Caipirinhas and Daiquiris

Weekends are THE moment in my week when I get to do the things I actually enjoy. When we’re in regular classes it’s difficult to go to a bar, see a movie or just stay home and do nothing, because my schedule doesn’t allow me to do a lot. Anyway, our campus has been on strike and “students-occupied” by the last two weeks, so there are special activities, forums and assemblies. For example, this Friday I went to a lecture about the educational crisis, and the gests were Carlos Pérez (a physicist and a philosopher) and Mario Sobarzo (OPECH). The subject it’s interesting, and the discussion between them and the audience was very rich. That night a friend of mine, a former music classmate, invited me to a party in her new apartment to catch up and drink caipirinhas, I don’t get to see or talk to her a lot, so we stayed up all night!!

This Saturday was a very “musical” day. I always have piano lessons that day, right after lunch. I didn’t study a lot this week, so the class was just ok…I need to dedicate more time to it!!!!. Then, at night, I went to a concert in the Baquedano theatre because the played Schuman’s Piano Concerto, among others things. Edith Fischer was the pianist, I’ve never heard her so I didn’t know how it was going to be…but it turned out that she’s great musician with clean technique and a sensitive and moving interpretation. In the concert, Camila (my best friend) and I came across Carola - quite a surprise!, I haven’t seen her I a long time- so we went to Bellavista to drink Daiquiris…mmmm, delicious.

Well, it’s Sunday now and, as usual, I’m in my pyjamas doing all the things I didn’t do or read during the week, I bet you do the same thing in "fomingos"...
