Es Mejor...

hola!

so today we started our new classes. our intensive period is over and now normal classes begin.
this semester, i am taking spanish anthropology, great spanish literature, current events of spain, flamenco, and advanced composition. exciting...
this weekend i am going to Cordoba. its a city near Sevilla. people say its beautiful so pretty psyched for that
dont have classes on fridays anymore... whoo! so need to fill up my extra time around here...

so not much else is new. haven´t had time to put up new pictures... but i do have them! on facebook i mean.
sevilla continues to amaze me with its beauty. but it is also a city. a new city for me and so here are some things i have learned about the city and spain:

- taxis that are "libre" do not mean they are free of charge
- they looooooove olive oil
- siestas are crucial if you don´t want to die in the heat
- there is dog poop everywhere because there is no law that says you need to clean up after your dog
- pedestrians must be careful... cars have the right of way
- ice here is as big as my head, and not good for chewing =(
- you can spot an american because they are the only ones sweating. spaniards dont sweat
- unless you are old... then you also dont believe in deodarant
- bugs will bite your face


ok well, thats all for now. i will learn more later probably. ha.
must go home sooon...

paz,

liz

You did my favorite thing EVER. I loooove learning those little "fun facts" about a city.

Glad to hear you're enjoying yourself ^_^.

you should invest in a portable ice pick to break it into bitesize pieces :)

sounds super fun!!!
