I just introduced my friend to The Holy Cross, the bar that gives free tshirt for 4 pints of beer! It's the most awesome place ever because they're open till 3 am, they have free wi-fi, and they have bumpin music! Free internet is a big deal around here because it's so hard to come by, and the times places are open till are very limited, especially on a Sunday night. We were planning on studying here, and i guess we'll start when our laptops die. Just got back from Portugal a few hours ago, not as great as expected. First night in Aveiro, did some shopping for the first time since I've been here and glad i waited because it's definitely a bit cheaper... except for English books. I paid 11.50 euro, almost 18 dollars for a regular book i could've paid 7.99 for, but i was desperate for something to read. Cool thing was the mall was open till 12am. Wanted to go to a concert afterward that we saw the band setting up for but I lost Carroll and ended going back to finish my book.
Spent almost 8 hours at the beach on Saturday and even though I reapplied every hour I forgot to apply at the bikini line. It hurts to sit. =( Got dressed up for dinner at this pretty awesome place where we got the "tourist menu" The night sucked cause we couldn't find the club where our waiter had suggested. spent an hour or so walking around with EVERYONE staring at us and guys following us. It finally got too scary and we went back to the hotel.
I haven't planned out the last two weeks of my trip yet and I don't know if I want to travel anymore! It's gonna cost us 96 euro to go to barcelona via train this weekend, almost $200. think about how much i would have to spend just to get from paris to rome to amsterdam to ireland, to london... yea it's financially not possible for me. i'm gonna try to either change my flight to come home early or pick 2 places to stay for one week at a time. still gonna cost me a bundle to pay for hostel/ meals. any suggestions??
half way through my pint and kinda buzzed already. better get to the studying before i don't remember what i read. my madre said my spanish got worse since i left for the weekend. not my fault that they speak portugese/ english in portugal!

Hmm...you could try looking up where it would be cheapest to fly out of and go hang out in that city, or you could travel with a friend to cut down on housing and possibly transportation costs, at the very least you could always try asking su padres americano para dinero. :D
