Well Friday was a long day of class. We had a quiz in Literary Analysis, I feel pretty good about that so hopefully I did well. After class I went shopping with Jana and Kaitlyn and I bought a shirt for 3euros and another dress for 10euros. I love rebajas (sales). Friday night I stayed in because we had our school trip on Saturday morning at 10am.
Saturday we went to Xativa. Its a pueblo (small town) outside of Valencia. There are musuems, churchs, and a Castle. We went into the church and the musuem. In order to get to the Castle, you have to hike up a huge hill. We did that. The weather was amazing. It was sunny and probably close if not above 70. We were all so hot because we thought that it was going to be cold there. It was nice. I made a new friend on the trip, Melissa, who actually lives by me so that was really nice. After the trip, Jana, Kaitlyn, Melissa and I went to an American Restuarant called "Hollywood". I order chicken fingers and french fries. The fries were good and the chicken fingers weren't bad they just went like the ones I love from Red Robin. It made me sad but it was exciting to eat American food. After that I called my sister and it was really good to hear her voice.
I was going to go out last night for Valentines day but I ended up not going. I had a bit of a rough day because I am still a little sick with sinus's and I was feeling pretty homesick. I really wanted a hug from my parents yesterday and wanted to see my friends. I was just feeling down about not having that certain person I connect with here, like a best friend. I cried too last night which was the first time thats happened since I first got here. But it's okay. I am doing better today and sometimes you just need a good cry.
Today I went and walked around with Melissa, the new friend I made, and then after lunch we hungout again and walked around some more. I also did some homework and watched part of 7 prouds in Spanish which I was confused about because it's not on DVD yet. But oh well. We also booked tickets for this coming weekend since we don't have school friday. We are going to Mallorca. It's an island to the east of Valencia. I am so excited. My host family loves it there and it's beautiful.
This week I have a quiz in phonetics. I am also meeting my intercambio tomorrow, Carla, I am really excited to meet her. Other than that nothing new. Mallorca for the weekend. I am really excited.
Love you
