Last weekend we all went to Cantabria which was a bit chilly and rainy but absolutly beautiful. We took a sky car thing all the way up to the top of a mountain and climbed around for a bit. Totally choice for meditating i must say. We spent one night in a Paradore. Its similar to a 4/5 star hotel but theres only on in each city if that and it's always somewhere with an excellent view and/or location. Our view was amazing as well as the location even though it took an hour and a half drive up a windy road to get there.
This week was the first week of classes and they were pretty interesting. im enrolled in Latin American lit, Spanish civ, Latin American civ, and a movies and play class (which is actually a lot harder than it sounds!) So far I'm not enjoying the classes as much as our intensivo but then again the teachers don't look like Javier. Next week I (hopefully) start my internship at the elementary school as a teacher's assistant. They can't seem to find a space where they can fit the kid's classes into my schedule and i will be miiiighty unhappy if I'm unable to do this. But there is still a plan B! If they cant figure out a schedule for me i've already found a few places that are looking for english tutors for spanish kids and it pays. Kind of going against the rule given by JMU saying you're not allowed to work in spain but hey, if they can't figure out my schedule then i'll have to do it myself.
My new madre has slowly stopped feeding us as much to our pleasure. I thought I might have died from all that food but either i'm expanding or the food portions are smaller. Either way, my chances of death by food are much smaller now.
Tomorrow we go to Valverde to go horseback riding!! eeeee :)
