Hi everyone,
On Monday, November 19th I went with Kyla to fusion brew and to the mall right after school. I was happy to hang out with her again, after a while that we hadn't hung out. She is one of my personal driver (exchange student has at least one). She is the super nice girl that picks me up and drives me to school every single day haha. I love her!
On Tuesday, I hung out with Maddy and Katie. We went to get a milkshake, then we just talked and talked and talked😅. They are two sisters that are on my swimming team and by now I consider my sisters haha.
On Wednesday, Thanksgiving break finally started!
On Thursday 22nd, it was Thanksgiving day! My host family and I went to Springfield (around an hour away from where I live) where my host mum's grandparents live. We just hung out and ate all day. We ate the typical food: turkey, green beans, smashed potatoes, stuffing, and pie. It was a good day!
Thanksgiving day is really important, and I'm sad that we don't celebrate it in Italy because it makes you think about all the people and all the things that you are thankful for.
This year...
I'm thankful for my Italian family who gave me the oppurtunity to live the best experience of my entire life, who trust me, and support me everyday.
I'm thankful for my American family who have been treating me like their own daughter since the moment that they chose me.
I'm thankful for all the people that I've met here and that are making my year super amazing.
I'm thankful for my swimming team, the best team that I could ever ask for who cheered for me in every meet.
I'm thankful for all the people that I have met over these last 17 years, even though they are on the other side of the world.
I'm thankful for all the new things that I'm learning everyday and all the things that I will learn.
