Chile has a day for everything, a day for the police, for the teachers, for mothers, fathers, saints, and even students. They love to party.
I was very unclear about what exactly was going to happen and was thoroughly entertained by the result. School started a bit late and the students were served completos for breakfast, I think this picture speaks for itself as to why Chileans are the picture of health.
Then they spent a few hours doing activities, which really means they were dancing to reggaeton very dirtily on school property. I think that speaks to why so many of my students are with child.
The funniest part of the day was the show that the teachers put on for the students. They went all out, there were hilarious costumes, funny skits, dances, and even a circus. I participated in a hip hop/country line dance and it was pretty funny to be dancing for over 1000 high school students. It was very strange because afterwards people were saying congratulations to me like I had accomplished something, when really all I did was do what I love and pretend it was for the students. That's like eating a blizzard for the calcium, I tried that joke out here but no one knew what a blizzard was. It's okay if you feel sorry for them too.
