HEY THERE.
As usual the weeks and been filled with stuff! Just yesterday I finished a 20 page assessment for my Hip-Hop class (which is also why I chose to write my blog now). Last week I had Thanksgiving vacation and I went with my family to RISD (Rhode Island School of Design) in Providence. Soo much fun. It was my second time being there and I got to see my funny/artsy host brother doing a video shoot for one of his project. The Thanksgiving day was a truly untraditional Thanksgiving-day. Usually you are together with your family all day eating/drinking getting ready for the big meal (Turkey, mashed potatoes, salads, cranberry sauce, apple pie and pumpkin pie). Sounds good doesn't it? Well as lucky as I am I actually two weeks before the real Thanksgiving day, I got to experience one at my French exchange student friend's house. They were going to Spain to visit their daughter on Thanksgiving, so they chose to have a pre-thanksgiving at their house. ANYWAYS, back to my actual story. My real Thanksgiving-day was fairly unusual. We first went to the beach to shoot Martín's (my hostbrother) film, then a Peruvian restaurant and finally went to see a movie about Hawaii. Kind of exotic huh? And then we were driving home and entered Vermont the landscape suddenly changed into a Christmas landscape. Snow everywhere and decorations hanging in every shop. You really do get to see everything in America!
My first Thanksgiving!
Turkeeeeeeeeey!
