This month seemed to fly by, i can´t believe i´ve been here for four months already! i hope everything´s well in the states, and you´re all dealing with the icy cold weather while i´m burning up down here in mexico!! it´s actually gotten a bit cooler, but just at night so we all cover up. school´s over for me until january and has been for a week. i´ve finally found the right group of friends and we go out all the time, to the beach, to the restaurants, to the clubs to dance.. whatever we find to do. i´ve learned so much it´s unbelieveable. with rotary, we´ve recently had a presentation from an exchange student from brasil who´s leaving wednesday, and tonight we´re going to have a party for her. we´re running a drive to collect blankets and sweaters in this supposedly cold season for people in the state of oaxaca with my club, as well. i´ve been getting ready for christmas with my host mother buying decorations, sewing pillows and couch covers (never sewed in my life), and she´s teaching me new recipes and customs. after a few problems with my family situation and town gossip, everything´s finally getting on the right track. little by little every day gets better, i learn more, and become more mexican.
Happy holidays!!¡feliz navidad y prospero año nuevo!
