So, I have returned to BitWeb, my internet cafe of Choice, which is currently packed to capacity with computer nerds! Yeah!
Well, I had my first day of class today, and it was okay. I mean, our classses are small, and intimate, which definitely makes speaking less intimidating. Other than that, nothing special. My teachers seem nice enough, and everyone is okay.
It is incredibly hot, and I live very far away, so my walk today was a little worse than I expected.
In between classes, I actually had a cafe con leche with a few classmates in a little plaza in Granada, it was incredible. Sitting in the shade at noon in Spain, people and dog watching (there seem to be a lot of dogs here in Spain) we just spent a few minutes breathing in what was now our life. It was amazing, and then, a lady carrying a tiny amplifier, a microphone, and wearing high waisted green pants (sounds fashionable, was definitely not) showed up and began to sing. Right infront of where we were sitting. Then, after she sang, she asked for money. But during her concert, she just sang and sang, for what seemed like no apparent reason. That was a bit funny.
Ohh, MADONNA IS PLAYING. It seems like everywhere one goes in Spain, be it a internet cafe, a regular cafe, a nice restaurant, a discotheque, the music remains the same American hits and Dance beats mix. Seriously, this is the soundtrack of Granada Spain if there ever was one.
Also, I was speaking with my host mom´s daughter, my host sister, and she told me about Spain´s feelings toward Portugal, and I realized something...
Portugal is Spain´s CANADA!!! HILARIOUS!!!!

Hey Zaika
We are here - just got home from Cleveland. Got all your messages, tried to call you several times, but kept getting auto-replies in Spanish, busy signals or no connection at all. Oh well, now we are home and we'll make sure to get connected tomorrow.
We are yet to light papa's candle on a Klondike bar.
We miss you so much!!!!
Keep writing, we look forward to reading your blogs every day because it's so much fun and so funny (as well as educational :)).
from papa:
Cleveland rocks! Not only we got to see museum, we also saw their air show, with sky jumpers, military jets, and small airplanes.We had a fancy breakfast, and my birthday lasted an hour longer, because we came to Cleveland at 11: 10 Chicago time, but it was already 12:10 local time ! Presents were awesome, I opened mama's, Sveta's. Jenya's. I am still getting presents from Anyuta and Lena, I got stuff from Stella and Gena. We had a bottle of really good wine and some fine snacks. We are glad you feel good in class, I don't think that everybody expects from you perfect knowledge and understanding of Spanish from day one, but definitely you'll be there. Again, you are smart, just keep studying, but do not forget to enjoy your stay also !
