homework?!? what homework!?!?

Word o´ the Day: albaricoque=apricot

To be honest, today was rather uneventful. We had classes again today and again, it was fantastic. We started working in that textbook that I ran all over the city for and yes, I will admit it was worth it. Already we have completed an entire chapter and are starting a new one tomorrow. I can´t comprehend the pace we are going, but it´s good though. I came home and after an interesting lunch I did my homework. My roommate, luckily didn´t have any but I, regrettable did. Heh. It wasn´t that bad at all, and I actually was excited to sit down and review and practice what I had learned that day. Especially when I had a native Spaniard sitting right next to me. As I did my homework, Feli watched her daily tv shows. Thankfully, she doesn´t watch those horrible soaps that feature low-quality acting and even lower-quality storylines. No, she prefers shows like "Corazon a Corazon" which are the equivalent of EXTRA or Access Hollywood in the U.S. I must say, that in watching today, I found out that Angelina may be pregnant with Brad´s baby and that Jessica Simpson and Britney Spears made Mr. Blackwell´s Worst Dressed list this year. Man, I´m glad I can stay up to date on my Hollywood gossip, even while overseas! :) Heh.

After I finished my homework, I got ready to go to a little get together the visiting professor from PLU (Jim Predmore) was having for us at his piso. Nothing fancy, just an opportunity for half of our AHA group of 42 to get together and chat for a while. It was a good time and I´m starting to feel more comfortable with the other students.

Today for lunch we had fish again... I´m not a big fish aficionado as they would say here. But as always, I tried it and ended up eating most of it even though it wasn´t my fave. Feli also made a tortilla española for us which was really good. I´m still not a huge fan of eggs, but the way she mixed in some potatoes and cheese and I think mushrooms, it ended up being alright.

She surprised us with dinner tonight though. Pizza. It was so cute. It was one of those refrigerator pizzas "jamon y queso". Heh. It was so cute, especially since she knows that pizza is LaDonna´s fave food. She tries so hard to please us, I only wish that I could do more to help around the house.

Man, I need to get some new walking shoes and another warm hat...if I had only known!
