I'm dyslexic so I read "imoron." Also, I suck at siesta

Hola again mis amigos! Today has been a not so exciting day, but I will impart my happenings anyway. Katie and I got up on time. This is a first and huge accomplishment. We probably deserve a cash prize for it, so if you're interested, let me know. Oddly enough, we were late to the bus stop and had to wait for the next one. Really, Espana? Anyway, the second bus is different from the one we're normally on (aka, there are no accordion sides). We got there in time, so there wasn't a problem really, plus we beat the walkers (Andrea, Steve, and Kelsey) who left earlier today and still were un poco late.

So then it was that whole class thing. Only 3 today, still 4 hours. Literature included answering questions about the middle ages of Spain. I knew most of the answers from high school, but whatever. We have some homework for it, but it went by quickly. Then we had art. I'm really excited for this class. Ivan is really cool. He reminds me of Pace. Quick information break: According to Ivan, we're in the city with the second most amount of bars! He also had us listen to interesting songs. If you want to check them out (and are not offended by bad language) go to these links. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2spZ-NDfS4 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PsnxDQvQpw&feature=channel. Then we had two hours of grammar. Really not as bad as it sounds besides it being the subjunctive. Except for writing a full page in Spanish about our first day here in 20 min. That was horrible (you could read that bilingually if you really want to). Then we were done!!!

We walked home again, except this time, we knew what we were doing. Yeah, we're pros. We didn't use a map. Turns out we walked the wrong way on Paseo Belen which totally messed us up the other day. We got this down though, so we feel a little better. Also, what is also wonderful is that we walk past "Tu Secreto" a little dirty lingerie store. We have a laugh each time we walk past it. I'm sure one day we will have to stumble into it. It'll be some good stuff. I'll keep you posted on that one.

Then we were home. We siestad for too long... again. We're still tired. We also really haven't done anything besides eat dinner and do homework. So begins the life of a student. I still blame the siesta...
