its been forever and there is way too much to catch up on. in the past few weeks ive been to london and sevilla two times! im currently taking a study break... recently ive been quite the procrastinator and i have papers that neeeeed to be done, this is my last week of classes and next week ive got exams. so, briefly
london= fantastico, we got to stay at our friends place, and we all had a glorious time speaking english and drinking tea. i recently saw a harry potter trailer for the new movie and it had a clip with the millenium bridge in it and i was very excited to have walked that same bridge! i was also secretly hoping to run into robert pattinson, the protagonist of the book-now-movie twilight- my perhaps unhealthy addiction. (i bought the book in spanish to practice reading hehe)Unfortunately hes in Canada filming part two.
sevilla part one was right after that- we went for the famous "semana santa" aka holy week during easter. it was amazing--- tons of procession type things featuring people in tall pointy hats that have a resemblance to the KKK - ill have to explain this to you in person if your interested- no fear, theyre holy people. i got food poisning in the middle of the trip- well, i self diagnosed, it was a 12 hour stint and i was vomiting all day long, a horrific situation especially when your in a 8 bed room in a smelly hostel. i survived.
sevilla part 2 was a trip covered by our AYA program and we all (14 or so of us) went with our director, who actually studied there when she was a student. absolutely a gorgeous place, im trying to make laura consider studying there. uhh - may- zing. and the food is good too of course. on the way back in the metro on sunday at 10 PM someone stole my wallet. i was being careful!!! they were professionals, and got me flustered as i was trying to leave the metro... i was walking out and realized as the doors were closing that they got me. i was really upset at first but i calmed down and now im just a super psycho everytime i travel/ am in a crowd.
oh! and i went to see a soccer game too. that was sooo fun and it was a Real Madrid game (the name of the madrid team, obviously) against Getafe (where my school is, funny) and Madrid won.
its 11 , ive got class in an hour and i MUST get this done! xoxoxoxo, im done on the 16th, and that day im also catching an overnight bust to barcelona, 18th to Milan, around the wonderful country of italy till the end of the month, then a week in greece and the grecian island santorini. 20 days living out of a backpack!!!! you all can be jealous of my tan :)
