So I'm not even sure where to begin, but i think this'll have to be short, since i have a decent amount of homework to do, and also want time to hang out with people. So i've been doing a lot of baking for the past week, starting on last tuesday, when I and my host family and relations made chocolate chip cookies. Then on thanksgiving we made apple pies. And then yesterday, we made chocolate cake with homemade chocolate frosting (they'd never heard of actually making this), for my host sister's birthday, on Dec. 1. She turned 15, and is having her quinceaƱera in February. All the times have been a lot of fun. I've also been hanging out with my friends and family a decent amount, and i really want to stay a few days longer until Dec. 12, which is the Day of the Virgen of Guadelupe, but I have to go back to Oaxaca on the 9th for presentations, etc. Also, last week i got quite a few interviews for my project, and it was actually a lot of fun chatting and hanging out with the bus drivers of the university. On Saturday, me and 2 of my friends dressed up as cowgirls, and went to a party, which was also a lot of fun. Oh, and yesterday, since it was theh 1st of December, we decorated the house and put up the tree and other christmas things. I guess that's when they always do it. And, on Sunday, I got to go to a rally for some delegate of my colony. All pretty cool. I think that mostly says my last couple of weeks. They've really been quite full, but there's too many things that I can't remember them all. So, I'll add more stuff if I have time, and happen to think of it. And I'll try to get some pictures up, at some point. See you!
