Feliz Accion de Gracias!

Today is a day to be thankful! And I have so much to be thankful for!
This year has been so exciting, I am so thankful for this opportunity to be down here in Argentina learning new things!
Even though there are bugs in the dorm, nasty food in the caf , and no air conditioning for the 100+ degree weather, I wouldn't trade it.

Today has been an interesting Thanksgiving, i must say. I had my two last finals today, so most of the day was spent studying and taking tests.
Tonight ACA put on a TG dinner for all of us, plus a small program where we could say what we were thankful for, or what God has done in our lives lately.
It was really nice. We all realized that, although we all associate TG with traditions and family, it's really about giving thanks for whatever place, or situation you are in, and for the people that you're with.

Anyway, the food wasn't what we're used to, but they somehow (i have no idea from where) rounded up some delicious pumpkin pies for dessert. It was a little bit of home, and made it extra special. :)


Happy Thanksgiving!!
I am thankful for YOU!
