Honestly, I don't really like festivities. I only know Christmas, New Year and National Holidays. And I think the one I like the most are the National Holidays, but not because of their meaning. I like them because It's family encounter where all of us can eat, drink and have a lot of funny conversations. It allows us to celebrate many things and in my family we don't necessarily celebrate for the country.
The National Holidays in Chile start on September 18th and finish on September 19th. It's usually two days of celebration, which is awesome since everything is canceled and we don't have any classes during those days.
Besides, the best thing of the National Holidays is the "terremoto" or earthquake in English. It's an alcoholic drink which is made with white wine called "pipeño", pineapple ice cream and pomegranate syrup called "granadina". I really love to drink that. It's delicious. It has a sweet taste because of the ice cream and the syrup.
The origin of this festivity is because of on the September 18th, the creation of the first national board is commemorate, where the country was finally able to emancipate itself and be independent. On the other hand, on the September 19th the Day of the Glories of the Army is celebrated. But I don't really care about anything of that. And neither does my family. We only spent those two days drinking a lot of alcohol and eating a lot of salad and meat. It's very cool for all of us.
That's all. I hope you have a nice week. Bye ♡
