Wellllll, yesturday May 24th.2010

was the first day of classes. I placed into advanced SURPRISE! Haha not really, I wouldnt expect anything less..not to be cocky or anything but 15 years.. c'mon. Anyway My and lyssa are both taking culture & civilization, and literature from 4-8. We have Jaime for both of the classes. He is pretty cool, he sweats alot though.. kind of stinks up the class.

Yesturday the cuatro amigas ate at this cafe very close to our college. We ordered three things to share: one of my favorites tortilla de patata, croquetas de SOMETHING?, andd these shrimps wrapped in what seemed to be egg noodles or some sort of delicious crunchy and of course tinto de verano. Yesturday we had class from 1-3 nd then 6-8 but we changed it today from 4-8. Yesturday in our hugre gap between classes, lyss and I went to go attempt t buy bus passes for the 4 amigos while the other two were in class. We ended up getting EXTREMELY lost.. what a suprise.. Definetely got our work out in that day!!

Had a meeting at Hotel Ligeros? sp? Whatev/ Cique our director talked about sevilla and gave us our weeks schedule. We then had the worst tapas of our lives and decided to eat. We found a cut cafe/bar and ordered delicious nachos to share. They were cooler ranch doritos with cheese and hot sauce on top. AMAZING. A glass of tinto de verano that was NOT 6 euros, only like 1,50. hahaaa. We all ordered some sort of sanwhich or buritto. Not too bad. Lyss and I took a taxi back to Juan Pablo and passed out as soon as we hit the sheets.

This morning May 25th, 2010

I slept in till 9:30, amazing. Took a shower. Lyssa and I decided to explore the park right across from our apartment, la parque de Maria Luisa. Absolutely gorgeous. AMAZING architecture as always. It had gorgeous flower gardens, gazebo's and two museums. One of architecure, and another with costumes! We will be visiting those sometime soon! We walked around for a while, ventured up to this cute gazebo where a bunch of couples wrote their names and cute love quotes. I want to come back some day with the love of my life(you know who you are) and make our mark :]. Also they attatched locks to the bars on the gazebo with little love quotes and names engraved in those as well. The concept was beautiful and I enjoyed it very much!

We walked back home and I straightened my hair for the first time! Yay! Lyssa scared me cause she said that it might blow up... it didnt! We then treked it to class for the first time. We left at 12:20 and got there right at 1 when class was starting.. what an insanely long walk.

We had class until 8 and met court and carly down in the lobby. We went to Plaza Nueva and bought tram/bus pases for 10 times; 7,50 euros. We then hopped the tram and spoke with this adorable old woman about america and how court was the only one in search for a spicy spanish man :]. Once we got off the tram we parted ways and walked the rest of the way home. The walk wasnt so bad then!!

When we got home, Lyssa and I had some dinner. Tonight for dinner we had some of the leftover chicken that I already wrote about, and something similar to lentil soup! So delish!! I was brave enough to try a little taste(by sticking my finger in it, shh dont tell) of Gazpacho. Gazpacho is a cold soup in which is made up of tomatoes, tons of other veggies, olive oil, salt and pepper all blended in the blended. Its then chilled in the fridge all day. It wasnt THAT bad, but I could never eat it as a soup. Maybe with tortilla chips?! yumm. Anyways, thats my day! Goodnight Sevilla <3
