Hello everybody! I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving overseas. Here in Argentina it was just like any other day. November was a pretty easy month. I finished school. Both 4th and 5th year went on a picnic for a day. It was wild, by the end of the day all thirty of us were covered in soda. My last host sister, Guadalupe, is in the 5th year which is like being a senior. Well what I'm trying to get at is that almost everybody was crying. Now summer break is here for us. I so glad my new house is equiped with a pool. Really I just been going out meeting new people, laying out by the pool and taking sun, and going out on aventures in the city!

My Spanish is has improved soooooooo much. It just comes natural to me now. Now there are some days where my pronouncation just about sucks. Usually that is just about every morning. I'm not a morning person at all...... So yeah, I'm still going to my spanish teacher every Tue. and Wed. at 5p.m. Her house isn't that far. I just have to walk down Av. Nasca about 10 blocks. I love her, she is more to me than just a teacher. You see she went on an exchange to the USA for a year when she was my age, through Rotary too. So she kind of helps me when I'm feeling down about something. That is very important when you are down, to have someone to talk to.

My second host family is great. There are in a way starting to become my family for real. They are good people. Both of my families were kind. I guess I was lucky. In January I have to move again. It really emotional moving. During three months you grow to care about them. But what I noticed too is that when you change houses you grow with the culture. It is a beautiful thing to experience.
