Back to School, Back to School


Today was the first day of classes! My school, Instituto de Empresas (IE), is SO COOL! It's a modern school with all sorts of history. Yesterday we got a tour from one of my profs (His name is Juanjo).

I am lucky and start class everyday at 11 a.m., so I started the day of with Linguistics class with my professor, Carolina.  After that I had Brian's (the program director's) study abroad seminar class.  Then I went home for lunch and watched a little basketball and a telenovela (soap opera) on t.v. with my brother.
Then I studied for a little and went back for an art and culture class at 4:30 with Pilar!

Class ended at 6 and Amy, Noah, Colin and I found a perfect study spot in our school's basement. We even got to hook up our computers to a stereo they had down there to listen to the European Top 40! I just got home and met one of my host mom's sisters and her daughter!

It was rainy again today, but it's not like it matters because we walk everywhere, regardless. I think I might have legs of steel when I get back to Minnesota!  Anyways, it's dinner time..then a little more homework and tapas (appetizer/snacky things) tonite with the gang!
