LIFE.

well I just wrote an extraordinarily long blog updating you all on my trip with my mom. And not much has really happened since then. On Easter I went to a procession and saw some people who looked like the KKK, but they weren't, just some Catholic sinners. I am becoming somewhat overwhelmed with the amount of work that keeps piling up in school. I think I'm in denial that I have to do work in Spain.

Last week we went to see Tensión Sexual No Resuelta, a Spanish film with API, which was basically a porno, no surprise there. Then this week my friends and I went to see Querido John (Dear John) and I thought it was the dumbest Nicholas Sparks movie I have ever seen. It was depressing and I felt that I left the movie less of a person than when I arrived.

I have been trying to go out a lot more because I realize that after I get back to the US, it will be a very long time before I can go out again (aka 9 months), and the nightlife in Granada is way better anyways. And, though I didn't expect it to happen, I am getting sad that I am leaving people again. I don't know why but I didn't expect to make good friendships like I did last semester, but I must be crazy. Now I have amigas in Wisconsin to go visit! haha. But luckily Allison, Jess, and King live in the Pac NW, so I will be seeing them this summer and hopefully for years to come.  :)

Travel news: In two weeks the girls and I will be in Lisbon, Portugal! It's going to be a lovely beach weekend (weather permitting) and I'm totally pumped. And the weekend after that...the girls (minus Emily) are flying to MARRAKECH!! This will be Africa experience #2, for 5 days this time, and I'm expecting it to be 10 billion times better. I am nervous because we're going with girls, no boys, and we're not going with a tour group. But this is what it's all about. ADVENTURE.

As for now though, I need to get some school work done, unfortunately. I have been reading up a storm for my Images of Women in Spanish Lit class, and I would really like to get a head start on my papers that are due at the end of the term. If only I could just be here in España, sans school.

TIME GOES BY TOO FAST.

un besito,
MacKenzie
