Man I could be an author, look at these witty titles.
As a continuation of the dryer story... It didn't really work. The washer works great, the drier just blows around hot air... so I had to go buy a stand for my clothes which was about 12E and some pins which were 3E. Not too shabby.
I now have fresh clothes, and a nude bra with pink stains on it, because apparently the detergent here is way stronger and likes to make purple bras run pink... Lovely.
Needless to say I don't know how to sort clothes... Thanks a lot Padre.
While I was watching my clothes dry I went through my CEA handbook and looked at the useful tips, which I found quite useful... imagine that. Once my room mates got home from their walking tour of the East Jesus Nowhere campus we started making our very own fried rice. Yepp. I made fried rice. Eggs, Veggies and All. :)
As our dinner settled K and I sat around and planned our trips for the fall semester. In addition to our included trips to Morocco and Portugal, we are planning on going to Madrid for a weekend, Barcelona for four days, during a festival, and Italy. I don't think Paris will be a possibility just because it's so expensive, and let's be real... the Pizza in Italy outweighs the Croissants in France... Sorry.
At about 1:00am we actually got to sleep, and it was really nice because I actually fell asleep. Thank ya Jesus. I awoke at 8:00am due to some obnoxious construction that's happening in our building... that was fantastic. So I made myself a strong cup of coffee, way stronger than needed, on accident, and was jonesing all day. I stayed up for class though! So that was amazing!
Once the time came to head to class, 9:30, I left and wandered around some side streets to find the building. Our classes are literally five minutes away from our apartment... it's pretty epic. My professors are super awesome. One told us about all of this funny stuff people say on accident, and sound like they're on drugs, another told me about all of the slang ways to say Vag, and boobs. It was super fun... but I'm pretty sure if my class totally understood thought, because no one laughed... and I did... and the professor looked at me knowingly like, 'yay finally someone caught on'... and everyone else just looked kind of bewildered... Yeah, I'm not sure.
After class I headed to go to the office with K and A to go to the CEA office to talk to everyone about classes and programs. After which we headed to our land lords restraunt for free tapas, sangria, and piña coladas. We ate a lot of tapas, including Paella, shrimp, some lettuce things, and bread, with endless sangria, which got kind of strong after the third pitcher. So you know, there were like twenty of us, not just three people sharing three pitchers of sangria. Cool your balls. <---college vocab right there.
Once we got a little buzz on we headed out to walk around and find our school books, and shop a little. K and A bought their books, my professors said it wasn't totally mandatory, but I might go buy one later. We went down the Arab market street and I bought a tray made for olives, because there's a little spot to put the seeds!! And I got a sheet/tapestry thing of the sun and moon. It's really cute and really different. I also got another Spanish flag, which is going to one of my best friends, and a the Andalucia flag. I'm pretty sure I spent somewhere around fifteen, twenty euros... but it was all cute stuff that I totally need....ish.
After our shopping adventure we headed home and are now waiting on R to get out of classes so that we can plan our Eurotrip. It's going to be a night of planning, and fun ness. :)
I'll keep you posted, and as always...

Hasta Luego
