Week 8: Goin to the beach

Well, last week was relatively calm. I continued in my tradition of class, nap, tv, lunch, read my book, homework, dinner and then whatever I end up doing with my friends. It was a pretty calm week.

That weekend, I went to Cádiz (south of Seville) to go to the beach with a few of my friends. There were 6 of us and we originally were going to go to the beach during the day, go out to eat, go out, and then sleep on the beach because we couldn´t find any hostels that weren´t already booked. We wanted to sleep there so we could hang out on the beach the next day too. Luckily, we didn´t have to be homeless. A couple of the girls got left on the bus and got off later down the road and when they were walking back to catch up with the group, they found an apartment hostel that absolutely rocked. We were supposed to have our passports, but we were able to talk them into letting us stay anyways. It was complete with bedroom, kitchen, living room, and an enclosed patio, all for a mere 25€ a person.

Weekend was great, had to have been 25,000 people there. Everybody left sevilla and went there because it gets so freakin hot here. Good times. All I did was eat burger king all weekend and it was great eating burgers again... american burgers (spanish burgers don´t come with meet or anything, jsut the patty).

Just a week left? Where does the time go? I am looking forward to my backpacking with Kubic though, should be fun, and only a week away!

Funny story to finish things off though: I´m really lucky in my homestay because I have A/C in my room that i can use at night because it is too hot at night to sleep well w/o it. The catch is that I am one in a million of students that has this luxury here. So here is the funny part. I came back one night and could not stop sweating, so I turned the ac on high, and fell asleep. Sadly, i woke up cold later, shivering in fact!!! I know, woe is me. So I reached up and turned what I thought was the knob for high to low and went back to sleep. I woke up in the morning sweating like mad and couldn´t figure out why. Apparently when i reached up in the dark, I turned it onto heat and left it on high, so it was probably 90º in my room! All I can say is that karma can be rough, haha.
