Bowling In Panama

So, Wednesy night we went out with some friends, and of all places we went bowling. If any of yall have ever heard my take on bowling you would kind of get the impression that, well to be nice I am just not fond of it. I think of it as more of a hobby than a sport (I think it's because I spent way too much time down in the WT bowling lanes for work). But, I decided to not a be a kill joy, and go and try to have fun. So we went bowling, and their bowling lanes are on the top floor of one of their buildings and it has a Bennigans up there with them. It was just the craziest thing I have ever seen in my life. When we got off the elivator there really wasnt much to see, it was a crapy wall, and then we turned the corner and started heading up a little ramp and then, I saw it, the bowling lanes. It was the craziest, coolest, nicest bolwing lanes I have ever seen in my life. There were onle 20, but, yes, there is a but, but, they had flat screen TV's for score keeping, 5 jumbo TV's that you could watch while throwing your ball, and the biggest bar that I have seen thats not in a bar. It was crazy, and then on the other side there was Bennigans. So, we got our shoes and went to our lanes, and instead of those ugly uncomfortable chairs, we sat in awesomely comfortabale leather sofas. It was crazy. So we sat down and then we had a Bennigans waiter bring us menus, so we had Bennigans for supper while bowling. Not the usual fatty fried stuff, that we have in the states, but Bennigans. How crazy. Instead of beer, we had margaritas, and awesome cocktails. Crazy. So we bowled for like 2 hours, and together for 5 people for the whole 2 hours, it was $40 plus $2.50 for shoes. I was like that is way cheap. We would have spent like that much each probably in the states. So, I said that to my friend, and she told me that only the rich can afford to go bowling or to the VIP movies because they are too expensive for everyone else. The VIP movies, which I was informed, cost about $6 (which I think is a little cheaper than the states) and whne your in the movie they brings you like hot restaraunt food, like hot wings, and you get to sit in like recliner chairs, so I will def have to go and check that out. And one more thing, which is, yes, crazy, they get to take the alcoholic beverages TO GO if they dont finish them, its like getting a coke or a tea to go. Hmmm, I am sure that would so not work in the states. Oh well, until next time.

College Chapter Done, Moving To a New

Well, as for those of you who do not know, I have moved to Panama for a month, or if you want to get techincal, I will be here till August 1. I am sooo excited to be here, yes, I am going to miss all of my Panhandle friends, and fellow Odessans, but I will try to have as much fun as possible to foget my pain, haha. (just joking, yall all have a special place in my heart). So, while I am here, I will be taking spanish lesson and hanging out enjoying the Panamanian life here. So far, I have decided it is a good place to visit, but not to live. If any of yall know how I am about other drivers and how annouying they are, will they are nothing compared to the way people drive here, they honk all the time which is annouying, and then they see that you are halfway through the intersection and they start driving towards you and stop an inch away from you car to let you pass, or they honk because they are pissed of because you cant move fast enough. I just think I should have brought the Ho down, and I would show them whats good for them, hahaha. Oh well, other than that I do love it here. It is just so interesting. To see how they live and work, and how their normal day is, compared to the tourist side where you really only see the good parts, and really dont have to worry about the language barrier. Being here will make me learn spanish, and when I get home I can order is spanish at mexican resturants and my food will always be perfest and never done worng, because Becca Rocks, (everyone should know that). Also, while I am here, my american phone is not working so I have another number, but, of course I am not that dumb to put my number on the internet, I will let everyone know soon. Well right now I am hanging out at the Embassy, so I will post another blog soon.
