7-29-09 Wednesday...nothing too exciting.

Today Kaila and I didn’t do too much. I woke up again before the alarm went off…I think it’s because I am getting enough sleep finally. I am sleeping throughout all the night…but I guess I woke Kaila up last night because I was talking in my sleep? Haha, who knew? I got up around 8:30 to shower and get ready. I was an American today for sure, I wore shorts and a tank top. Just the looks of my clothes had American written all over me…oh well. We ate our breakfast and were off to the bus stop. This time we were right on time, I think we waited for 2 minutes and the bus was there! I think we may have the time down now, every 15 minutes we’re thinking the bus comes around. We stopped at our usual places to get some bread and fruit. I’ve stopped buying water now because we can drink the tap water…they have a purifier, which is awesome! We went on the computers to email, blog, and facebook, like always. I am beginning to think you will all know my daily routine by about Friday (if you don’t already know it)! BUT today we did more, not just emailing, blogging, and facebooking. We booked our hostel stays in Paris and Madrid…about 20 Euros each, it was the cheapest we could find! I also got my EuRail pass today!! So now I am “officially” going to Paris and Madrid! YAY! After all the excitement, I went to class and we reviewed for our test tomorrow. I am pretty confident I will do well on this test. Its stuff I have learned before it’s just my speaking I am worried about! I hope I do well to move up to the next level! After school, Kaila ordered her bus ticket to go to Madrid, she’ll be on a bus for 7 hours! I am so glad I bought the EURail because it’ll take us 2.5 hours! She isn’t coming to Paris because she is on a tight budget. So after she finished that, we went to the grocery store to buy some things to make a lunch instead of buying the bread and fruit everyday! I picked up some granola bars as well. We got some bread, turkey meat, cheese, and mayonnaise for sandwiches. We took the bus home and were home the earliest we’ve ever been since we arrived, around 6:30! I studied for awhile, did a composition for UWGB, and now am going to read before we eat dinner. For dinner we had a way different meal…something I’ve never tried before. It was potatoes with squid and octopus. I didn’t eat all of it, but I did eat some of the squid and octopus. I had some kiwi for dessert. It was a nice relaxing night minus the studying and composition writing! Oh well, I’ll have to write 3 more compositions and five page paper before September 7th! Ahhh! Talk to you later 
