Dan came and visited 3 days after Christmas and I was able to show him around Castellon and celebrate New Years with him. We spent a few days in Barcelona as well and had a great time. It was fun to be able to share what I have learned with someone from home.
I took my finals for my regular classes here and have found out that I passed!! I am not sure what my grades will be back at WIU but I do know that I have passed them.
I spend 5 days in London! I went with a girl that I meet here from the states. It was a lot of fun, but very cold! We went to the Westminster Abbey which has a lot of history and is very pretty (but you can't take pictures), the British Museum which has items like the Rosetta stone, Cleopatra, and a tons more. We also saw a debate in Parliament, Big Ben, ate fish and chips and drank tea, went to Hyde park, notting hill, Piccadilly circus, convent gardens and much more. It was a great trip and I would love to go back someday.
I came back from London and moved into the bigger room that had become available because the woman who was living with Inma moved to be closer to her son. Inma's son has spent many Saturdays here painting the house and doing a little sprusing up and it has been nice to interact with him and his family as well.
Finally, I have started my classes here again. I am taking History of Medieval Europe and Photography both in Spanish. It is a challenge but I think it will be very good. I will also be taking a Spanish class that will begin in late March. It has officially been 5 months since I left home and tomorrow it will be 4 months til I return home. I can't believe how time has flown. I have so much to look forward to this semester, my parents visiting, going to Rome, my grandparents visiting, going to Germany, going to Madrid, and much more! I promise I will be better and updating this but to avoid a really long post I am going to stop now.
Until next time Adios!
