Well I have an excellent excuse for not writing. I hung out with my friend for the past two days. I went to my friend, Carmen's resturant around 6 on Friday. It is called El Campo Real. I got their just as her little brother, Jesús's birthday party was ending. He is now 5. We went to the movies with her cousins, her little brothers, and her exchange student brother, Johnny the Gun from Thailand. We saw the Santa Claus 3. It wasn't very good. I wouldn't recommend it. I ended up sleeping over. We watched Pirates of the Carribean, but [View Full Entry]

Mi Primera Quinceañera North America » Mexico » Nayarit » Tepic
¡Hola! Last night was by far the best night of my life her in México so far. I was sitting at the computer around 5 when my host mother asked me if I wanted to go to a Quinceañera, which is a 15-year-old girls birthday party. It is very fancy, so I got all dressed up and we were off the the church at 6. We first had to stop and buy a gift for Blanca, La Quinceañera. We got her a pretty little necklace, bracelet, and earring set. The first part of the Quinceañera was held in the church. It [View Full Entry]

Busy Weekend North America » Mexico » Nayarit » Tepic
¡Hola mis amigos! I had a very busy weekend! Friday On Friday, I had the day off from school. A very nice break I must say. I was online and my friend, Gilberto, invited me to a play at his acting school. It was a really beautiful play. Its called Jesús el Hombre Luz or Jesus the man of light. As you can guess, it was about Jesus's life. It had dancing, singing, and acting. I was really just awesome. I left for my café at 6 because my friend (well actually no one) didn't know where my house was. We [View Full Entry]

Today North America » Mexico » Nayarit » Tepic
¡Hola! ¿Cómo estan? Yesterday was the test in physic. I don't think I did good because I left two problems blank. We are cover a lot of formulas, like the Laws of Newton and such. It is a hard subject in English, and nearly impossible in another language. I have been lucky and gotten pretty good grades so far because my teacher is really good at helping me. Unfortunately halfway through the test he had to leave. I will just need to get a better grade on the next test. Today I took my test in Orientacion Vocacional. This class is [View Full Entry]

¡Por fin tenemos la posada de navidad! which translates too We finally had the Christmas party! It started well, but ended kinda crummy. We went first, and by we I mean the singers.

Oh thats right I forgot to mention we had a Día de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) party and no one from my family showed up. Oh well, ni modo! Anyway [View Full Entry]

My Weekend North America » Mexico » Nayarit » Tepic
Friday Didn't really do anything. I went to school and took my first Literature test. This is a big accomplishment for me because it is COMPLETELY in spanish, and you know what, I think I aced it thanks to a little help from my dictionary and the teacher. Then I went home and ate with the family. My aunt's kids had come so it was a FULL house. Then I went and practiced the music at 4. I was gonna go to a party with my friends from the music group but it was too expensive. I did rent a movie [View Full Entry]

Yesterday North America » Mexico » Nayarit » Tepic
Well I spent most of the day online and VERY bored...although I did help my family put up some Christmas decorations. My two brothers came from Guadalajara, but it isn't that different cuz they are only here to eat really. They have classes and friends here, so they are like NEVER home. Fabiola and I worked on the decorations, our mom worked on the cooking, and Felix (the maid) cleaned the house...exciting stuff right! Anyway after lunch I went to the movies with my uncle and cousin (my cuz is like 30 and my uncle 60). It was actually a really [View Full Entry]

My First Entry North America » Mexico » Nayarit » Tepic
Ok, I realize I have been here in Tepic for four months (wow! still can't believe it). I decided I will stop being lazy and write. I will try to sum up what I have done so far. Pay attention, this could get long! Family I figured the first thing I should talk about is my family. Normally I live with my mom and little brother in ummm, Plymouth Mass, but I am originally from Wrentham. Lately we have had a stepfather, but for the longest time it was just the 3 of us. Now I live with my mom, Gabriela, [View Full Entry]
