While I work to recover the weekend in Paris from my memory, I'm just going to sum up the past three days in this one because they were a little boring. Monday we got back from Paris just in time for me to haul my backpack to my film viewing at the IES center. It was a rather interesting film - Spain has very different taste from the U.S. - but at least it kept my attention. I finally made my way home after some confusion trying to get a new metro pass and nearly collapsed from exhaustion.
Tuesday I don't even remember too clearly, even though it was yesterday. I went to Spanish, which sucked just as much as it always does. I pushed the gym back a few hours in my schedule to go get some lunch at my favorite tapas place, Txapela, where I got 3 dinner tapas and 2 desert with tea and a bottle of water for just 10 Euro. (I know that doesn't sound cheap, but it is for Plaza Catalunya.) Then I went to one more class, decided against the one after that and went to the gym. I picked up some random stuff at Corte Ingles, which cost way too much for some lotion and toothpaste, did my grocery shopping, and came home. At night I discussed my post-finals travels with Jen, her brother, and her boyfriend on a conference call on Skype. I think we might be headed to Greece. Yay!
Today, Wednesday, was just like always. I went to Spanish (guess what - it sucked), the gym, art history, salsa class, and came home. Salsa was a lot of fun. We had a "substitute" salsa teacher who was a very attractive Dominican man who all the girls were infatuated with. Every time he asked "does anyone need help?" suddenly nobody seemed to remember the steps. It was a really good time. Lots of laughing.
So that sums it up, mostly just a week of catching up with life. Though I can't seem to ever catch up, but I suppose that's the excitement of being here. I'll keep updating Paris. I send my love to the States!
