Thank You For Everything I Know

      I did not want to wake up this morning. At all. I went to bed really late last night because I was up blogging so tonight and I am writing before dinner. Way before dinner- it's only 8:04! It's going to be so strange to go back and eat around 6. It's just so crazy, but I got used to it quickly enough here so going back home shouldn't be much of a problem. Today I had so much time to think. I mean I always do, but today I thought even more than usual. While in Latin, my mind went back to my last night at home. I watched Boy Meets World with Brandi on the couch, sitting in the same spot as usual. We watched until we were exhausted. I remember going to bed and calling for Chance. He came and slept with me and I prayed and fell asleep, no problem. I remember sleeping like a baby that night. This made me miss Brandi, Chancie, and my bed so much. I wanted to cry in class....but I didn't. Thankfully. I really miss my bed: I have trouble falling asleep here...it just takes me awhile. I sleep great though.
       So in between classes some of the students open the windows and go and stand by them. So I walk over and get my coat and wonder if they are really from Russia. I swear, they're from Alaska or something at least. Yes, Ohio is cold, but we don't inflict coldness on ourselves let alone embrace it. We're all for heaters. At least my room at home is really warm. It's small and the door is usually shut so the heat stays in. Yay!
         This blog title is directed towards all of the people in my life who taught me helped me grow into the person I am today. This includes my family, my friends, and my teachers. The teachers here are very different. They speak at you. You write down notes. I realize that this is how a lot of college classes are, so at least I'm getting used to it now, but I am so happy that I went to Marlingon High School. My teachers at home are so personable and willing to help. They care about their students entirely, not just educationally. I had so much fun in high school and I feel like I learned a lot. I absolutely loved my high school experience. Life's all what you make of it and I try to have fun and work hard. My teachers helped me so much, in so many ways that I can't even explain here. I think I owe all of them a heartfelt email at the least. It's on my "to-do" list. It keeps growing. I am never bored here. There's a quote, "Boredom is an insult to oneself." I love this.
           I almost forgot...TODAY IS SIX WEEKS IN SPAIN! It's gone so fast! Especially these last few weeks. I look forward to just the weekend now...not June. Haha. I make plans every weekend and have a blast with my exchangers. They're all so great. But anyways, I am really proud of myself. I don't mean to come across as cocky. I just cannot believe that I am doing this. I used to cry like a baby every time my parents went on vacation for a week without Bran and I or sometimes even just staying the night at a friend's house. I still cry, but I am no baby. I actually just  really cried for the first time today in over a week. That's great for me. I'm just emotional now. But I don't mind it. I feel better after I cry. No need to hold everything in.
           I got my Literature test back today. I got four out the seven that I answered correct. SCORE. I was actually pretty pleased with that. I honestly could not tell you what that book is about. I know it had ten short stories so that make it all the more confusing. Oh well. Better than 50%!!!! I'm good with that. For now at least.
           Today I had two extra hours of school so Natalie came to the apartment with me during our lunch break and ate. We ate something that tasted like pie crust with ham and cheese and possible egg....could it be some kind of quiesh? (I have no idea how to spell that one) We both enjoyed it. We had clementines and candy bars for dessert. The extra two hours at school were nothing special. I walked home after school and unloaded the dishwasher as I listened to Simon & Garfunkel. My jam :) Glee is playing on my iTunes right now. I always have music playing. And speaking of Glee: It's not on this week but next week is The Rocky Horror Picture Show Episode!!!! So I'll be watching The Rocky Horror Picture Show tomorrow to prepare myself. I just listened to all of the music today and it is going to be so amazing. Glee has really picked up it's game this year. Is it so much better, or is it just me? I've always loved it but the plot needed some work and I think it's fantastic now. I'm a Gleek! :D

       This is what I do with some of my time at school. Hahaha, no, I've been working on it for a long time now. Enjoy if you can actually read it. I'm going to paint my nails and watch Aquellos Maravillosas 70s and work on my listening. Can you believe that I have to force myself to watch TV? That people tell me I need to watch TV? Crazy! Happy Tuesday everyone. Enjoy your evening. Besos. Os quiero.
