Last day of class and Ceres, South Africa

So Thursday was the closing function. I was probably there for an hour, maybe a little less because one of my friends didn't feel well so we decided to come back. That was fine by me because I was exhausted! Friday morning we didn't have class so four of us went out to breakfast, there I had the BEST chocolate shake of my life. Afterwards, Erin, Kristin, and I went shopping where I may or may not have spent a little too much money (sorry mom). We went to this really cool butcher shop and bought some really really tasty kudu biltong! The meat here is ten times better than back home. Then we had to make our way back so we wouldn't be late for class, even though I wouldn't have minded .. Almost everyday Grant had us do some ridiculous check in activity which was mostly drawing (not my strong suit ..) or write something down; he would then hang them up on the wall. Well, we spent about an hour taking them down and gluing them into this book he made us, which he then took back but I'm assuming he's going to give them back to us but then again it's Grant and he can be weird at times. After class Dom Erin and I started the journey to her house! Once we got there we hung out with her family and all her animals!! Her house was AWESOME! I loved it. Her parents made us nice homecooked meal; it was nice to not eat out for a change! It was a very relaxing night. I went to bed probably around 10:30! I was exhausted after this week. Today, we woke up around 9:45 and just layed around and watched Despicable Me. We also walked around her town for a bit where I saw SNOW in AFRICA!! It was cool. Her dad kept talking about this cool meat so naturally I bought some. It was one of the best things I have ever eaten. I have no idea how to spell or pronounce the name of it or else I would write it. We were supposed to go horseback riding but the lady was a total flake and bailed on us. Not cool. We got back to Stellenbosch around 8:30 and our dorm is EMPTY! Everyone went to Cape Town for the night so it's really quiet .. kind of scary actually. Tomorrow morning we're going to wake up around 7 and take the train to Cape Town for the day. I'm really excited! We have our whole week planned out so it's going to be fun :) Harry Potter tickets have been bought and guess what! They were only $3.15!! Back in the States they would be like $10! I can't wait :)
