Mas Cuentos de Madrid

Hola!

Well it's been epically long since my last post, so i figured I'd update on my vida. Monday was alright; i was still a bit tired from Paris, but hey, whateves.

On wed, right after school, Jill and I went to see Jess and Mimi, who had just gotten back to Madrid from Marsailles, and we took them to an awesome kebab place near Opera.  I however left them to their own devices and went home at 10:30, as i had school the nxt day...and I'm so proud of them bc they had a legit Madrid party night, ending at 530 am.  Welcome to Madrid ladies!

Thursday is when epic things started.  We meet Jess and Mims for lunch at Malespina, our FAV tapas bar, for amazing tapas and sangria.  Exciting.  Then they came with us to the Getafe to see Carols III, and then Jill and I had class...ugh.  However, that night, we all met up, along with Teresa Taylor!!!! and Ryan and I took them to the Office aka O'Connells for an amazing night.  Katie met up with us there, and her and me along with jess and mims did a Irish Car Bomb, much to the dismay of Rob, the Irishman from their hostel, who claimed we were ruining Guinness.  Ryan had made friends with British people, and came and got me so i could b their friend as well.  We met a bunch of awesome brits, our fav being Marc, basically a billionaire, who dropped 200 euros on 4 bottles of top shelf tequila, which he dolled out to anyone who walked his way.  4 shots later, Katie and I were pretending that we were from Harvard, along with Ryan (who was wearing a Harvard tee shirt), but alas my fun was cut short bc me ryan and teresa needed to catch the metro.  Oh best/worst part...Jill showed up with Ashley and Nick who were visiting Andy, and Marc took Nick by the hair, sat him down, and gave him a tequila shower.  Horrific.

Friday, we lunched at a kebab place, and then took the ladies to Corte Ingles so they could experience it, and then to Parque de Buen Retiro.  I then went home to do my hw, but 11pm found me and everyone else at Sol and later still back at O'Connells...where Kevin was waiting, already INCREDIBLY intoxicated.  Then Sondie came, which was magnifique, and we all sat around chit chatting...until Marc showed up again, and bought a bottle of tequila for our table!  After a few shots apiece, he decided he wanted to marry me, but over the summer in Vegas....i was like whatever lol (aka umm im never seeing u again so it dont matter to me).  Then, i peaced to get the metro home, saying peace out to jess and mimi! 

Yesterday, we went to Valle de los Caidos, which is Franco's burial ground, for a class field trip...this was after the first round of the field trip, which included a visit to Museo Reina Sofia, where i saw Guernica and a bunch of other really famous not so old stuff.  Jamie, Lulie, Jill, Katie, and I had a major bonding sess over Thai food (well i had already eaten a kebab), and it was basically epic love sess.  Then, we went shopping, where i found the PERFECT pair of skinny jeans and my own pretty gladiator-esque sandals. 

Today was a quiet day, as i think i have the stomach flu. I was suppose to see Lourdes with the girls to get coffee, and then go to Patricia's house for a cooking fest, but alas, i was mildly stuck to the bathroom :(.  However, i wrote a paper and did some research for one of my final projects, so it wasnt a total waste!  Also, Claudia and i had an epic bonding sess, where she told me about when she was a little girl and couldnt draw well, and how everything she did draw was ugly bc she didnt stay in the lines, but how now shes better.  And then she was like well i wont tell my mom bc ur not suppose to speak english, but how do u say Princesa in english?  We played that game for a while.  Then she told me i spend too much time on my computer.  I swear, shes the most precocious child i think ive ever met. The little Castilian accent really is just the icing on the cake. 

well, thats all for now...
HASTA LUEGO
