Soccer star? Yes

Sorry that I didn't update my blog yesterday, I know some of you quite enjoy my posts (Dad..), but I was very busy yesterday so I didn't get a chance.  In the morning, class, which yesterday, I have to say, was killer.  We did all stuff I have known forever (preterite v. imperfect) and he went on for the entire three hours without stopping for more than our 5 minute break.  Also, we got moved from our usual room, so we were all shoved into this tiny, tiny little room with really uncomfortable chairs.  Luckily, class today was much better! 

After class, we all headed home for lunch, and then at five to the fields to play soccer.  We were playing and per usual, I was scared of the ball and the spanish boys (they kick SO hard!) and just kind of minding my own business.  Then suddenly, I became a soccer star and scored three goals in a row! Against a spanish goalie! Very proud of that fact! Now Profe says I can play with the professionals next week! (I told him that I probably won't be that good of a player next week, since I never was a good soccer player). However, the rest of the game was very fun and we got to play for the entire hour this time.  Unfortunately, at the end one of Kevin's host brother's, Luis, fell and twisted his knee, so we had to stop about 2 minutes early.  It was pretty bad too, but he's okay I guess.  

Then after soccer last night, about half of the group went out for tapas.  Unfortunately, it didn't quite turn out to be so good.  We went with Kevin's host brothers (I guess there are 5, we know 3 of them because they do stuff with us often) because they would know where the good tapas are (my neighborhood-Barrio Chana), but because there were about 15 of us, we couldn't go to any of the nice places and ended up at this place where we had to sit outside (remember, it's warm here, none of that snow stuff) and the tapas (we didn't get to choose) were like ham sandwiches or something.  After that place we decided to try another tapas bar, where we could sit inside and choose.  Unfortunately, all the choices had meat in them this time too, so I didn't end up eating.  After that Danielle, Alyssa and I headed home for the night.  I haven't done anything today except go to class (which was shorter-I wish we had a few hours in the morning and a few at night, that would make it so much easier to sit through)  but tonight we are headed to see La Casa de Bernarda Alba, which I'm excited about! Hasta luego
