Yesterday I passed the 50 mark and now its 49 days until I come home! Its crazy November has gone by incredibly fast and next week it will be December... Over the last 3 weeks or so I have been really busy!
I got to participate in the Torneo Nacional for basketball. I was asked to play in the Under 20s team for my club so it was a whole new team. We played against teams from Chile as well as teams from Neuquen and others from different regions. It took place over two days but I couldn't go to the second day. The day I went we had 3 games and though we didn't win we came within a 2 or 3 points in the last game. The day was made even more tiring by the 37 degree heat for most of the day! At the end of the day we got souvenirs towels as well.

on their own! |
Another big event was the Despedida for my school. As I've mentioned before a Despedida is an end of year party that each school hosts. The year 'cuatro' (year 12) organizes it all for the leaving year 'quinto' (year 13), and everyone that goes from the school 'Cemn 107' has to dress up! It is a really great event and the majority of people dressed up which was great! Ours started at 12.30 and went until 5am. As it was our despe we got the next day off which was great! Then the Friday when we had school we did a breakfast for quinto as well.

NEWS FLASH It's starting to heat up! We have had consistent days of 29-30 degrees and this is just typical spring weather they tell me... The hottest I've experienced is 37 so far, but as soon as we hit December the temperature rises again and then it's at it's peak through the end of Dec and the month of January!
Here are some photos of the food here and others I haven't posted!
