School is officially finished! And my grades were not that bad actually. I passed all my classes with C+'s to B's. Pretty good for a hardcore semester. Now I get to chill in Valdivia with my friends and host family. Yesterday was really fun when we went to the "campo" Gustavo's dad's mother's home in the country of Valdivia. It was hermosa. A spanish word for gorgeous land that describes the country side best. It was huge and had a beautiful view of a blue/green lake with the mountains, and green trees surrounding the lake. It was peaceful, and I loved just staring at the lake for long periods of time. We had an "asado" a bbq of sorts and I had lamb. It was different but good. I rather enjoyed it. And I listened to a lot of chilean spanish. They thought I was one of them until I told them I was from the states, but they enjoyed asking me about my travels and about Washington. I really miss it and my mountain. Also I'm listening to Dosed by The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and it is a really good song look it up. I love going to family events because it makes me feel like I'm home. I miss my family so much. But soon I will see them. We also had the most epic storm ever. It rained and hailed so hard a little smaller than a penny in size. And there was thunder and lightening. I love storms so this made me excited. Also Strawberry Wine is delicious.
It's funny because it is summer here, so I'm celebrating Christmas in the summer and I just have to say X-mas songs in the summer, weird. haha But it should be an interesting celebration. I've got to do some shopping, but think I'll go look at the street venders and their crafts or something. Thanks again for the support everyone. hearts!
