Planning...

This may sound like one of the most snobby problems to ever have- but planning trips during my time in Spain has been driving me crazy.  I don't want to miss out on valuable time I have on another continent to explore more than Sevilla, but trying to coordinate with other people isn't an easy task.  So far I have a London trip planned and am waiting patiently to hear back from my little brother, Eric, to see if he has his spring break free to visit me (ERIC- LEMME KNOW!).

Today I picked out all of my courses that I want to take at the University not based on what truly interests me, but based on a) which classes don't meet on fridays, b) what's easy because I don't speak Spanish (claro) and c) which class will let me take an early final because I have to be back by the beginning of June for my internship.  I hope to be taking "anthropology of education" because the teacher is super flexible, but the class starts at 8:30 am.  I don't think I've been awake at 8:30 am in a LONG time but I gotta get back!

In addition, I finally got my allergy shots here in Triana, a neighborhood across the river.  It only cost 8 euros for both my shots, so instead of explaining to the receptionist that I do, indeed, have international insurance, I just paid the 8 euros for the company to reimburse.  After my shots, the doctor put some form of masking tape over the injection site.  It was pretty sketchy, not going to lie, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.  Thanks Menke and Kirsten for schlepping there with me- you guys rule.

I also notice that I sleep A LOT here.  I think it's because the blinds on my windows block out all of the light.  I am also avoiding writing a paper that's due Thursday.  I started it last night, but Belen came over and we hung out for literally three hours.  She gave me a pink blackberry cover for my birthday, just like the one she has.  I don't understand why she likes hanging out with  me- I probably sound like a third grader when I speak to her, but we do get along famously.  She's such a doll.
