Fall, falling, fallen. That's the way the season Changes its tense in the long-haired maples That dot the road; the veiny hand-shaped leaves Redden on their branches (in a fiery competition With the final remaining cardinals) and then Begin to sidle and float through the air, at last Settling into colorful layers carpeting the ground. At twilight the light, too, is layered in the trees In a season of odd, dusky congruences—a scarlet tanager And the odor of burning leaves, a golden retriever Loping down the center of a wide street and the sun Setting behind smoke-filled trees in the distance, A gap opening up in the treetops and a bruised cloud Blamelessly filling the space with purples. Everything Changes and moves in the split second between summer's Sprawling past and winter's hard revision, one moment Pulling out of the station according to schedule, Another moment arriving on the next platform. It Happens almost like clockwork: the leaves drift away From their branches and gather slowly at our feet, Sliding over our ankles, and the season begins moving Around us even as its colorful weather moves us, Even as it pulls us into its dusty, twilit pockets. And every year there is a brief, startling moment When we pause in the middle of a long walk home and Suddenly feel something invisible and weightless Touching our shoulders, sweeping down from the air: It is the autumn wind pressing against our bodies; It is the changing light of fall falling on us.

— "Fall" by Edward Hirsch, from The Living Fire: New and Selected Poems, 1975-2010

I'm baaaaack

So today I came back from my trip to the USA, AND I gotta say: I LOVED IT

My host family were the sweetest people ever (I'm not lying when I said I felt like crying and like I didn't deserve them more than once).

I've a feeling I know how to get along with Americans a lot better than with Spaniards.

My English was praised.

I learned the difference between Republicans and Democrats.

I visited Maryland, Baltimore, Washington DC, New York, Annapolis...

Everything is just HUGE in America.

Got lots of clothes and some food...

Got to try cupcakes.

And that's pretty much what I can remember right now, but yeah, it was amazing.

TIL the United States isn’t abreviated to US in spanish, or even EU (estados unidos). It is abriviated to EE. UU or EEUU.

So Estados Unidos is abreviated to EU but because it is a plural the abreviated letters are doubled to show that it is an abbreviation of a plural, making it EEUU. I believe also this is only the case with important abbreviations like countries and not for things like LOL or AFK.
