Big day! I woke up at 8 am. Then, Mari (another exchange student of Partners) and Tessa (Mari's american sister) picked me up at 9 am. Before going to Muncie, we brought Emily (Mari's american sister) to Ball State University. We visited one of the buildings quickly, and I found out how a dorm is! It is so small, smaller than you can ever imagine. Emily showed us a room in which the students have fun, and there was a wall where we could sign our names. Guess what? I did!






We went to Muncie, where we met Rafael, Túlio, Chris, Maitê, Leslie and Chris's american family. We ate at Pizza King, where we had a wonderful pizza and we were able to catch up.



Then, we went to a place where we did volunteer work. It was tiring, but rewarding. We made blankets, a task that took the whole afternoon. Next week, they will be donated to Riley Hospital for Chidren, to children which I'm sure will be smiling when they see our work. That's what makes volunteer work so good.






I came back to Indianapolis with Leslie, who took me, Rafael and Maitê to Shapiro's, a jewish deli. Bill (american dad) and Ben picked me up there, and we went to FOGO DE CHÃO!!!!! It is a Gaúcho restaurant, in which we had barbecue and rice and beans! Now I won't be homesick! That was so nice of them!




When I came back to our house, I gave my american mom the gifts that I had left in Tulio's baggage. She got very happy, which made me happy!

See ya, Folks!
