Tuesday Night

Well yestereday coming home from doing everything I started feeling a little blue again but I was able to talk to lots of people when I got home, and I had messages from lots of people which helped me feel a little better.  Later on, after our 9pm supper, our friend Shauna asked Colleen if we wanted to get out - Which we did!  We ended up going to this little tapas bar that is one metro stop away from where Shauna and her roommates live!  It was really fun.  I had my first taste of Sangria and it was good!  Well, everyone else thought it tasted week, but I had nothing to compare it to before so I thought it tasted pretty good!  Going out with other people and speaking english to them really helps me feel better again.  It is when we are only speaking Spanish - i.e. in our senoras house at supper - that I feel sick to my stomach and the anxiety kicks in.  I am going to try to talk to one of the counselers at school today and see if they have any suggestions on how to combate this.  After I got home last night from the tapas bar I was able to message people - it was only like 7pm back home but it was 2 am here so quiet hours were in effect and we would not have been able to video chat or call via skype... we can instant message though!

Wednesday morning/not:

I ended up not getting out of bed until 12:30 which was fine by me - it felt good to sleep in seeing as I didn't roll around awake for an hour or 2 last night like I have been every night so far.  It is 1:30 here right now and we are going to leave for our first (and only) class today in a little.  It starts at 2:30 and I would hate to be late on our first day!

See you all!

Love you lots!
