My ABC's

        One thing that I have furthered my knowledge for here is the alphabet. Yes, I've known it since I was four or five, but now I really know it. I use my Spanish/English dictionary all the time. And you know it occurred to me today, is the alphabet named "alphabet" because of "alpha, beta"? I was just curious. It makes sense to me. Anyways, I used my dictionary many times as I dove in head first to Hamlet. I look up every word I don't know because I really want to get a good grade on this test. I want to understand what is going on in class. It helps so much that I read it last year though.
        This morning I went to school after eating my bowl of Nougat Pillows. I found out today that Natalie and I no longer get to go to the library for "French." I'm pretty sure the evil cat lady librarian had something to do with it. I mean we weren't necessarily angels in there but we were not bad at all. Just rude. Anyways, we know have to go to class with the grade below us during that time. Today it was economics. When we got there we found Tabea (Tabs, the German exchange student) there. We were so excited. We love Tabs. She is so funny. She rolls her own cigarettes and wears a bowler hat. I love her.
        I finished the day with another period of economic filled fun. I took a test. It was 10 multiple choice. The teacher (it's weird calling him a teacher because he looks 16) read the correct answers and if I'm not mistaken I got the majority of them right. Score. I haven't been able to understand much of what he says. He is a mumbler. I was proud of myself! I can't wait to get my literature test back tomorrow. And start HAMLET! Gahh.
        After school I ate lunch. It was much to be desired. Some beans and cabbage. I skipped out on the cabbage and had  yogurt instead. I ate something that reminded me of a milky way for dessert. After lunch I wasted my life away on facebook and did my exercises. After that I met up with Athena, Tabs, and Nat and we did some shopping. I had my eye on a pair of shoes from Saturday night. The plan was to buy them today but they didn't have my size. Figures. Once I got home I got to talk to Katie and Abbie!!!!! It was so nice! I miss them. I had dinner afterwards: salad: tomatoes, tuna, onions, little pickles, and dressing. Also bread.  I did the dishes, showered, and watched tv with Maite.
         It is soooo time for bed. I'm exhausted. Buenas noches!
