Wednesdays and thursdays are always the hardest because I go to classes I don't necessarily enjoy with teachers who don't seem to really enjoy the whole teaching thing themselves which makes being excited about English hard. Having said that, today (wednesday) is also one of my favorite days because the mothers sell bocadillos. Bocadillos are the most simple and inexpensive sandwiches ever, and yet maybe it's because by that point I am starving or maybe just that I've been thinking about them since last wednesday, they are so wonderful!
It's so weird to have... rituals in Spain. I don't really know how to explain my thought process with this; but now there are things I always do and have come to sort of look forward to. For instance, my roommate leaves on the weekends to spend them with her family in Alcázar so on Sunday evenings we always go for coffee. Or that Mariteli has just gotten used to me being in the office during the recreos responding to emails and such and always has an extra mandarin to offer. It's good, but bitter sweet because I am constantly reminded of the fact that my heart is forever yearning for home, but now I know that I am going to miss these little things that I have begun to love.
Two of the English teachers are gone until friday at a seminar so this morning I had two whole hours free which was so nice! Blah, my poor laptop is now reminding me of it's near dead battery and I forgot the charger so I'm off....
