Classes and BLING
Yo, yo, yo. I still haven't blogged about last weekend and am about to go on another trip this weekend. SO, since that blog will wait till next weekend (since it will be long), I figured I would talk about class.
SO, here are my classes I'm taking. I'm striving for all A's in my classes. They all have a LOT of reading and presentations and papers. The frustrating part is that I already graduated and am done with school. I need none of these classes to graduate, but I still would love to end with straight A's. Haven't come close that since high school....
Spanish is pretty legit. My teacher, Raul, is REAL laid back. We spent the first 30 minutes yesterday talking about betting on soccer games. Then, when we had about 10 minutes left in class, he told us to open our books, so "we can say we did something today." haha. Yeah he's awesome. Everyone else has homework over the weekend, like essays or whatever. Our homework is to speak spanish. Legit.
Psych is reallllly interesting. It's this Irish woman that moved to Spain about 6 years ago. The class deals with culture, based on race, location, food, jobs, weather, sexual orientation, family values, etc. My class only has about 10 people in it, so we have been having a lot of good discussions.
The other three are...whatever. haha. The TV class is real cool. We will be studying different types of shows in Europe, including ones from the U.S. that are just dubbed. I get to do a presentation in that class on REALITY TV! Oh boy, that's gonna be fun! My film class will be interesting, I'm sure. I have been falling asleep a little, so I can't really comment too much on it. As for my art class, it's okay. I mean, I love the art and architecture in Spain and really appreciate it. However, our class deals with a lot of the history behind it, which isn't exactly my cup of tea.
Yay class. I'm trying to keep motivation for these classes, since all my friends actually NEED the classes they are taking. I can do this!
As for THIS lovely thing, I picked it up today for only 4 Euros. Two sneakers. I told my friends I was gonna buy it "just for kicks." (get it? haha...?) I have lost a lot of necklaces at the airport traveling back and forth from SD to the Bay Area over the four years. It's time to get the necklace collection going again.
Now, I gotta pack for the weekend. We are going to a nearby city called Costa Brava with EVERYONE from our program. It's gonna be a little crazy. I'm most excited about visiting the Dali museum. I love his art and think its genius. Later tonight, I'm meeting up with Dan Driver for another crazy ERC RA reunion night in Barcelona...while still having to wake up for the trip at 7am tomorrow. Ugh, I'm getting good at this minimal sleep and I don't think it's a good thing. haha
Take care folks! Here is the picture of almost everyone who came out to celebrate my 22nd birthday in SD. Much love to you all!
More updates on Sunday...probably Monday. Peace homiesssssss
