Been a while since I wrote anything on here, and this won't be a long post. This post is simply about waiting. Chilean time is like island time - a bit slow and variable. I am leaving now sometimes means I am leaving now, but also sometimes means I am leaving in an hour, or I am actually not going but don't want to tell you that. On time is actually early, 10min late is on time, and half and hour late isn't really a problem. I am not sure if it is due to this that everything starts late, or that everything starts late so no one is ever in a hurry - chicken and the egg styles. I do know that at midnight on a Friday night I should probably be tucked up in bed instead of waiting for my friends to get to town so we can go out dancing. Of course it doesn't help that I am one of the most impatient people that I know.... Hmmmm, good old Chilean time. Waiting waiting waiting!
