so i made it home safe from norway and have successfully made it to the month of march - the start of spring, or what you could really just consider summer here in sevilla. although the trip to norway so solely on a whim, with no intentions of it being completely amazing, i have since decided that i must go back because it was just that wonderful. so now on to a rapid fire recap of my long weekend in madrid and oslo. last thursday was the Día de Andalucía which means no school and no work for the day (and [View Full Entry]

one more week down and only two more until the halfway point of the trip. pretty remarkable.. weekly highlights: - on tuesday morning my boss informed me that he had to go to court that morning becuase he was being sued for more money from past employees, something that is fairly normal for employees to do because of employment laws here. when he returned a few hours later he was ecstatic because he ended up having to pay about 4000 euros less than expected. so he told me to stop working for the day so we could go get a beer.

so it may appear that i am improving the consistency of my blogging, but the truth of the matter is that i'm at my internship, on a computer, with nothing to do, so i figured i might as well get a little blogging done. although it seems pretty odd to me to sit at work with nothing to do, i have used the opportunity to keep more up to date on current events than i ever have in my life, blog, write emails, search for flights, etc. i had a very nice weekend around sevilla. on friday i was a little [View Full Entry]

I have now passed the one month mark of my time in sevilla, making the trip 25% over which is pretty unbelievable. I now feel fairly confident about walking through the city and not getting lost, I am feeling increasingly more comfortable conversing with my host family, I'm getting to know my group of friends much better, and I'm adding more amazing experiences to my list of adventures. I have now finished the intensive spanish class, which puts me three credits closer to graduation. It is also the second to last class I need to finish my Spanish minor. The last [View Full Entry]

hola a todos so almost two weeks have passed, which will clearly amount to too many happenings to remember them all. i will sift through the memories though and try to pull out the ones that will be most interesting to read about. last time i was just finishing the first week of class and now i am one day until the end of it and counting each minute. thats not to say i haven't enjoyed the hilarity who is my professor antonio, but a three credit class in three weeks has definitely amounted to fair amount of work, which i [View Full Entry]

the first week of class has just finished and along with it came more adventures to add to the list. i spent wednesday afternoon preparing for the spanish career fair, looking through the different companies' information, figuring out how to say some classic interview descriptions of myself in spanish, getting into appropriate career fair attire, etc. the hotel it was being held at is only about 10 minutes from the apartment so i left around 7:30 since it was stressed to be muy puntual. when i got to the large room interviews were in full swing, which seemed odd considering that [View Full Entry]
