The word for "mall" is universal


Yeah, so apparently the vocab I learned in high school, "Centro commercial", is wrong..el mall..is the correct word.
So today we went to the mall. You'd think that it would be like a regular mall...no..it's a SUPER mall. Like..two buildings each building with four floors. yeah. it was super grande...but I found a towel, so that's good. I can stop using someone else's.

Today, we basically spent the WHOLE day at the mall. I ended up buying a chilean sim card for my phone..so I will officially not have the same number that I originally had. Now I can call a taxi or Dani or Oly when I need too. Which is good. I can skype everyone else. We have wifi which is faster than the wifi at kappa so it's great.

After going to the mall, we went home and ate lunch (at 3:30) which is the chilean big meal of the day. This time,I didn't get criticized for eating too little, I think I accidentaly offended them at first, I just was not hungry..especially at 10pm...but I am trying to eat more.

My host family is soooooooooooo nice. I couldn't ask for a better family. Tomorrow I think I am going to valpo with Dani to explore a bit because in Vina college students don't have classes on Fridays. She also does Horse Therapy with the kids from my hospital so I am going wither her to that too. I say "i think" because I only understand 40% of what's going on.

Also, only in Chile would you put mayonase on everything..rice...lettuce..everything. Mayonase and apple vinagre and salt.
haha.
LOVE YOU ALL!
We will end with a foto of Chipita. Well, it's at the beginning. I tried. :)
