Edward Cullen, le quiero!

It was starting to feel like my life in the United States and my life in Chile had nothing in common and a lot of things are different. I'm living on a beach, speaking spanish, going out on way too many week nights. People look at you like a crazy person when you try to shake their hand but kissing a stranger is perfectly acceptable. I don't have a boyfriend (around to hang out with) but I do have younger siblings. Acceptable personal space is about half of that in the US and the majority of the people here smoke which results in people smoking in your face. Making out in public spaces in the norm and cell phones don't charge you by the minute but by the second (maybe that's why Chileans talk so darn fast).

Right when I was starting to think that there was nothing here I could relate to my life back home, I saw my little 13 year old sisters face when someone mentioned a Volvo. Why? Because Edward Cullen drives a Volvo in Crepusculo! Duh! And for everyone out there who is wondering what in the world Crepusculo is, it is Twilight in Spanish. And to make the situation even funnier, she sings Justin Bieber in the shower.

I guess only so much can change on the other side of the world. Pictures of my new room to come as soon as my camera charges.
