When in Spain, Buy Hooker Boots

Again, it's been quite some time. Do I see a pattern coming? Might just be that. Life is getting to some of the mundane parts. We're full time students. Our History class has been reinstated (cuz our professor was gone for two weeks), and I've already had 2 tests with another tomorrow. I should be studying for that, but I thought of all of you instead and decided to update you on my life. How sweet am I?

There is probably going to be no order to this, and I will write things as I remember. We had a fun weekend out. We finally found the chocolate shots! We were really proud of ourselves, and the place is pretty nice. Basically, we will be going back. And on our return, we never ran into the perro! It's so wonderful. I'm really glad that we've had a few walks back in complete safety. Although, we do plan escape routes every time we walk back.

I also started teaching on Monday. I'm helping an 8 yr old girl with her work in school. She attends a bilingual school here in Spain, so her classes in English change often. I'm also supposed to  help her with her speaking. It's pretty low-key and laid back, but I really enjoy it. The first session went well, so I'm looking forward to keep working with her. Plus, I get paid pretty damn well.

We went to see Todo Sobre Mi Madre on Tuesday... so, yesterday. It's one of our cultural excursion type things. It was good, but a little weird. There was a lot of Spanish cursewords, and therefore I enjoyed it. I'm not sure if I'd suggest it to many people because, one) it was in Spanish and two) not sure who would really be into it. Almodovar is a different kind of director, but very famous here in Spain. He also directed Volver. I guess if you really like Penelope Cruz I'd tell you to check him out, cuz she's in a lot of his films.

Let's see, what else? The World Cup trophy was in Valladolid the other day. The queen also came to visit. Our Barcelona trip is planned (and said planning involved some damn good frozen Bailey's coffee) and we depart tomorrow. That led to an inevitable trip to the bus station today to figure out how to get to the airport. Along the way we found a Domino's and a sex shop. Oh, I love this place.

I guess that's it. Like I said, it hasn't been nearly as exciting lately. Maybe it still seems exciting to you all, but it's really starting to become my home, so it's slowly becoming just as boring as Eau Claire or Geebs. Haha. Also, I do miss the snow, guys. You're all on the news for it here in Spain. Makes me wanna come back to watch the Super Bowl (which I will still watch in Barcelona this weekend). Until next time.
