Well i realized today that I start every blog with the word "SO" soooo i'm not going to do that anymore. Hopefully if the video works there will be a nice video of some carnival parade above, but i havent had any luck so far uploading videos because the internet is really slow here. I noticed today that our main electical line is hanging from the roof down to the door where it conviently connects to us in the building. I am so hoping that there isnt a big storm with lightning while Im here because that would be tragic. Yesterday I played on this girls soccer team here at the residence and I think that it is a little tournamet that the residence is having inbetween itself. a week ago we played another team that was ok, but the team we played this week was amazing. they pretty much juggled the ball the whole time and when they felt like it was time to score they headed it in or something. luckily they werent too mean and didnt let the score go above ohhhh 20 to 2. i scored one of those 2 goals on a penalty kick, for some reason they always pick me to do the penalty kick and i havent missed one yet. Last weekend however me Rosario and phillip went to this city called Sitigs about 30 mins away and celebrated carnival. it was nice, supposedly it was going to be way better than mardi gras in new orleans, but honestly i think it was about the same. the only plus sitgis has on new orleans is that its on the beach. but the city is really small, and is also the gay capital of spain. why? im not sure. we left on the last train that went out at 10;20 but when we were walking in a policeman stopped us and told us we couldnt go in the door, i almost had a heart attack because that was the last train and we were going to have to camp out or something if we didnt get on it. So i already had a plan in my head about how i was going to james bond repel myself down the side of the train station and hop on the top of the train or something, but then the police man told us that we had to walk around and that the train was free tonight. so the night was saved and all of our anxiety was due to some miscommunication. whew* This weekend is probably going to be fun, my parents are coming to visit for spring break and we are going to hit up some more tourist hot spots, and go eat *hopefully* some good food for once. today at lunch we had ...suckatash, this omlete thing, and mystery mashed potatoes. i swear they put those mashed potatoes in everything here its scary. spainards also eat alot of bread, so all i eat is pastries and bread, so either im going to have a heart attack soon or nothing at all is going to happen im not sure. my friend kendra would probably be in heaven here cause they love bread and so does she.
its starting to warm up here, so Im just waiting for that perfect day where i can rush out to the beach and begin work on my spanish tan.
