On August 25th, at about 5:00, we are going to the airport to pick up my new brother. Federico, from outside Buenos Aires, Argentina, is going to be staying with my family for a year. He is leaving his friends, family, house, most of his stuff, to come and go to school here. Some of my friends say, "um...why is a random guy going to be living in your house?" Some say, "well, make sure he is hot." The rest say, "OMG THAT IS SO COOL." I think its pretty cool. A chance to live in another country, usually speaking another language for a year would be so valuable. But what do you think? Would you go?
