One thing that is really different in Spain, is that if it is your birthday, you have to bring things in. We were first clued into it last year. It was one of the spanish players birthdays, and he took the enitre team and spouses out to a really nice dinner. It was great, and he paid for it all. A little crazy, but that is what they do. So the team was asking Pat what he is doing, so now on Saturday, we are going to bring a bunch of stuff in. The team was asking if I am baking, well, I said its not my birthday, haha. Im actually baking cookies for Pat right now. I have to try and figure out what I want to bake for the team. I dont have any cake mix, so Im going to have to be creative.
Anyway, today was another day at school. At least it didnt rain. Yesterday, I was finished class, and was walking to the bus station, which is a 10 min walk, and it was down pouring. Even though I had an umbrella, i was soaked up to my knees, literally, and so hot from trying to walk so fast. Then I got on the bus finally, after missing the first one (I saw it pulling away as i was running up the hill), and there were so many people on it, and the men smell so bad, and people are holding on to the rails, cause there were no seats left, and I had this mans armpit in my face. Needless to say, Im glad that day is over, haha.
On to better news, we looked at 2 more apartments yesterday and we really loved one of them.. It won't be done construction for 10 days, but Im pretty sure, this time, they said we could get it. And we are supposed to get our car tomorrow, so we will see.
Well see ya soon
