Welcome back, all! So discoteca was not discoteca but a good time anyway. There was mucho confusion about getting to the place. Lisa (who talks to everyone!) started asking some random guys about discotecas and bars, so they brought us to the bar region of the city. It seemed a little sketch for a while, but we had a ginormous group, busy streets, and we left them as soon as they brought us to the area of the city. Anyway, we eventually ended up at this bar...... STOP! We had pre-discoteca across the street! It took us about a million days to decide on what to get, so we all just got a shot of honey rum and some woman there took our picture and offered us free shots. Well, no one but Esteban y yo were willing to, so we didn't. Back to this one bar. We thought it was discoteca, turns out no, but we had a grand time. It was quite loud, which was undesirable and ended up meandering back to some other bar with muchos less people and a bit too much American music. It was alright, and we ended up leaving at about... 2:45. We got home with no problems, but I didn't get to bed until much later because I was talking to people.
Cue this morning... that came and went before we got up at an early hour of 2:30 pm. Buenisimo! Yeah, it was very late because the alarm clocks in our moviles (cell phones) are way too quiet. Because of this, we did almost nothing. We missed churros con chocolate with Andrea, Esteban, and Kelsey, too... We did have some rice with mushrooms (gross) and shrimp though. Our host madre really likes to make us eat a lot of food though, so we did not finish. We also did not siesta after due to our massively late start to the day. I did get most of my homework done. Maybe Katie and I can go on an adventure in Campo Grande tomorrow instead of doing that. I also talked with the parentals. Then before you know it, it's time for cena (dinner). It was also un gran tiempo (great time). We had huevos fritos (or fried eggs), and Katie doesn't like eggs. She tried really hard to eat it, but she just couldn't do it. She felt really bad and made THE silliest faces trying to choke down one more bite. My entertainment in Espana.
After dinner, we had a little time to get ready (by the way, I still can't bring myself to wear leggings by themselves). We were off once again. We wanted tapas (appetizers) and started fumbling around the city for a good place even though Esteban's host madre gave him a list. The first place had too much seafood and was really busy, so we returned to the Plaza Mayor where Lisa proceeded to ask these guys about tapas. They looked really confused before asking us if we spoke English. Turns out they were Swedish and in high school studying abroad! Que comico! They were of little help, but it's okay cuz we found a place. I wasn't hungry so tapas will be for another night.
After that we returned to the same bar as last night (the second one with no people). I add that only because tonight it was completely packed. Craziness! It was a lot more fun... and also way less fun in some ways. There was a huge asshole there that Andrea and Lisa met. These posts will probably include a lot of Andrea and Lisa meeting boys. Anyway, he took my beer, shook it up, and sprayed it all over the floor. Rude. We stayed away from him after that. But it was good. We chilled there, danced, and enjoyed ourselves before leaving at 2.
The only notable thing about the walk home was that we saw the grim. No fricken lie. I was going to have Esteban take a picture of it for me to put in the foto book I'm making Eric when it came running at us and growling! I was frightened like none other. Terrifying for realsies. So if this thing doesn't get updated in a while, you can figure that the grim caught up to me. And on that note, buenas noches
