the best food of my life...




9.9
My host sister likes high school musical!!!!!!! AND because of pirating, almost all the movie theaters in the entire country are closed because you can buy pirated movies on the street right when they come out for less than 1dollar. SO in reality, I’ll get to own HSM3 and Twilight before you can in the states! Hahaha hurray hahaha
Also, my family has gotten a little bit better/more comfortable. My sister and I went to a cousins house where another student form the states in staying. That family speaks Spanish so I got to use that (I wish I had been placed in that house instead!!! Everyone was so nice, and the mother was hilarious helping us with the alphabet which is soo hard by the way. Such unnatural sounds from the back of your throat.. they sound kind of gross and make me laugh a lot, but its also very hard to figure out the perfect tones and pitches… whew) But it was nice talking with my sister she is very very nice! My mom also talked to me (through translating with my sister) and told me about their first student they ever had and how GREAT she was and how she came back and they love her so muuuuch hahaha (but she spoke French which is unfair because if this family spoke Spanish, I’m sure I’d be the new “best student they ever had”J )
We leave on our first excursion on Friday… we are visiting the 4 dynasties which includes Fez and 3 other cities I don’t quite remember the names of. But it should be very fun and exciting to see some other cities and how they compare to Rabat! I hope to have pictures soon!
Also, considering the only internet connection is oh so slow I feel so out of touch with what’s going on at home! How’s Sarah Paulin’s grandbaby doing these days?

also i believe the address to send me things (haha) is:
CCCL
attn: Jacey Totta
PO box 6291 Rabat institutes
Rabat, 10101

I think that so far it all sounds wonderful...except for sharing a water glass at dinner! I hope it is a colored glass so that you can't see food at the bottom of it. (I'm not easily grossed out but that kind of got to me)

I'll get a package in the mail to you ASAP!!! ...miss you like crazy.
