Aztecs vs. Army

 S-D-S-U! S-D-S-U! Aztecs fight!

Yesterday was the first game of football season. Everything was amazing. Before the game, there is something called "tailgate". It consists in hanging out around the stadium before the kick-off. There were so many things for students: free food, free t-shirts and many other give-aways from the companies that sponsor the games.

I got some sunglasses, a cool SDSU T-shirt, lipbalm and some pens :) Not bad, hu? It was sooo crowded and it was very hot. Also, we got a removable tatoo with SDSU symbol on our cheeks.

The game? Well, I have to admit I don't know the rules. So... I don't really understand everything that is going on. The best? Everything is a party: music, band, cheerleaders... it is just awesome! You can take a look in this video I made (the quality is not very good... next time it will be better, I promise!).

Point Loma

Last weekend was great. I spent it with my parents :) We visited Point Loma, one of the nicest places to see San Diego with a very nice view. It is also a military base national monument: Cabrillo, so cell phones don't work. There many informational videos from the European "conquistadores" and about the wildlife of the area.

I'm pretty sure one may see whales during the winter from there. One could find detailed information about whales and they also played an educational video at the Visitors Center. We stayed there for a couple of hours... it was so nice to sit on the sun and relax with such a beautiful view. Oh! And it was really windy! So if you go, definetly take a jacket (even in summer)!

On Sunday, we walked around SDSU Campus. It is such a nice and BIG place! Now my parents can image where I am when I talk to them on the phone. This is the first time I've been so much time away from my parents. I'm growing up and even though I'm going to miss them a lot, I'm sure it will be a positive experience for all of us.

After so much walking around, we went to a mexican grill. They are very popular in the San Diego area due to the proximity of Mexico. The portion are HUGE!! No wonder it is so easy to gain weight in this country! In the afternoon we shopped for groceries and we ended up at The Cheesecake Factory. 

Aren't the cakes amazing?

 I wish you all a nice weekend! :)
