hi!

well lemme see..
Monday: nothing that interesting. went to the bank and deposited some travelers checks. went to class and then went to this shop and we made dinner.

Tuesday: LONG DAY OF CLASS! booo and we were so tired that night that we just fell asleep almost immediately of coming home :(

Wednesday: the maids woke us up VERY early so we had to clean, shower, do our hair in a matter of 20 minutes... then it was class time. then we came home and i got a bit to eat and then went to soccer practice. i met one of the girls who is on the team named Mariona at a metro stop and she picked me up and we went to practice on Montjuic... and if you dont know what that is. its where the Olympic Games in '92 were held!!!! and oh my word. we were on top of a huge mountain right next to the Olympic stadium and it was so so awesome. you could see forever! we did a ton of running and scrimmaged and i was happy that i actually played pretty well that night. then i came home and it was like 1130 and didnt really feel like going out.

Thursday: again my LONG DAY! 2 hours of Art then 4 hours of SPANISH! yikes! here a detailed account of yesterday (it's fresh on my mind!!)
so i woke up and then i rode the metro and was real tired and then i go to school and my art class... wasnt super interesting today. the thing is we are talking alot about architecture and like mini statues... i want to look at some dang PAINTINGS or drawings or something like that! so did that. was pretty bored most of the time :/ but everyone has to do a presentation this semester and me and my partners is next tues so we gotta figure out all that stuff... im just happy to be getting it over with!
then it was lunch and i had a delicious sandwhich apple my banana was nastay and a mandarine! so then i went to 4 hrs of spanish. it was good today, my teacher has been making it fun so thats always nice. there are jut a couple of kids in there that just dont pay attention and thats annoying... im becoming really good friends with das germans... they funny and nice and not so 'american' lol so thennnn we wwent on the metro and i was going to go shopping for this jacket real quick. so kris went home and i found it and it was 20 euros and its so awesome an di LOVE it!! then omg i dont know if you ever saw the pictures of the soccer field like right next to our house, (ive posed infront of the field a couple of times) but today they were filming a movie there and there were all these christmas lights and stuff and it was so crazy! i ran to the market real quick and grabbed some bread, water, and mandarines.
come back. chill for a moment... and then take a shower and get ready! lets see oh and i looked super cute ps. i wore black leggings, my cute new boots, and my yellow barca jersey with the barca scarf and the new jacket! it was perfectly cute :) we get to the game and you can feel the excitment! its so awesome. If you didn't know, FC Barcelona was playing the OTHER team in Barcelona, Espanyol... so it was awesome and it's called a City Derby (prounounced dArby though hahah and obviously both these teams are huge rivals!!) we get there and its kris lali and the gma... the stadium is hugely filled! like last night there were 47000 and this time it was like 80000 and it was such a fun game! we got these barca and catalonia plastic flags! and the game was so intense!
THEN the game was awesome. barely won 3-2. then afterwards. we plan on going to Las Ramblas to go to a bar or something. we have to let 3 metros pass us before we can get on one bc they are so packed... then we go there and its not too bad. we go to a place called My Bar and then my german friend calls me and theyre all on Las Ramblas so i tell them to come hang with us. we only stay there for a little while and then go to this other bar called La Ovella Negra or black sheep... and its huge and international and its pretty cool i guess no music but we stayed there till 2. kris made friends with some spainards who seemed pretty nice! and then the bar is baout to close so we leave and go to this other club where we can get in free.. me and this kid Konstantin become like BFF and his favorite band is Kings of Leon also and so that was really crazy!! and we go to this club for free but the guys have to pay 12 euros but they get 2 free drinks so im not really sure how it worked haha and its a very european club with house techno music and stuff it was alot of fun!! we stayed there for a while and then we're pretty tired and then came home around 430!!!

WHEWWW!!!
