New Girl at School

The first couple days at school I was bombarded with questions about what my name was, who my BFF's were, where did I come from, how old was I, and who was I sitting with at lunch.  One person told me I was popular.  My mother and I think it is because I look different, my hair is naturally blonde, and I speak a different language. 
I told them all the girls are my friends, my name is Exie, I do not have a boyfriend ( I was already told all the boys like me), I come from the USA, and I was sitting with all the girls. 
On the second day, everyone knew me and all the older girls wanted me to sit with them.  Things continued like that for awhile. 
Right now we are in Merida.  We went to Parque de las Americas and got marquesitas, which are made out of pancake or waffle batter and are rolled up and have cheese in them and you can put different toppings on them.  To sum it up, it has been an awesome week. :)

    Hi, Exie - My name is Whitney, and your mom and I went to college together at Vanderbilt. I have a son - Will - who is in fourth grade in a school in Nashville, Tennessee. He is learning Spanish at school. He and I are reading your blog together - and we've shared it with his teacher so she can tell the other kids in his class about your blog, too. Thank you for writing! Will and I are really enjoying readying about your experience.

    Whitney from Nashville
