#1 Fan Inspires

Hello Hello,

Through a special skype call a few hours ago, I found out that I have a #1 fan on my blog! From now on I will try my best to better update my blog with more and more blog posts for this fan and for anyone else who is following!!!

To start off, this week has been very low-key especially with classes beginning, but thankfully the school work has been minimal. This week my only written assignments were a 1.5 page paper on my favorite movie and a 5 minute presentation to prepare on a Spanish news article. This is WAY different than my busy class and homework schedule at BC! But I am not complaining!!!!

On another note, in cinema class today I watched this very interesting movie called El espíritu de la colmena (Víctor Erice, 1973). It is about a young girl that is deeply confused on what is reality and what is fiction. In a way, this first month here has been a fictional vacation: a time to explore, splurge (somewhat), meet new people, etc. etc. Just recently reality has set in for me. Reality: I am here in Barcelona to actually study and live, which includes doing daily activities like going food shopping, cleaning my room and doing laundry. Yet even though reality has set in, I still have many weekends left to relive vacation time! ¡Viva España and let the weekend trips begin!!!
