...to the internet. Our router died yesterday. Eek. I had a skype date with my family and I didn't want them to worry so I went all over town looking for any place that was open and asking if they had wi-fi. I finally settled on a cafe. It took me a little while though because all of Europe basically shuts down on Sunday....especially in the evening. But I managed to find it! I now have it in a corner of the house-in the living room which makes me very happy. The new router should be installed within the next two days. Thank goodness. I need to feel connected all the time. I had the amazing discovery yesterday of why I am so attached to my family. My mom sees my Grandma every single morning to get her coffee. Grandma calls once or twice a day and we live a mile apart. My Dad goes to my Grandparent's house more days than he doesn't. We're all just so close. It's how we are. So this is difficult for us.
I'm just going to list how my weekend went:
1. I went shopping at La Morea (the mall) with Natalie. We walked in on a dog fashion show. No joke. It made my weekend. I bought some earrings from H&M and a cheap belt from a China Shop. It works great though. Nat ate dinner with us and spent the night.
2. I slept in again! I went to 12 o'clock church. It was the biggest crowd so far. I cried a little. It was nice.
3. I ate lunch at my Grandparent's house. It was delicious again! I had to tell Grandpa who I was and where I was from and what language I spoke. Again. I really like Grandpa.
4. The internet didn't work so I found my cafe and talked to my family. I came home and wrote my essay for Ohio State and then watched lots of That 70s Show.
It turned out to be a nice weekend. I really missed blogging last night. I need it.
Today school went by really quickly. I wrote a letter, read some Harry Potter, and wrote in my journal. I came home and ate lunch with Maite. I had to escape to my room right after though because I was so emotional. It was like I didn't know what had come over me but I couldn't help it. Sometimes it's just really nice to cry and let everything out. I always feel better afterwards. I read my book of messages from home and that helped. Sometimes it's just hard, you know? What can I say? I'm become very emotional.
Natalie came over this evening and we had a great time! As we watched That 70s Show she made posters advertising English lessons to hang up at the University and I cleaned my buttons. I'm such a nerd! I just felt so great. Just sitting in a room watching TV and listening to music and just having the comfort of someone else. I missed that and today I got it back! I honestly did have a great Monday.
The length of this post is due to Brandi. She told me that they are just too long. I'm going to ignore that statement every other day except today. Enjoy the short post Bran. I love you. I have to eat dinner and check a few more things off my to-do list before going to bed. Have a great evening everyone!
