A Legjobb Csütörtök

I had the best Thursday ever (the title means "The Best Thursday") on October 10th.

When I was leaving for school in the morning my apa said he would drive me to the bus stop because he was going to work at the same time, but when we got to the bus stop the bus was not yet there; he said "no bus" and kept driving. He did this at every bus stop until the bridge where he decided to drop me off because I could catch any tram bus or trolley from there and it would take me into town. I know that was a very normal dad thing to do but it meant a lot to me and it was really amazing to have some time with him. Great start to my day :) I really like him; he is a lot like my dad in his dad-dom, not necessarily in the rest of his life but definitely as a dad.

Then after a pretty chill school day I was walking to the bus stop when I remembered that I was supposed to have coffee with my wonderful mentor. I remembered just in time to meet with her on time. We had some tasty cappuccinos and a fantastic conversation that lasted for almost two hours :)

I walked to a bus stop a little further away than the one I usually wait at because I had time and the weather was decent. The fog over the water was really cool. I had never seen it like that before and it was almost reminiscent of home.

Once I got on the bus (headphones in as usual) I did not notice when Octavio came and sat across from me. Once I figured it out we had a really nice conversation all the way home.

When I got home I found that my boots I had ordered for winter had arrived :) They are perfect!

That evening I had my first jazz band rehearsal. I didn't play because I don't have a saxophone yet but it was so nice to hear it and know I would be playing my favorite music, and instrument, again soon. Also I met some new people. My host mom always says that you get along best with people you have common interests with. I realize how true that is every time I go to a rehearsal. That are all so nice :)

That night during insomnia hour(s) I watched some wonderful political news because ... being 6700 miles away and out of touch ... I had just found out about our wonderful government shutdown. 

So I had a wonderful Thursday :) I hope you did too, even though it is a little late for that :)
