i have no internet in the house so i haven´t been able to write. things here are beautiful: cooking lunch to eat in the park, costume parties, conversations, bicycling, concerts at the huerta, planning the trip to mendoza, the sun, cookies, banana ginger nut smoothies, living in friend´s houses, chinatown, hunts through the city for vegan icecream etc.

dude i've been gone for a year! the past weeks have been really nice, here's what's happening a little.
back in june it was aneta's bday and me and this old man named mario made 20 pizza doughs and then only about 20 people came to her party and spoke esperanto all night playing with balloons so we have had pizzas coming out of our ears.
i made these ones for sean's birthday last tuesday. which was a really funny party that we had here too and all these people from a hiphop collective here in the city came and freestyled for us all night.
and it snowed! man it was so fun! we ventured out into the cold that night and had a snowball fight with some neighborhood kids and ran around for a couple of hours and i am now really sick but igual it was really special for it to have happened. except for all the homeless people who died and the fact that it's snowing here means climate change is pretty real. everything feels pretty real lately.
and i redid my room and have a place to hang things and an art corner and some more space.
and the huerta! it really sucks and the government has been trying to turn it into a park and bulldoze it. turning a functioning growing community garden into a fenced in "green space" seems pretty ridiculous but I guess its always like that. so we've been having some demonstrations in front of the Jefaturia but mostly just still going and having all sorts of music and food and workshops. sometimes i feel really uncomfortable there not really being part of the scene but also i'm meeting them and still i think its my favorite part of bs as. this was today:
my friend Fede singing made up songs
composting.
Facu and Erny with my bike in the elevator
.and they were the best. the one on the left is who taught me silkscreening.
really good saxophone
no place is safe from an impromptu moshpit when vegan argentines are around.
and my plans right now are looking like this: hang out here for the rest of july, finish this class on the marques de sade, start going to some free classes that the university of the Madres de la Plaza de Mayo offer and try not to freeze. patrick comes the second week of august. i can't wait. and then niki and sean and jess all leave. but i've been hanging out with this new boy named Orlando from Bogota and today i met this girl who studies art and wants to hang out and i'm getting to know the huerta kids more so i won't be totally alone. then in september i take all my final exams and finish up with school here. then erny and me are gonna go to Mendoza and visit Niki and the go to this farm there where i'm planning on staying at least a month. then i guess come back and enjoy spring and summer here and then december 22nd i come home!
