Today was my first day of classes, and I think I'm going to really like them. It's just unfortunate that I have so many Rutgers students in my classes--I would have liked to meet more international students. In my grammar class, everyone's from America except a lady from Malaysia and a girl from Taiwan. In my literatura class that I think I will really like (mainly because my professor seems really smart and Spanish and adorable... and because I just love literature in general!), everyone's from America except one guy from England. He's cute, but he has that thing where he's like "hellz to the yeah I'm good-looking! Line up, ladiezzzz." I'm not on the prowl anyway, but I could tell that every single other girl was checking him out hahahah There are really few guys in this program, but I think that goes for almost all study abroad programs.
It's over 90 degrees every day here, but I think I'm getting used to it. Everyone still changes clothes multiple times a day though haha but I'm hoping as a group we're getting less stanky.
I went for a run today, and it was wonderful. I was unsuccessful in getting sangria last night (some girl took my drank) and having a good time, so I was kind of feeling bleh today, but running made me feel so much better. I finally had time to myself where I didn't really have to think about things. It's so nice running in a beautiful environment--and the hills really are doing something for my legs! We all agree that this month in Salamanca will give us all really nice legs and butts since there are steps and hills everywhere.
So I found this ice cream the other day, and I thought it was funny:
And this woman was posing on the street as a saint and not moving. Reminds me of Atlantic City but not.
I feel like everyone on this trip wants to go out and drink every night, and that's the only way to befriend all of them. Me being the very light drinker makes it harder to talk to everyone, but that's okay. I'm slowly making my way around to the entire group, and I'm ashamed to admit this but... I can't wait to do homework! I hear that they don't really give any on this trip though. SAD (but only for me, I'm sure).
Off to study in the Plaza and then get some croissants! I might opt for ice cream instead though... always a bad choice because it makes my stomach hurt but OH WELL!
