There isn´t much to do on Sundays. I went to the pool with Lisa Marie ( I really need to ask whether she goes by Lisa or Marie) and her friend. They don´t really talk that much though. I went home to take a shower and go to the internet café again. For dinner I didn´t have anything but bread and cheese so I asked Filo if I could heat it up in the microwave to make grilled cheese. or really heated cheese. She grumbled while she did put the sandwhich into the microwave about how I was wasting energy. I think she just likes tp complain. After I ate, she told me I could keep a little bit of food in the fridge as long as it was just me...at least I think that ... read more

Breakfast: Lemon Cake Muffin. Booking read. Halted conversation with my roommate. She doesn´t talk all that much. Conversation in English with the Americans (mala, yo sé), getting yelled at by Filo for yaka yaka yuka yuka- ing. Lunch at 2:30. Gaspacho. I seem to only reporting the bad meals, but I have to say, for the most part they are delicious (but in very large quantities). All of us, even the Cecile and Lisa Marie, were trying really hard to gag it down. But this time, Filo noticed. She gave us meatballs instead. the gaspacho was just tomatoes soup (cold), nothing else. no Actualy, whole vegetables. It had a very wierd texture, and the coldness added to that made it extremely hard to eat. It also didn´t sit well in one´s stomache. Next. ¡Clase! I ... read more

Day 19....Class...Discoteca....Leonardo´s! Leonardo´s is where everybody goes at night because it´s basically the only place open late at night. A lot of the nights are similar, discoteca. But I THINK that night the friend I was with was dancing with a guy, and the rest of the group disappeared somewhere. I was like okay, third wheel, so I went outside and saw this girl I sort of knew. Mary, she´s from Norway. I spent the rest of the night with her and her friends, a bundle of French, German-French-American, English-French, and Norweign. That´s when I first went to Leornardo´s. Sorry my entries are short. The days are pretty similar. Especially when they are in the past. When I catch up with myself, I´ll blog in more detail.... read more

Wow, I haven´t updated this in a while. Sorry, I can´t really do it in the Colegio because we can only use the computers for about 15 minutes at a time between classes. Finally I found an internet café and I´ll be coming here from now on. It´s only 1€ an hour. I don´t if I can even remember exactly what happened so long ago... I woke up at 7:45 because I had to be at school at 8:30 for my placement test. Breakfast was these little lemon cake muffins, that are SO good, and hot chocolate! It´s my kind of breakfast. Then Filo, our host mom, walked me and the other new girl (Cecile, from France) to the college. It was almost completely straight the whole way there. We got there, got a binder and ... read more
