Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I thought I'd share this video to give you an idea of the unconventionality of my Thanksgiving experience. It was bizarre to say the least. (Imagine night club music, an assortment of traditional American and Brazilian dishes, and cheesy decorations.)
I was supposed to have a presentation during my 7:OO AM Health seminar, but protesters barricaded the entrance to the university so class was canceled.
My Spanish professor decided that it would be the last day of class and between winks told us that we could come because technically there is still class, but that the students have collectively decided not to... She also canceled the final exam.
In the afternoon I had to give my final Portuguese presentation in front of all 4 classes. We sat through 4.5 hours of presentations before we were liberated to go have our Thanksgiving dinner. I made my Grandma's cornbread stuffing and it was a huge hit. Everyone complemented it so props to Mom for getting me the recipe. Tell Grandma that it was a success!
