Hi!! Okay, so I'm only sort of back right now. I'm still not settled into a permanent apartment, as our first bet turned out to be a dud (despite being Right Next To The Beach, which some of you might know is like my writing heaven dream...). Anyhow, things are a bit back on track now and hopefully we'll be out of our tiny hotel by tomorrow. *Fingers crossed* eh?
So, here are the few things I've noticed about this city since I've been here:
-There is a lot more PDA than I'm used to. Now, I'll admit that I have spent much of my time locked in a small lab for the past few years, but there are a LOT of people making out on the streets here. It's kind of strange. And cute. To an extent...
-My Spanish is rusty. I'm getting by, and loving the practice. Also, I've been breaking out the dictionary--vocab for random stuff (like, how to ask is an apartment is for rent) is in need of some help. At least I'm not tripping over my words quite so much any more.
-Barcelona is a lot like San Francisco. Walking the streets, I find myself constantly making the comparisons between the two. It's fun, if a little strange to be like, "wait, where am I again?"
-I am getting too old for jetlag. Seriously. I just want a normal night's rest!
Okay, I'll be back with more interesting stuff soon, and some pics, but that's it for now. How is everyone else out there doing? Catch any random people making out on the street corner lately? ;)
