Thanksgiving!!!

Wow, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!! Hope you all have had your fill of turkey and mashed potatoes and the like :) For me, it was an amazing day because we all had dinner at my teacher´s house and we ate normal food! It is kind of a bummer that we have school, but oh well. We´re actually really close to being done! I have an exam today (which should be really hard), and then one everyday next week: Monday linguísticas, Tuesday literatura, Wednesday historia. But then on Thursday we´re off for our trip around Mexico! We´re going to go all the way to the DF or Districto Federal, so it´s a loooong way in a bus, and no access to the internet, but I´m sure our group will sing and do fun stuff together the Whole way :)

This week has been really fun. Last Sunday I went to more ruins and even a cave that the Mayans used. It was really fun to explore. The ruins of Uxmal are huge and we had a tour that was really interesting. Also we went to Mayapan where we got to climb up all the buildings which was coooool (and probably a little dangerous because it´s really steep). But I loved it.

One thing that´s hard for me to imagine is that I have to leave my new family here in only a few short days. It makes me feel all torn up inside. I´m halfway happy and excited to be done and come home, but the other part wants to continue because it does not feel like the end of November!! Craziness :)

But after this exam, I´ll be done with one class and I´ll be soooooo happy I´ll probably jump for joy when I come out of the classroom :) Unfortunately a little nervous now, but we´ll see how it goes :)

And once again, Happy Thanksgiving, because there is sooooo much to be thankful for :) I love all my family and friends and yesterday was a wonderful day to remember how much God has given me. It makes me smile :)
