Manpris, Mullets, y Bob Ross

So today was the first day of clases it was not too bad. We have classes from 9am to 2:30 pm of course with no lunch breaks because Spainards eat about 2 to 3 pm. Last night we found some what I like to call ¨local flavor¨ we had lomo y patatas, the steak was amazing!! We usually just pick something off the menu to try and if we don´t like it eat it anyways or pass it to someone who does. I went home by 10:30 and again my family was asleep, I must be living with some strange Spainard because everyone else´s family stays up very very late like 1 to 2 in the morning. Also note to all people back home if I havn´t mentioned it before Spainards watch more TV than Americans. Also, Everytime that I sit down to eat they tell me I need to engordar (get fatter). Now, let move on to more about classes, I had a grammar, conversation, and then culture class last. My conversation maestro es mi favorito porque el es muy simpatico y comico. He´s kinda a young guy, funny. For all of you who know Bob Ross well my culture teacher looks like him! He has huge curls and we´re learning about fine arts so I think it goes together. Other notes to mama: my straightner is dead or so I think it is so my hair is going to be ugly the whole trip and will be pulled up. There is a lot of graffiti here but noticeably not on walls. Mullets and Manpris (capris that guys wear) are the huge hit here, look for them in an America near you. Finally for all of those who are wondering NO we don´t have AC. Its crazy right, we all have to open our window in the day and close it at night. ¡Que rediculo!
