Although this week was filled with exams, a presentation and a lengthy paper, I managed to have some fun amongst all the stress. Here are some quick updates.
Monday in our literature class, Anne took us to the Theater of Dionysus- the birthplace of Greek Tragedies for class. It was amazing having class right where the plays we have been reading were performed!

Monday night, I signed up for a Greek cooking class (yeah- I surprised myself with that one!). It was so much fun! We made tyropita (a cheese pie), greek salad, and a delicious meatball soup with a lemon broth. It delicious and now (if I ever feel brave enough) I can impress people with my lovely cooking

| Who trusted me to be in the kitchen? |

| Yummmmmm |

Tuesday we had our last Greek class and took our final and gave our presentation on Greek Families. It was a day consumed with writing my paper on the Iliad, but I did manage to have some fun. Kate, Michelle, and I along with our new friend Zack (who goes to CYA) went out for some Chinese food: wontons, chopsticks, idiotic fortune cookies and all. It was a delicious study break.

| Yay chopsticks! |
Tonight we had our second salsa class with Jesika (our first session had been last week). It was so much fun showing off our newly learned skills. This picture is from last week, but I didn't bring my camera this time.

We are now all packing up for our four day weekend in Nauplion and Olympia. It should be a fun trip, but I wont pretend I am not missing my Grandma's stuffing.
Special shout out to my family who I am assuming my mom is reading this out loud to. Happy Thanksgiving!
