You are probably like "why is she posting this a week later? she is usually so good about her blog posts." And you are absolutely right. But, I have misplaced my camera cord, so it is a little bit more difficult for me to get the pictures on my computer.
Anyway, it was really fun to see all of them again (<3 if that's you) but it felt like the beginning again. When no one spoke any Spanish, and we were all either planning on partying, or just trying not to get sent home. I have evolved enough over the past 3 months, that Chile feels like home. Or at least a home. And it was not exactly pleasant to be reminded of when I felt like a stranger.
But I really do love talking to the other intercambios. I love their stories. I love hearing that I'm not crazy. And most of all, I love talking to people who are like me.
We had a talent show, and I was really worried about it because I thought it was going to be, like, formal, and I don't have a stage talent. But it was really informal, and people did all sorts of random stuff. I danced the macarena and the Chacha Slide (which is apparently just a gringo thing).
It was fun. We also made s'mores (also a gringo thing) with kinder, gingerbread cookies, and weird tasting marshmallows. <3 :)
