Barcelona has been intense and overall amazing. I think I have walked more in the past seven days than all of the walking I have ever done in my entire life. Being here brings mixed emotions. It is hard because I don't speak the language, and the way Spaniards do certain things isn't always what I am used to. I went to the supermarket the day I moved into my apartment and the lady at the register was saying something in Catalan which I couldn't understand. Well, apparently, in Spain you need to weigh your produce before you check out and get a sticker with the weight and price. I won't make that mistake again.
Today has been a lazy sunday. I did a load of laundry and hung it on the line to dry....you should see my room I have socks hanging everywhere because I didnt want them to fall down to the first floor! I did the dishes as well....pretty boring, I know. Tomorrow, classes start...Like the first day of any semester, I am nervous. I hope the professors are nice.
Now it's time to watch some of the 10 channels I have on TV. I'll have to go over to Pedro's if I want to watch Sponge Bob or MTV dubbed over in Spanish. But I do have Barca TV! All the FC Barcelona I could ever want!
