According to the graph that API so nicely supplied all students with, we are all going through the "mental isolation" phase of studying abroad. I thought that was a load of bull, but now I definately see it. At this point, everyone is generally pretty sick of one another, stressed over making tavel plans, and ready to kill their roommate. Yeah the graph was right. It's weird now that we're all pretty used to the city and the lifestyle, but we only have about 2 1/2 months left.
Besides awkward adjustment periods, I've been trying hard to tie down my travel plans during our two weeks off. The first week I've booked a flight to England and back, and I plan on travel around the country for the entire week. The second week off, I'm working on a trip to Prague, Paris, and Amsterdam that's definately going to be pricey. And last but not least, a friend is going to Ireland for a weekend and asked if I wanted to go. Umm, OF COURSE! Only problem is, I seriously have no more money. I greatly underestimated the amount traveling would cost and I'll be lucky to have 2 dimes to rub together after Prague, Amsterdam, and Paris. I'm hoping to pout to my (IRISH: HINT HINT) Padre for that one.
Other then that, everything's been going well. The familia here is still great. Delek (the two year old) got an eraser stuck up his nose today so he had to go to the hospital. His mom tried to use my roommate's tweezers to get it out and she was so grossed out I bet she'll buy new ones. Bahaha it's just boogers. Delek also threw my hairbrush out the window of our 8th floor apartment. I wasn't happy. I also watch Mickey Mouse Club with him daily and have finally learned all my shapes in Spanish.
I've got to go find a costume for the Carnaval in Cadiz!
