On Monday, I had my Listening and Conversation Examen Parcial. The exam wasn't too bad. It basically entailed doing new versions of exercises we had been practicing in class. Sometimes, the audio wasn't really clear, but I think that's part of the challenge(!), but I assumed I did well enough to pass, especially since there wasn't more I could have done to study for it.
That night and last night, I poured over my Economic Development of Argentina notes, which was really boring. But the exam today wasn't that bad, I think. I'm pretty sure I did fine and I'm so glad that it's finished. Next week, I have my midterm in my World Economic History class. I don't think it will be too challenging, but I definitely have a lot of studying to get down this weekend/next week to be ready for it.
My class at UBA is turning out to be quite challenging. Last night, I barely understood what was going on in the first hour and during the second two hours I was just lost. Hopefully, when I have time to get around to readings for that class (after my midterm next week) I'll have a better understanding of everything for that class. Plus, the other kids from my program in that class and I are planning on meeting with our program's tutor for that class (who is also the TA!) sometime in the next week, so I'm sure I'll be caught up before our midterm for that class which isn't until May.
This weekend I'm off to Tandil, for a trip that the program is throwing for us. Originally we were going to Entre Rios, but because of the incidents of dengue in the north, we've changed our locations!
And here's a picture of me from Puerto Madryn:
