First week here in Argentina!! :)

So today will be the first week of being far away from my friends and family and of course my little town bend! I will start off by talking about my adventure to Argentina. First I had an orientation in Miami which was fun in the way I got to meet new people but boring since I learned pretty much the same thing I already knew but oh well guess they really want the information drilled into your head! Second we had our flight to argentina from Miami oh and btw the Miami international airport is huge!! As soon as we got on the plane I realized there was no turning back that this was soon going to be my new life! I sat next to my new friend Stevie which was good because it was a 9 hr flight. The plane was really big but it was nice. I have never gone on a international flight so it was exciting! The flight attendants were dressed very nice and they offered so much food haha! On the plane you could choose many different movies which was nice and I got to watch my favorite movie Ever the notebook :) during the whole flight everyone on exchange to Argentina slept maybe 2 hrs at the most so we were all very tired! Then finally I looked out the window and realized we were landing! We all got super excited and anxious to get off the plane. We arrived in Buenos Aries and then took a bus to our next orientation at this place with a bunch of rooms and an auditorium it was cute! We stayed there for 2 days. Next I had to take a 10 hr bus ride on a bus called felchabus haha to reconquista. The bus was big and the seats would fold out like a bed with pillows and blankets! The bus even had a lady who would serve you food or get you anything you need but remember everyone only knows Spanish so to ask for something was kind of hard. I rode the bus with a boy from brazil and a girl from Thailand. So it was interesting trying to communicate with them :) the next thing I knew I was awoken by alenna the gril from Thailand saying that we were here! I woke up fast and started getting so nervous not knowing what to say to my family. We arrived at the bus station and outside was a sign with kids saying welcome it was so cute! My family was standing there with a sign and they were so excited to see me that everything I was nervous about went away! We then had to drive to calchaqui! I then finally arrived at my families house and it was perfect! They are so sweet and caring! Anyways so far since I have been here I have met many new people since im the first exchange student from the united states to ever come here. Everyone stares at me and asks so many questions! I have had mate a lot of mate we have it ever afternoon with friends. I watched the Argentina football or soccer team play against Sweeden and we won 3 to 1 :) me and my host brother Franco went running the other day which was nice so I could get my mind of everything! I have done so many things it's hard to remember everything but my sister claudi has shown me around and we walk everywhere! The people who drive here are crazy they don't stop ever and drive how they want it's pretty dangerous. But tonight I'm going to take my first dance class!! Oh and the times for everything here is way different like for dinner we eat at 1030 and then go hangout with friends haha it's fun but I get tired! But anyways its very nice here and my Spanish is getting better but it gets frustrating not knowing what people are saying! I start school this Monday and I'm soo nervous :/ wish me luck :)
