Un díá en mi vida aqui...


Levanto muy temprano porque hay muchos niños en mi apartamento en un guardería aqui. Hace muy calor, pero no es malo.

(I wake up very early because there are many children in my apartment in daycare here. It is very hot, but it is not bad.)

Hoy Kapy y yo eramos tarde a nuestra clase despues de tomamos el metro. (¡¿Estoy una muchacha de la ciudad, no?!)

(Today Kapy and I were late to our class after we took the metro (I am a city woman, no?)

Despues del clase (nuestra profesora y estudiantes son muy simpaticas), Kapy y yo exploramos la Plaza Catalunya y comimos en un restaurante de comida rapida. ¡La Plaza Catalunya tiene muchas tiendas y personas del todo mundo! Nos encontramos un chico nueva de Universitat American en DC. Él es intelligente.

(after the class (our professor and students are nice), Kapy and I explored the Catalan Plaza (?) and we ate in a restaurant with fast food. The Catalan Plaza has many stores and people from the whole world. We met a new guy from American University in DC. He is very smart.

Now to some English:

I am enjoying the city despite being discombulated most of time. I spend so much more time quiet and looking. Trying to soak it in and internalize everything. I regret not having a homestay and pray that when the time comes to reevaluate my living situation they will let me change into a casa. Pienso que es más apropiado para mi y mis metas de mi viaje. Most of the time I find myself feeling (as usual) out of place with the American students. They're isn't a niche for me here quite yet, but I hope I find one soon. I much prefer a bottle of wine with dinner and a relaxed night to parties and packed clubs, which make me very uncomfortable.

This weekend is Valencia. Which I feel I will enjoy.

Well,

Enough rambling.

Adeu!

YES! I am so glad you are soaking everything in.

I still feel out of place here in America. Apparently, it's something you never quite out grow.

Enjoy your day.

I am glad that you are able to communicate your feelings so eloquently. I hope that you will continue your blog so that I can see how things develop. Enjoy the differences that you encounter and soak in as much culture as you can.

love,
