all she needed was a hot shower and hot food.

*** from yesterday***

I’m typing this on May 13th at 10:37 pm local time.
I have been in Puebla for about 5 hours. Its super pretty here.
The university is called UDLAP for short.
I’m not really in the mood to describe the scenery or colorful buildings.


I’m just feeling like an outsider and Its not a nice feeling.
Most of the other students I’m with are in the same building, myself and a few others are spread out into other rooms.

At first I thought it would be great. Then I got to my bare room and noticed there was nothing on the other side.
The only thing I saw was a massive clock on my supposed roommates closet. I had to hurry to get to dinner so I just crammed all my stuff into the closet and managed to get my tinny lock on the door and left.

Made it to the caff and had several things on my mind.
1- My room is sure far from everyone else .
2- I feel like everyone is done eating by now.
3- Sucks to be me. Being dropped off last and alone ain’t cool…
4- Aka: UNINTENTIONAL SHAFT.

I’m probably just being an emotional baby. Then after the tour and such, a few girls and I got some snacks. After that I just took my snacks to my room. Noticed the bedding had finally come and that I actually had no roommate.
Many of the Mexican students are finishing up there term and moving out.
Sounds nice, right? But after arriving To Mexico City, taking a bus to Puebla and missing the hot dinner, I have no one to vent to. Or even talk to for that matter. The other girls ( which are probably Mexican) are part of this rez thing and are packing to leave. There are boxes and bottles in the common area. I know the feeling of just wanting to go home and having things to do. So why the hell would they want to socialize if they are just leaving by Monday? Makes sense…but it sucks to be in my position…

Well tomorrow will be a better day. Hopefully I will get a hot meal and my Internet code. I actually wouldn’t mind doing something too. Friday, we are touring the campus and receiving our Id’s as well. Hopefully people want to come visit me in my dorm or go out. I need a hug actually.
I feel like someone coped out when they hugged me today and its been on my mind ever since. Hug me like you love me and don’t be embarrassed. I feel slightly ripped off and forgotten.

Being a girl sucks in times like this.
I’m not too sure, but I hear a bass from out the window….There is probably a night club near by ….

Tip: Depressing or mellow music really isn’t going to enhance this feeling. John Mayer and the majority of my ITunes needs to die.


I should take a shower and realize there are worst things in the world.

Urg.


About 45 minutes later:

Feeling more myself. I showered and talked to Riley. I think I just needed to talk to a human being or something. Also let him know I’m alive.

I also tried my new live clean, two in one shampoo / conditioner. Its sulfate free, among other things, very similar than the keratin shampoo I used after my keratin hair treatment. The benefit of this brand, is that it is less expensive than the keratin variety plus I prefer the smell and lather.

I just took a walk through the kitchen. I have noticed that throughout the airport, streets and even at UDLAP, the garbage is divided in 3. There are the recyclables, compost and paper. I believe those are the three. Even in my floors kitchen, there is a tray for each type of trash. I love that. Its something a more developed country, such as Canada should be doing on a wider scale and have it be mandatory.

In addition to my first green observation, there are many many signs reminding students to use water wisely and turn the lights off. I feel as though, it is not reminded to us Canadian as often . Last comment from this area of interest would be the vegetarian organic cafeterias on campus. We don’t have free access to it, but I would love to check it out. Food is considerably less expensive here, so I imagine the this cafeterias is a little pricier for Mexican standard, but not something unreasonable for Canadian standards.
