Today I actually went to the correct classes (yay!). They were pretty easy for me; it was all review, and kind of nice. I'm going to wait until Monday before I talk to the people in charge of the classes. Maybe by then it'll get harder. Friday I'm going to talk to the people in charge of CEA and see if they have any pointers for me. In the mean time I'm cutting as much English out of my day as I can. Yes, I'll still write and talk to all of you in English, but everyone else I'm going to talk to in Spanish. Gio said he'd help me out and correct me when I'm wrong/fill in the blanks for me. Hopefully with his help I'll be speaking better by Monday.
Tomorrow's the last day of classes for the week (I don't have classes on Fridays). That'll be fun later on; I'm hoping to be able to travel on the weekends. It'll be expensive, but I know it'll be worth it. Plus, who wouldn't want to spend their entire summer at Dairy Queen earning back all of the money they spent? This Friday we have a brunch with the CEA staff so they can see how we are adjusting. After that I'd like to try to go to the Prado Museum of Art. Saturday will, hopefully, be spent taking all of the pictures that I missed on Monday and Sunday I might just rest. It's still up in the air though.
Well, since I promised I would I need to give a little shout out to Mr. Ian Lloyd:
I LOVE YOU!!
(I was worried I wouldn't have anything to write about so he told me to make a post containing only that...).
Well, that's all for today. Hopefully something a little more exciting will happen tomorrow.... We'll see!
Good night! Love you all!
XOXO,
Carol
What? Something more exciting? Honey everyday you have something exciting to tell us. I hope you really are enjoying my text messages I send you every morning and every night and also hope you enjoy my daily comments. I know we are both homesick for each other but this is helping me feel close to you and hopefully helping you to feel close to me even though there are soooo many miles between us. Oh and buy the way....I know you LOVE Ian. I have to laugh and agree with you about the first week. It has gone fast however it seems like you were away forever already? I like the idea of you only speaking in spanish from here on...it should really help you out. Carol, I am so overwelmed with emotions. I miss you, I love you, I long to talk to you and see you, but most of all I am proud of you!...(and Erika...NO CRYING). Jess and I have had some good conversations about your boys...she better be either facebooking them to you or writing them down for when you skype this weekend. I can't wait until tomorrow to come home and check your blog again...it is the first thing I do when I get home everyday. I am counting the hours until I skype with Nate and Ian this weekend and Jess and the boys will see you then too. The countdown is going down pretty fast and Jess and I said when we are done with this class you will be 1/2 way home...hang in there we love you! I love you and will text you good morning later....love Momma.
