Back in Valladolid! It was fun being able to talk to everyone about their weekend trips! Most people went to San Sebastian or Barcelona... I think only 3 people in our program stayed in Valladolid, and went grape picking at a vineyard on saturday.
Argh being back in class isn't so much fun though. I feel somewhat lost on my Spanish classes. I understand what we are learning, but it is still challenging when I don't always understand what my professors are actually saying. I don't know what I would do if they didn't write everything on the board. I am definitely more of a visual learner than an audio learner. Our grammar professor is also getting more and more impatient with us. We don't think we've seen her smile in over a week... and we heard she is dating our culture teacher? No idea if that is true, but he is soo nice and patient, and she is, well, the opposite.
I did have a conversation with my mama though! Usually Emily is there, so I don't feel the pressure to respond as much, but it was just me and her since Emily was in the shower. We talked about my future weekend traveling plans, and she told me that she went to University in Granada. We also talked about how excited she is for me to be planing to travel to a lot of places in Spain, and I showed her some of my Nerja pictures.
Oh and I booked my tickets to Ireland today! We are going in December during our 4-day weekend... it's going to be freezing! And now I'm working in my tickets for Sevilla and Granada for the next 3-day weekend. Ah! So excited!
