It is back to the grind on this gloomy Monday. It is funny because my host parents and the copy lady at the local copy center commented about the crummy weather today, but I really can't complain about 50 degrees and no snow!
This weekend was pretty fun! Saturday I slept in and went shopping once again. The best part of Saturday night was going to "Metropolis" (a local bar) and watching the Packers play (Dad & Uncles--please don't give me crap). The game started at 2 a.m. in Spain so we didn't get home til 5:30 a.m. Which is fine because that is a typical time to come in on a Friday and Saturday night in Spain. Crazy, I know.
I slept in til around 12:15 on Sunday and then went to my first Catholic mass in Spain at the Church of Saint Eulalia. It was such a great experience and something I really needed! The church was mostly filled with older people. All the women had on these huge fur coats (that might be my next purchase..haha). The rest of Sunday was filled with napping, homework, trying paella (rice, saffron, and seafood dish), watching "Monster in Law" with my sister and a soccer game with my parents!
Today was a typical Monday. I had my Myths and Legends class with Juanjo, went home for lunch, and came back to school to do a little homework in the library!
Hasta luego!

ReplyDeleteIt gets dark around 6 here!! Hasta Luego is a phrase used to say goodbye--it translates to "Until next time."
