Wednesday night went really well with Bella, the woman I am tutoring at the Centro. She is fluent and speaks English so well. She just wants practice with American English because she deals with a lot of Americans at her job. So basically I get paid to hang out with her, talk, and teach her American slang. Awesome!
Thursday I had to reprimand my students for the first time. There is only so much whispering, giggling, and staring at your expense before you take it as disrespectful. Mom told me to be a little hard at the beginning so you can have fun the rest of the year. Hopefully I got my point across!
Friday night the girls and I went out for dinner! We had squid meatballs, pizza, spaghetti bolognese, a cheese plate, and Lemoncello. It was delishhhh!! We didn't even start dinner until close to midnight. That is insane, and only in SPAIN!!
Saturday we did a lot of bebopping around town looking at different shops. We found the farmers market where families buy fresh meat, seafood, produce, and eggs. Later we went grocery shopping and our arms were sooo full!! We had so many things in our hands and were almost a Kilometer away from home. It was a full on race that left our arms sore the next day.
Saturday night Alejandro came into town and we made him an American feast. I fried chicken, and we all made baked mac n cheese with Apple Crisp for dessert. All homemade, all soo freakin good. We inhaled it and began the game Edward 40 Hands. Basically you tape a 40oz beer to each hand and can't take them off until you finish. It's more of a game to beat your bladder. I won!! Then we went out to a bar to watch a soccer game, went to another to play darts, and ended the night dancing. I found an old gordo to dance Salsa with because they aren't creepy, actually dance, and are good at it! Yay!
Sunday was our day of rest and we caught the movie Paranormal Activity 3. Scary movies definitely translate well because I was squirming and squealing!!
Sunday night it rained for the first time since I have been here. Yes, one month later and the weather finally changed from hot and sunny.
Monday I had my presentation for Halloween at my school. I dressed up like Little Red Riding Hood! My kids loved the presentation, especially the little movie at the end. I had them singing Jeepers Creepers though probably none of them knew what the hell they were saying. Cute anyways! Here is my presentation:
My work schedule got changed so now I only work Tues-Thurs. I am one lucky girl!!
