Yay, what a day...

So yesterday afternoon was pretty sweet...the morning, not so much, but the afternoon, yes... (oh, and I think my theater test went ok)

So after my siesta (gotta love those) I went to meet up with my prayer group; we had decided on meeting at a café called Pans & Co., which is right below the school...they have this deal where you get a coffee and either a croissant or two cookies for 1,75€, which is a pretty good deal compared with everything else in Spain...so I got the coffee (an Americano, so that it wasn't so horribly strong...and being an Americana myself, I figured it was pretty fitting) and the croissant (last one!) which was utterly delicious and flaky and had honey...yummmm...prayer group time was really good too, even if it was more of a "be there for each other and hear what's going on in everyone's lives" time...

Then I bought some sweet jewelry from the nice African man who had set up shop on the sidewalk by our table...The jewelry is for you, Mom, so I won't say exactly what I purchased... :) Then Danielle, one of the girls in the group, and I went looking around the main shopping area; then she went to Encuentro while I headed to the school to purchase plane tickets before they got any more expensive...then uploaded pics to facebook...check them out: they're in the album labeled "España." Then I had a lovely chat with the secretary about linguistic differences and accents and such, and then I was talking with another girl from the program who was wondering if we could do a Bible study during the remainder of the semester...Then I got back, and there was "pizza" for supper...What a day!!

And today, I'm supposed to meet with my intercambio--who's like my selected Spanish friend (I think I picked up that phrase from someone else's blog...probably from Karla's...thanks for the phrase...I liked it)...We're meeting at McDonalds which is basically right below the school as well...

Now, I should do some homework or something...
