Day 2
So...my second day in this beautiful country is almost at a close. My host family is amazing, very nice, welcoming, and understanding. I laugh alot when I have no idea what is being said. It is an adventure. I have met quite a few people, and there are some questions and answers that I am getting very good at (my age, the number of people in my family etc etc). I am also asked if I play sports, and when I say rugby, people don´t really believe it. They only have it for boys here, and today i met someone who plays wing.
I spent a few hours today with a friend of my host sister who is in Michigan (did that make sense?) We laughed at the fact that my dictionary is my best friend...it is already showing it´s use.
I slept until noon today, apparently I was more tired than I thought. I went with Gabby (the friend) and met her prima (cousin) and some of her extended family. One of her aunts speaks English, so she communicated some of the more difficult sentences, and I was asked if i wanted to go see the horses at the military base. I said yes, and saw the place where my host father works. After I came home, we went to another house, where I met another family with 3 older boys, they were super fun...and spent some time looking up words in my dictionary, mostly to insult each other.
Its funny, I decided before I came that I would try to get a tan. Then i realized that was silly, because people here would be darker. That is true in some cases, but not all. Nicole (cousin of Gabby) saw my skin and was so jealous because I was dark :) Haha...oh the irony.
I go to my school tomoro, for a tour and to get a uniform. Tomoro is the first impression...estoy nervosia. ( I am nervous..)
Newho...I think that is all I got for now
ciao
