Two-Week Mark & Travel Plans

I totally forgot to mention that Tuesday was my two-week mark here in Spain! I was so wrapped up in the holiday that I completely forgot! It actually feels like I've been here for waaaay longer than two weeks and, good news, I have yet to have a low point!

In other news, Wednesday was the complete opposite of Tuesday. Where Tuesday was slow and lazy, Wednesday was fast-paced (well, fast-paced for Spain anyway) and productive! Lindsey and I woke up early to get our metro passes-- they last for the duration of the month and give you unlimited rides on the train and buses. SO GREAT. We made copies of our passport for just-in-case scenarios and got school supplies- just one file folder. We also made a stop at the ATM... ouch. Then we had class later that afternoon and did SO much homework that night. It really got me back into the swing of doing homework and going to class, which was definitely something I needed since classes only started last week and we were out and about all weekend in Valencia. Blanca also made the best dinner EVER last night. I ate like a pig, as usual. Due to this constant eating, Alex and I are seriously and for real going to start running in the park. Monday morning. See you there.

Today I had my two favorite classes: art history and Spanish literature. CEA bought lunch for us in-between. It was a pizza lunch for everyone else but I got chicken instead, which turned out to be a good thing because the pizza had a bunch of strange toppings... tuna, gorganzola cheese... hmm.

When we got home from class, I packed for the overnight trip in Cuenca, which we leave for tomorrow. Cuenca is a small town an hour and half or so from Madrid and also the town where I will be CLIFF JUMPING on Saturday morning. SO EXCITING! Wish me luck!

Lindsey, Alex and I also booked our flights to ROME just an hour or so ago-- we'll be there Friday, November 5th till Monday the 8th. I can't wait! It will be my first trip outside of Spain!

Other than that, not much is new!

BESOS!
