Gracias.. or not

Something I really miss... being able to sit on my bed blast music whenever I want, I find it to be extremely therapeutic. I'm happy about being able to sit on the bus for 6 hours and blasting it through my headphones too (tomorrow). I miss my friends and I really wish we could've hung out more this summer, but we all got caught up in working, house-sitting, and Thailand. =( Our boba run's been long overdue guys.

I learned in class today when it's appropriate (or not) to say "thank you" to someone in Spain. Our prof got tired of having to say "de nada" because we would thank her every time she passed out a worksheet. So unless you're ASKING someone for a favor, don't thank them. Again, it was only the Americans that did that. Another thing Spaniards do, they say "tranquila" when they think you're overreacting, when it's really nothing.

We learned how to make Tortilla de Espana today (eggs and patatas). Much better than yesterday cause there were only 4 of us and we had to peel/cut our own potato and onion. For something so simple it takes some skill to make because you gotta flip it a certain way. We made our own sangria again.. and added way too much wine because we were all tipsy after 2 tiny cups. I didn't have lunch either so that didn't help.

Andrew is introducing us to a salsa club tonight, after we try some of this sherry that he's been raving about since day one. Can someone explain what sherry is cause I have no idea? I haven't salsa'ed since last year when I took that class at Wooden with Jeff.. but I failed miserably. He just got really mad at me =P If that doesn't work out we can always hit the clubs again. Four of us are leaving for Granada at 6am, so our plan is to stay out til 5a, go home and fetch our stuff and then sleep on the bus.

For those of you coming to Spain (Justin) WAMU really SUCKS. It wouldn't let me withdraw money from a few of their ATMs, because they have at least 10 different banks here, and it still charged my account. SOooo I'm out $440 right now. I called customer service but the call dropped as they were trying to connect me elsewhere. Hopefully my mom can help take care of it this weekend.

K time to peace out, have a great weekend, y'all.
