Escuela! Que Triste!

Sunday was a great! Sundays here are soo chill, we just get up grab lunch and the city is pretty much shut down for the rest of the day! Its great! After lunch on sunday I went to El Parque Maria Luisa to meet Grace and take some pictures. We sat and talked for a while in the park and got to know each other a little bit better, it was nice. The park is so beautiful! I can't wait to see it in full bloom during the spring and summer, although I think my allergies can wait haha but thats beside the point. So after we sat and talked for a while we decided to explore the park a little bit and then eventually we ended up in La Plaza de Espana. It was incredible, the light was beautiful and the fountain in the middle was all lit up! We took pictures of the plaza and then we went up on one of the balconies to take some more pictures. Its a rather beautiful place at night. We took pictures until the light was gone and then we walked towards el centro and then I walked her home (she lives in like the other side of the city, like a 40 minute walk lol) so i dropped her off and then set out for home. We had dinner which was pasta with meat in it and some of the meat and potato soup from lunch. Then we watched some tv and went to our room. I talked to the family on the webcam which was nice! It was good to see everyone and hear how they were doing. After that I journalled a little bit and then we hit the sack. We got up around 12 today and showered and had lunch and such. Then we set off for EUSA and our first class of the semester, class doesnt start til 530 which is amazing!! I love it haha. Class was good, I like one of our teachers, her name is Angeles and she helps with a lot of the different aspects of the program. Her half of the class was a lot of fun because she is very upbeat and interesting. The other part of the class is about the geography of spain and like how spain's geography has affected the development of the country. This teacher is really dry and boring which kinda stinks and he reminds me of the character from the tv show, Two and a Half Men, not charlie sheen but the other guy that is kinda shy and awkward, lol yea that pretty much describes this guy lol. He seems nice but he just isn't very interesting. After class we came home for dinner and chilled here for a while and then we went out to triana and hung for a while with Christine, Elisa, Kali, Laura, and Amelia. It was a lot of fun. Anyways, I'm off to bed. Hasta luego!!
