I realize I didn't post at all last week, sorry. But in all honestly there was nothing to post about.
TWO:
HAPPY LATE THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!! :)
THREE:
I'm out of things to list so I'm just going to summarize the past couple weeks.
Last week was the beginning of my school finals (my school has it's finals a month before the trimester actually ends. Why? So that people have time to retake any finals they failed... yeah.. I don't really get it either.) Oh course, Thanksgiving was the first day (just my luck isn't it? :)).
Also finals are run differently in at my school, then at Marlette High. In Marlette, two days of exams, one hour you have exams then the next you don't... ect. In my school here, FOUR days of finals, but you only take 2 exams a day. One in your 1st hour and then one in your second to last hour (2 hours to take the exam), the WHOLE time in-between, you study. Then when you finish your 2nd exam your done with school and you can leave. (Oh course the majority of us end up waiting for school to end anyways, but still you get to wander around school for however much time is left.)
Now how did MY finals go.... welll, I don't know all of my scores yet, but I have a general idea how I did overall.
English: Super easy. Passed with a very high grade (Everything I wrote was grammatically correct.. any thing the teacher marks wrong is because I didn't put a verb in the Simple Imperfect and just wrote it in a tense that made sense)
Chemistry: very,very,very,very bad
Biology: not as bad, I think I just passed :)
Sciences of the Contemporary World: I don't know, but I think I did really well
Math: another very,very,very bad exam BUT my super nice teacher gave me a 5 (PASSING!!) because that's a class I need to pass :D (THANK YOU!)
Computers: ...iffy... I think/hope that I passed... we'll see... hahah
Lengua (aka: my spanish class that very similar to our english class): hmm... that's how that went... BUT I was able to answer 3 parts of it.. oh course they were worth the least amounts of points.. but still :)
Philosophy: I made up very philosophical answers for just about every question, including definition (I should get points for effort or at least creativeness)
Moving on... Thanksgiving (Día de Acción de Gracias)... I might of posted it wrong on facebook, not my fault. I was misinformed.
I didn't celebrate Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving, but we were planning on celebrating on Saturday with taco (mmmm, this was not my idea (though I was it was) my family knows me too well :) ) But on Saturday we ended up eating at my grandparents house, so it was post-poned to Sunday.

| The tacos turned out fanastic, as long as you ignored the fact no bean... apparently chile beans don't exist in Spain..? |

Then this tuesday, to celebrate the fact finals were done, me and some of my friends walked to Burger King and ate a ton of deliciousness after school (ps. first time eating fast food in Spain)

And yesterday, we decorated the Christmas tree. (Which reminds of the christmas tree in 'A Christmas Story' because when the lights are on it's a ton of ever changing colors. :D )

And up-coming plans:
Saturday is boooooooooooooked, first I have my weekly volleyball game (these volleyball games in all honesty are really sad. The last team we played only had two people that could overhand serve. But the practices are a blast, everyone plays intense and the practices are a lot like varsity practices even if the games aren't). After that, I'm going to this thing called Scouts with my sister. Apparently it's like Girl Scouts in the US, expect boys and girls are together. But a couple of my friends are in it too, so it should be fun, and after Scouts I'm going to out with my friendssss.

| And finally, my adorable host sister! (Just look at that face! How could you not love it?) :) |
