(:

Another week has passed... I am getting a lot more comfortable at school. I talk to more people, make friends, play cards, ask more questions in class. I love it here (:
I've been running a lot lately; I still love the fact that I run by a castle! I'm going to join a gym and take some dance classes, and last night i went to padel again. If I don't do some exercise I will definitely get fat... haha. Everyday when we eat our sandwhiches at school, Anais gives me what she doesn't want of hers, and if we are at home eating a snack, like a nutella sandwhich, I always end up finishing hers. haha

Last weekend we went to watch a band concert at the town theatre... I was really tired and kept falling asleep, but I would always wake up at the end of each song to appluad. At one point I got into a really good sleep and then suddenly woke up at starting clapping. They hadn't stopped playing. haha my friends are still making fun of me. After we went to a bar called sunami to hang out.

Saturday we went to the coronation of "la damas" to find out if Anais would be la reina... it is involved with the fiestas of the town. There are different groups and each one has a dama that represents the group, well two: a young one and an older one. Then one is selected as the queen. It is full of culture, and tradition... the whole thing is very cool.
Last friday it rained like crazy. Afterward I got to put on my rainboots and jump in some puddles (:

I was walking through the park the other day and this adorable little girl started yelling hello to me. So I stopped and said hi. Then she said "ball" as she had a ball. So I said "for me?" and she said "noo" and then "the ground" haha I laughed and talked to her some more, and when I tried to leave she follwed me. I told her I was going home and she couldn't come. haha her dad was laughing and she just kept yelling at me. Then last night I went to a dance show put on my the gym I want to join and I was talking to this lady next to me. I feel like like I live here more. haha (:
I have been exchanging jokes with Miki and his friends at school. But just lke in the States, I'm the only one who laughs at my jokes. haha

  1. Love hearing about all this life experience
    And keep splashing in those puddles! Show Spain who you are - "it's not about the storms in life, it's all about learning to dance in the rain"
