Hey.

Random thoughts

Yo, bars and restaurants need to chill with their choices of pictures to clarify which bathroom is which. Fuckin everywhere its a picture or a vague like drawing that they think is fun but in real life its fucking confusing. Especially when I’m drunk. Like one bar has a like weird Andy Warhol drawing of Mick Jagger with long hair, which looks like a girl, and the other is another weird picture of Marilyn Monroe. Like, chill out. Just do the normal block figure dude and the girl with the dress and stop trying to confuse me.

Fucking shit is going down in Red Sox Nation right now  and I have absolutely no idea what is happening. I need Sportscenter. Seriously when I get home I am going to watch Sportscenter for like 4 days straight.

Ok so I was in legitimate sports withdrawl on Monday. Like I was actually depressed because I had not/could not watch Sportscenter. Tkac told me to download the PTI podcast, which I didn’t know existed, and I proceeded to get four days worth of that, two of The Scott Van Pelt Show and Bill Simmons podcasts each. I listened to three hours of sports analysis and legitimately felt better. I didn’t know sports could be an addictive substance.

Tuesday we all went to see a movie called “No Habra Paz Para Los Malvados” (there will not be peace for the bad guys). It was a pretty sweet movie, a rogue cop tracking down drug dealers/terrorists. I understood the story, not quite all the dialogue, but enough to know what was happening which was really cool. So the news is that Kegger is coming to visit me tomorrow (wed) and I haven’t heard from her since last week sooooo don’t really know what’s happening. Don’t have internet so I won’t know until tomorrow morning. Good luck Keggz!

10/7

Kegger did actually show up, she was traveling with her two friends from Australia/New Zealand. It was pretty fun, I had class both days so I couldn’t hang out with them much during the day, feel kinda bad about that, but I think they had fun both nights. It was cool to see her all the way over here in Europe. I booked the flights for my week off, $231 for 3 flights, not too bad I guess, still need to get hostels but whatever its going to be awesome. Madrid-Barcelona-Amsterdam for a week. I’ll take it. So basically I am just waiting for it to be Wednesday, yeah sure Segovia could be cool on Saturday whatever, but next week I only have 2 days of classes and then a week of travel and baller status. The trips we go on as a group are so fun I am vurry excited.

It’s crazy how I am used to life here now, like I have been here over a month (what? How?). It is going pretty fast and that scares me. I am not really anywhere close to fluent, it probably isn’t going to happen, I still freeze up talking sometimes (when I’m sober) and I don’t like that. My problem is I think too much about past tenses and that is bad. But overall I am pretty sure that I am improving with Spanish, which is an awesome feeling. I have a feeling that October is going to go so fast, which I do not want, but oh well. I need to remind myself to look around more, slow things down, really appreciate stuff. Like, every day we walk past a gigantic, intricately detailed, amazing church and I don’t even look at it anymore. That’s just silly. I remember this feeling during West Coast, that I am having such a good time that I take almost everything for granted just because it is all so awesome. I need to remember that I may not ever get a chance to have an experience like this ever again. I need to take more pictures too. My camera is so bad though haha it is pathetic. I got it in 2007 and literally haven’t used it since like August 07 sooo yeah. Haha so I have been playing Tyler the Creator and OFWGKTA for people and everyone is like What. The Fuck. Is wrong with you.
