I have been going to my classes, Old English and Linguistics, for about a week now. I finished my Intensive Spanish course a week ago and I received an 81% on the exam which is considered very good here so I am very happy. Today I started my new Spanish class with a little bit of complication. I was going to take the class in the afternoon since I have classes in the morning, but there were not enough students to make up the class in the afternoon so the professor and I made an arrangement. I will be going to her class for the first part and then attend my other classes study the rest of the days materials on my own on Monday and Wednesday and then every other Friday I will attend her class and on the Fridays I do not attend her class I will go to my other classes. It works out very nicely with all of my professors so I am a happy girl!
On to more exciting things. This past Saturday I went on another excursion to a Medieval city named Morella. It actually has a wall built up around it that was used to protect it back in the day. It was so beautiful!(Check out my 365 project to see pictures!)
We ate at a nice restaurant and had a typically Spanish meal. First, a salad with veggies and tuna, followed by a soup with rice and beans and what we all think was fish. Third, roast with peas, potatoes, and carrots and finally a mouse. And of course there was wine.
We then went to this high ropes/zip line course, which was a lot of fun. I was hesitant at first but I was really happy I went in the end. I was with the first group of students to go. It was a lot of fun. We would go across and through all of these "obstacles" and then go down a zip line and then repeat. I am waiting for other students to put pictures up since I did not take my camera and as soon as I do I will post them.
I was very sore the next day though, with the walking up to the castle and then the high ropes course there was a lot of exercise!
Other than that I am just getting ready for fall here. I will be going to Salamamca the 29th-31st with about 20 students through the university and it should be a good time! I am looking forward to it.
Any questions you all have please leave them in the comments and I will answer them in my next blog!
Besos (kisses)!
