Hi, I'm Anna and I am living as an exchange student in Cordoba. Argentina.
I am living with a family and attending school here. I arrived July 18th and have been loving every minute of my stay here!
I can't belive that I have to leave so soon! I have been having the time of my life, trying new foods, going to new places, and experiencing a new life.

school!!

SO i hope you can read my blog, cause it wont let me view it.

I started school today. Marcelo, one of the leaders of the exchange student program, took me and the two older brother to school today. we left at 7 am! very early.
i talked with the director for about 5 min, and she put me in the same class as Marco (the oldest brother) the grade is 5th. 6th is the last year in high school. according to my age i should be in that grade but according to my level of spanish i should be in the same grade as Atillio (the 10 year old brother).

Walking in was very embarrassing. Not only am i the only student who isnt wearing a uniform, im the only student who is blonde. EVERYONE was looking at me. people would sneak out of their classes to look threw the window at me! I met some very nice girls in my class. I dont remember all their names. Everyone speaks very very fast, but there is one girl is think her name is Rose, that speaks slowly to me.

The school is very different. you stay in the same class room. FOREVER. from when you first enter the school till when you graduate. the teachers change rooms to teach different subjects. but the student stay in the same room every year.

i am pretty sure i volunteered to play volley ball. (i cnat play volley ball to save my life) but people talk so fast, so i just say si si si. and next thing i know the person next to me asks if i like to play, if i play alot, am i on a team. I am getting picked up tomorrow at 5 to go play. wish me luck!
