Remember That Time?!

      Remember that time when we were all little and played "school" and one person was always the teacher and the others were the students? Remember how the "teacher" would put on fake glasses and wear them right on the tip of their nose...the point right before they were about to fall off? To the point where it hurt your eyes to look through but you did it anyway...just because it gave you some power? Something that the "students" didn't have? Well, meet my Literature teacher. I don't know how she does it. Right now we are reading The Decameron...whatever that's about and then we are moving on to HAMLET! Something I know! I know Hamlet inside out. Thank you Mr. Sholtis. I'm so excited to actually know what is going on. I can't wait.
      I have two embarrassing stories that I really don't want to share with you but will regardless because let's be honest...I don't really care. But don't judge me. Last night after dinner I went to put my plate in the dishwasher and I accidentally broke it. I felt really bad. Merche and Maite told me it was nothing..but still. I felt so bad. Moving on...I stayed up until 1 AM last night. My reasoning was that since I slept in so late that morning that my sleep would all catch up or something. I was wrong. I ignored my alarm. Maite came into my room at 8:21 and asked if I was okay. I jumped out of bed, threw on some clothes, grabbed my backpack and sandwich, and then I was out of the door...SPRINTING. I ran all the way to school and you will never believe this but I was on time. Hermes was on my side this morning. Let's be real...I'm a terrible runner. But something kicked in and I made it. It was crazy. I think I was out of breath all first period. I also think my shoe fell off at one point...I'm so happy that I was awake enough to go back for it. Oh good Lord. Speaking of the Big Guy...I need to find church times and start going on my own. I really do miss going and it will help me with my Spanish and I don't mind going alone at all. Not anymore.
          Today I went to school and then came home and had some lunch. I don't know what I was eating but I liked it. After lunch I watched Glee. It's so great. Rachel and Finn sang "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" by Elton and Kiki Dee. AMAZING! Oh how I love Glee and Elton John. Mix them together and you have perfection in entertainment. After Glee, I met up with Mitchell and Athena. Mitchell got his hair cut and I convinced him to get a mohawk. It's a short one and it looks fabulous, let me tell you! It's so great. I'll out a picture up :) I came home around 7:30 and talked with Lizzie and Tess. It was so nice. I love them both so much. When was finished skyping I helped Merche make the salad and I set the table. We had dinner. Salad: Iceberg lettuce, mini pickles, olives, carrots, tomatoes, onions, dressing, and salt. And of course we had water to drink and some fresh bread. Yummy. I showered...I used the 2 in 1 that I bought for the first time in my life. 2 in1? Gahh. But I think it actually worked pretty well. My hair feels better...haha. My shower was somewhat enjoyable tonight. It's usually pretty cold but tonight it was luke warm/warm warm. Nice :)

           I can't describe how much better I am feeling now. Lately I've started missing home so much less and I'm starting to really get busy and find my life. Thank goodness. It didn't take too long, do you think? Tomorrow I have school and then Athena is coming over to watch RENT: The final broadway performance live. Gahh I am so excited. I had to bring it with me. Then I have theatre at 7:30. That should be fun as well! A week has gone by so fast. But I have not cried the past two days at all and Monday it was only because I was writing an email to my mom telling her how much I love her. So I'm doing great! I feel amazing! Now it's time for me to brush my teeth and watch an episode of That 70s Show. Enjoy your evening everyone! Os quiero.
