Friday the 13th

Tomorrow I am going to Extremadura with the Georgetown group. I'm not eexcited about how early we are leaving. My host family tells me that the name of the province applies to the weather...it is very cold in the winter and very hot in the summer. It is not very touristy, although it is supposed to have some of the best jamón ibérico in Spain.

Real classes start Monday, which is not very exciting.

I think I cut off about two pounds worth of hair this week.

The past two days I have been catching up on the latest from Hollywood at the nearby theatre that shows movies in their original language with subtitles, a rarity here, and offers a student discount for the first show of the day. "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" made me cry. "Revolutionary Road" wasn't a bad movie but it made me kind of just hate life.
