling leaves, I began to think about how much I like fall. And I had this special moment when I realized that I want to be here in Santiago, jogging through this park for many falls to come. After the past few weeks of cultural adjustment being a little more painful than normal, this was a nice thought to have.
