Today started off as any other Tuesday. I was excited to go my class and get it over and done with because I had the rest of the day to sleep and get caught up on whatever sleep I had missed the past couple days. When I returned home from class, Mila stopped me and mentioned that I had received a package today and that it was on top of the desk in the bedroom. I knew exactly what it was!
I borrowed Mila's scissors to open the well-taped box and then I got to the good stuff! I had Gardettos, Funyuns, Doritos, Goldfish, Ritz Bits, Snickers, Reese's, fruit snacks, a pack of gum (no idea how that go through customs), pretzel rods, pretzel twists and probably more that I am forgetting. I had the goods!
I also had a nice note from home and some other things that I needed, such as bobby pins. I immediately snuck a pack of fruit snacks and sampled a Reese's. I forgot what peanut butter tasted like... Heaven! I then went and attempted to take a nap.
I was unable to get into deep sleep the whole day, before and after lunch, which was a shame because I knew that Wednesday was going to be exhausting as well.
I also got to chat with Asun today (my new intercambio) about meeting up. We decided to meet up on Saturday at 6 pm. I cannot wait because I like to meet new people and I need to practice my Spanish in other ways that just in class. I also hope to make a life long friend! :)
After dinner I had to ask Mila for a recipe for one of my classes. I asked for the puree of vegetables that we had just had at lunch. It seems like a very easy and decently quick meal to make so maybe I will try it at home. We were also watching the Real Madrid vs. Manchester United soccer game on television and we were rooting for Madrid. Mila is a die hard Madrid fan and she cheers and yells at the TV like I do for the Packers.
I wrote up the recipe on nice paper and went to bed. It had been a long day and I needed to get some rest, hoping that tonight I would be able to sleep.
