This Thanksgiving turned out to be really nice. It was strange to be celebrating without my family because I had never spent a Thanksgiving without them, but being around my friends here definitely made it easier.
Veritas University threw a Thanksgiving dinner for all of the American exchange students, and the food was DELICIOUS! I was really impressed. We had turkey, green beans, garlic mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, and rolls.
After eating, we had a latin dancing party! I am really thankful for times like these in my life. It was just pure fun. An open-mouthed-smile kind of night. One of my favorite parts of the night was seeing my 70-something year old cooking teacher dance. She was amazing! She has some moves!! I hope I'm dancing like her when I get to be her age.
So now the Christmas craze is in full swing here. :)
Happy Thanksgiving girly! I am glad you had a good time :) When we both come back to the US we need to hang out and swap stories. I have also been thinking about actually making some progress on learning to play the guitar if you want to help me? I'll talk to you soon, pura vida!
ReplyDeleteThanksgiving without you was different. But we are grateful you had a group gobble there! We will see you soon!
