So today is our last day in Varadero, Cuba. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day! No matter all the drama we've been through in the past seven days I can say I've had a blast! I'm going to miss the cycle of red-flag-yellow-flag waves, the salty water, the plastic bag-looking jellyfish, the casual wave riding pelicans, the too-strong drinks, the stars, the overly friendly resort staff, the drunken old men, the burning Cuban sun, the ocean view our balcony gave us, the towel sculptures our maid left us, the sand between my toes and deep in my belly button, the erra moments, ALL the drunken sluts and man whores, the margarita pizzas, the resorts homeless dogs, the fish in the pond, the smell of constant Cuban cigar smoke, the feeling I get when I see "Vinny", our sand boobs and sand dicks, and most of all I'm going to miss the feeling I found here of not giving a shit and releasing all my problems.
Gracias Cuba, te amo!
So yesterday was St.Patty's day and it was full of drama and rain. Jenna's guy Kel totally ditched her and so our night was spent drunkenly walking back and forth from bar to house to the discotheque. Can I just say to sum up the night: boys suck most of the time apart from Caroline's wheel.
Honestly, I had no intention to bring --- drama down to Cuba with me but obviously its me and so it's unavoidable.
I nee to change my ways...
Now I've got a fucking rash on both my hands, got freckles on my nose which is mad peeling, my voice is gone, again, and I have sun spots all over my arm. But I guess it's all going towards a good cause... being tanned!
[Feelings better at this point and after a good cry]
Random facts I found out tonight:
1.) PEIs name is Andrew
2.) Andrew is 17 and in grade 11 because...
3.) He had brain surgery last year.
4.) Andrew is epileptic
5.) His birthday is November 13th (--- and ---'s bdays are also in November)
6.) PEI has a drink called Moon Shine/ Firewater which is 95% alcohol (soooo illllleeeegaal its nawt funny)
7.) I'm still in love with --- for no good reason.
8.) I wish Anna and Nigel were here... bffls (shout out)
[side note: only half of that is true now]
9.) I miss Toronto a lot (I don't think I'll ever move away)
10.) My name is Ashley Gaete and I YELL when I'm angry.
I have such 'great' friends. Seriously, you guys completely ditched me just cuz the PEI boy, Andrew, wanted to chill. So I was LEFT ALONE with him. This must be a complete joke to you guys but honestly its sad. He really is a nice guy (just saying). But FUCK! Jesus what if he wasn't? What if he was a complete sketch who raped me because none of you were there?! This is the fucking SEAN situation on my bday allllll over again! Why does this always happen to me every time? Maybe it's cuz I'm not a bitch[hahah thats a good fucking joke]? So while you guys are fucking clubbing it up, I'll be here in my room, bored and confined to my fucking room cuz I told him I felt really tired and sick. I hope I'm in the back of your minds while your tongues are in the back of some next guy's throat. I hope tomorrow will be a different fucking night cuz right now I feel like I came to Cuba ALONE! It doesn't feel great.
Just went horseback riding. Best 20 Cuban pesos I've ever spent. My inner thighs, lower ass and lady regions hurt [like a bitch]. Guess that's what you get for straddling something for an hour! ;)

Jenna's Hickey
So last night was very legit! Super smashed. I actually don't know how I made it back from he discotheque to my beach house. We chilled with these guys from Ottawa. Apparently they're our age but they kinda looked young to me. So our name for this group of fellas is Ottawa. They consist of Sens Jersey, Orange Shirt, Blue Shirt, and Snake Bites. Orange shirt was a man whore cuz he was wheeling that blond chick from Toronto who was totally wasted. Later at the club Jenna got sloppy seconds with that guy but apparently he was good.
(Side note: Jenna's hickey HAHAHAH! OWWWOWWW)
Tamara wheeled the guy in the blue. Krista and Meghan danced with Sens Jersey but only Krista hooked up with him. And contrary to popular belief, no one hooked up with Snake Bites.
I wonder what that's like though... hooking up with someone with snake bites?
So I woke up at 6am still drunk. I lost my voice again and like an hour ago the old man who I danced with walked by. I still think he's around 40 but Tam thinks he's 60! Whatever.
Last night I also danced with PEI guy aka SPIKE FAIL. He was okay until he grabbed my ass. He did that to Tamara too... He was really excited that we all were from TDOT, I guess it's cuz Prince Edward Island gets boring.
Tonight we're getting messy again/going clubbing. But I don't think I'll get shittered again just cuz tomorrow is St.Patty's... that way I can go CRAZY =D
