Hooray! I am done with my two week intensive Spanish course! I thought I'd give you a glimpse of what the past two weeks have been like: ( this is probably more for me that you. I just want to remember what my routine has been like so far)
8:15 a.m. I wake up and brush my teeth, wash my face etc
8:40 a.m. I eat desayuno in the kitchen. Mama Pepa sets out the food the night before. She usually makes coffee, leaves out cereal, oranges, toast that I throw on the panini-like grill. She sometimes leaves out the milk and butter on the table. I'm pretty sure that's not good for you, but I use it anyways.
8:50 a.m. get dressed and get on my laptop to check my email and talk to people who might still be up in the States.
9:25 a.m. leave the house to catch the metro. The metro is quite nice and VERY clean. People on the metro are extremely quiet. No one talks or smiles.
9: 40 a.m. get off the metro and walk past gorgeous buildings and shops to get to the CIEE center.
10:00 a.m. begin class . My professor's name was Marga. She refused to say anything in class in English. Even when explaining stuff we would not understand! She's was overall fine but I felt like we had entirely too much work for that class. I also found out that I am not getting credit for this class, so I was quite unhappy.
11:30 a.m. we get a break and most people go to the coffee shop or this convenience store owned by some Chinese people close to the study center. So weird to hear Asian people speak Spanish. I can't imagine what people think when they hear me speak.
1:00 p.m done with class! my favorite time of the day. I head to the metro and take it home. My senora prepares my lunch and then I take a nap, do some homework, etc.
