Hallowween
Hallowween where u get to dress up and just pretend to be someone completely fake. Its a pretty fun time in the year. The little kids get to run around trick or treating while some of the older kid go to some hallowween themed parties. This year i'm going to be luigi and some of my other friends are gonna be mario and the princess. its kinda weird but w.e it was an idea we just decided to do. I think this year is going to be pretty good hallowween cause it land on a friday. there no school the next day or anything. But next year its going to be even better. Its going to land on a saturday. the day before is the night of hallowween, the kids go out and stuff and liek trash the area. Hopefully they dont do anything to my house or i'll get every upset. i dont think they will though. Well thats it for today i need to go and see how i'm gonna look like luigi.

Traditions
The local customs in preparing a good Asado. Asado in English means BBQ. Its an Argentinian cultural food. This is prepared in a very simple fashion. All you need a grill and some entrada which is a type of meat. You just let it grill until its ready. The whole family comes over when we have this type of meal at our house. We usually eat outside and have the table prepared with salad and potatoes. We also have a salsa called Chimichuri. Which is a sauce that you out on the meat. This meal is a basic meal that runs in our family and is usually done every Sunday.
Someone first time eating an Asado would learn that this is meal of value. Its more value than beliefs. It means more in value to the family when we have this meal together as one family. Someone whose first time attending this event would see that we all appreciate it. They would also learn how easy it is to set a tradition if everyone is up to it. We just randomly started to do this on Sundays. Then since everyone agreed to it, it became a tradition. Every Sunday we get together and have this meal. And someones whose first time could see that.
A meal is considered a traditional when it has some value or belief behind it. Every dinner is the same dinner every night. But what makes it a traditional meal is when you get together and it has some meaning behind it. When we do the Asados it is considered a traditional meal because it has meaning to all of us, to the whole family. When its just a regular dinner it means nothing to us. That's why it so normal and ordinary it has no meaning to us. Really when it comes to what makes a meal traditional or not it all comes down to what it means to you and th e people your celebrating it with.

Oh man it was pretty crazy. I know the game was down here but whatever i had fun anyways watching up there with all my friends. On Friday i got to tally around 5:30 and right away i changed and went to go play ball at the gym. Then like around 8 we left and went to this girls house where there was a party and you know how it goes. we hung out had a good time. Saturday was pretty fun too. We eventually woke up at 1 and had a BBQ for the game. We went to this gyms house where we watched the game and hung out. when the game was over around 7 we went to go chill at this girls house again. But this time we stayed there for like 2 hours then left to a party in another house. Over all the weekend was fun. like i had a really good time hanging out with my all my old friends. Sunday we kinda hung out and like just messed around until i had to catch my plane at 3. But i really liked tallahasse and i can't wait to transfer up next semester.
