The past week has been absolutely amazing and very rare for February in Pamplona. I've been meeting friends everyday and basking in the sun while chatting in parks and sitting outside of cafes. That is what I have done all week and it's been fabulous. My week went so fast! On Friday I didn't have to go to school because they were taking exams that I didn't have to take. It was wonderful! I went to a park with my friends and then went home for lunch. All of us exchangers met for dinner around 9 that night. Our intentions were to eat sushi, so we go to the restaurant and decide what we want to order only to find out moments later that they won't have sushi until the next night. So we left. Haha. We found a cute little sandwich shop that Elle had been to once and ate there. It was great! It was reasonably priced and super cute! The food was fabulous. We all went home then later that night.
On Saturday we all met at Becca's house to make Mexican food for lunch. It was amazing! We get better at cooking...and more efficient....as time goes on. We made burritos, rice, beans, and guacamole. The guacamole was incredible...props to me and Mitch...hahah. But seriously. I stayed at Becca's until 8. Natalie and I left for Pamplona then. Natalie came back to my house for a bit to see her old host family and visit. Then my host parents asked if we wanted to see a movie with them. The King's Speech. We went to the late movie. I understood the majority of it. It was hard though because I didn't know anything about it before hand. It was about King George the VI overcoming his stutter. It was so beautiful. An amazing friendship was formed. I almost cried. After the movie, we drove Nat home and then came back to Pamplona and went to bed.
I slept in this morning and showered and then found Friends on the TV in English. I was so surprised...but I watched about 2 hours of my favorite show! It was so nice. I just sat there, laughed, and made ankle bracelets for my friends for the Southern Spain/Portugal trip (which is in 16 days!). I then ate lunch with my family and headed over to Athena's house (where I am now). I skyped with my family and sent some emails since I don't get wifi on the weekends. I'll head home for dinner and start studying for philosophy. Blehhh. The Philosophy and Literature exams are tomorrow. I'm not looking forward to them at all! Oh well. I have to a lot to get done tonight! Besos!!
