Una Cap de Setmana Molt Be

So It's been a long ass time since I wrote anything here, i KNOW! but, internet now works in my apartment so I can do this and start loading photos.

I went to Barcelona for my first time on Friday to meet up with another girl in our program who is really cool! She showed me around all day then I had a few hours to myself and I went shopping (of course) and got some sweet new threads as well as another flag for my bedroom, no surprise there...

Then, afterwards I met a group of some very cool girls that are Americans but live in Madrid and hopefully I will get to see them when I go up there! We all had a bunch of brews at the hostel then I went out with the girl in our program and her boyfriend to a place that I'm pretty sure defines what 'hole in the wall' means...

The next day consisted of buying the cheapest bus ticket and arriving in Zaragoza all by myself, with nowhere to stay and no map! As a resourceful young whippersnapper, I was able to find my way to a hostel and met some other American girls there!! We spent the night, well, botellon-ing and it was a great time. We definitely met some characters that night as well as being able to listen to a live French rap band... they were PHENOMINAL. They will be big, I'm sure, but I can't remember their name!!

Then I was able to come back home to Tarragona... I would have liked to keep going but two hard nights out and a lot of bus travel with very little sleep is a little tough on the body...

Cool stuff from the weekend:
- travelling alone and not making plans in advance is the only way to travel for me, from now on. seriously.
- buses are so cheap, but you have to handle the idiots that play video games with the sound all the way up, the jackasses on the phone, and the old ladies that didn't shut up the entire time
- some nice looking girls in Zaragoza! ; )
- Barcelona is the shit...
- The above picture is the huge basilica in Zaragoza... It's right in the town center where everyone is out partying all night... the thing is just huge and ornate and magnificent.. I went in to check it out and there was a full on mass going, crazy!
- I was nothing but smiles on the way home yesterday because seriously, this was the best weekend ever. Thanks for everyone that was a part of it!!
- I can no longer speak in Spanish with my roommates, we set today as the date when I have to begin only in Catalan... it's going to be interesting

Moltes gracies per lliure! Please stay in touch everyone!
