Last Week In Buenos Aires Argentina

Toughest week since I got here. Learned the sad news my grandmother died.  First emotions is always I can't believe she is dead. I'm thinking there is nothing I can do I'm thousands of miles away don't know what to say or do. Started to think about all of the times. I use to go over to her house just to talk to her we had soo many good times. I used to live with her for a while. I remember when I locked the door in the bathroom so no one could get in also did that to the bedroom still don't know why I did that I guess I was bored. Out of all my grandparents she was the one I was closest to. Had to drive her home one day because she was drunk lol. Still gave me money on all of my bdays and other occasions even when I was grown.
The last week went by fast. Hung out with a few friends for the last time there it was nice but I miss them. Leaving buenos aires was mixed feelings. It was bitter sweet happy I'm going to a different country but I'm going to miss the friends i met. The week before I was introduced to some of the best sandwiches I ever tasted. It was called Sacramento de pollo de tomate y queso which is chicken,tomato, and cheese and the other one was Sacramento jamon y queso which is ham and cheese. The sandwiches is so delicious. To give you an idea the bread is sweet like a danish or crossiant only way to describe but even that really does it no justice. Class was cool only had to write two papers for the whole semesters and ended up with an A grade so that was good. Last day was crazy had a lot to do and didn't get to hang out with my dudes but we tried still went out and had an okay. Looking back on my time there I spent a lil too much money than I liked but I did a lot and I enjoyed myself so it was worth it. I tried to take in every moment. It's not that often that blacks can go out the country let alone travel in the states. I made a promise to myself to see more of the world so I'm planning on doing more traveling. Most of us rather spend our money on material things or things that really don't matter. The world is bigger than Cleveland and you owe it to yourself to see it.  The relationships I built I really think we can stay in contact and hopefully meet up in the states. I enjoyed my time in Buenos Aires looking forward to the next chapter in my life.
