super long day...

wow. so yesterday may have been the longest day of my life. but it was also super great! lets see... what did we do. we woke up, got ready, ate breakfast, got on the bus (which has been super crowded the last few days because the other bus disappeared...we've been trying to figure out what happened and we decided that the driver must just be sick so he called all the people who take his bus and told them to ride with don Luis instead ha ha), got to school and were only a few minutes late to class, then for lunch we went to am/pm (a convenient store that is awesome) and got the coolest yogurt ever with a banana then we used our jar of peanut butter that we're trying to eat from my birthday.
after lunch we went to el museo de oro in downtown san jose with our favorite tour guide dennis. i really need to get a pic of dennis... or even better... a video of him laughing! his laugh is priceless. anyways... geez i get side-tracked easy don't i? um... the museum. it was okay. i was really expecting more out of it and wasn't too impressed. so after the museum we decided to venture off the the Temple! we had been planning on going for the past two weeks and it just hasn't worked out so we all wore our dresses and decided that it must happen. and so off we went. and it's a good thing we left when we did (around 2:00) because baptisms were at 7 and we had no idea how long it would take us to get there. so after two buses and a taxi we made it. and oh it was great. we ended up getting there with a ward so they let us join them. we also met a family there from milcreek utah... small world eh?
so after our super long journey to Heredia (the part of san jose that the temple is in. i don't really understand san jose... cause there are a million different areas of san jose. guadalupe, montelimar, san pedro, carimol... i just don't know), it was time to head home... cause it was 9:00. dark. sketchy. but we were super happy after our temple visit so we weren't even that worried about getting back, even though we still had a good hour or so of homework to do. so we decided to take a taxi and not try out the buses that late. the kind security guard at the temple called us a few and we all piled in (there were 6 of us). our driver thought we were hilarious. and by we i mean brittany. she was dancing and saying 'hablo spanglish, yo hablo spanglish' yea... we were tired.
we got home around 10... ish. ate some dinner from our lovely dinner trays, showered fast and worked on our homework. we both had to get our oral presentations ready for today. bad idea to leave that to the last minute cause we both had to talk for ten minutes. solo en espanol. but we couldn't keep our eyes open. so we fell asleep around 11:00 but set the alarm for 5:30 AM (like how i put the am there... yea emma, we woke up in the 5ives) so we could finish up. and its a good thing we did cause we would not have woken up.
so this morning was a bit rough. cramming in as much homework as possible and getting ready at the same time. but we did it and the presentations weren't even that terrible. kinda funny actually. then after class we had a rough time with our order for lunch, or actually the people had a rough time with our order and we were just too tired and frustrated to complain. so we ate this food that we didn't even order. lame. oh well it was pretty decent. then we went back to the school and i did have of my oral presentation for next thursday... no more procrastinating for me. we decided we should walk home to vent a little (we were having a rough day... probably from lack of sleep and stress from the presentations). we wanted to go to this perimercado by our house to see if it was amazing or not. and it was. probably our new favorite store. and the funny thing is that its just like any normal grocery store. not sure why we liked it so much, but we spent an hour in there just walking up and down all the isles. fun. entonces, we headed down the street a la casa to pack for our excursion tomorrow. that's going to be an adventure.
