Move like this

Its always difficult to live, let alone study in a city with such a rich culture, food, and people. It makes for those of us trying to get some form of education here either extremley difficult or nearly impossible. For the 12 other people that i live with, its clearly a combination of the two. To wake up every morning to see the sierra nevada in the distance and to the listen to the town come alive with street windows filled with discount sales, and the sweet smells of suizas de chocolate in the air, it is a difficult task. Needless to say work needs to get done, and despite my late evening and celebrations for my birthday i am awake at 9 am rip roaring and ready to go. I'll get my work done this morning on the terrace and drink my coffee, write my papers, bask in the southern spain sun and then reward myself with a little exploring.
I can't say that my other roomates have the same plan as i can clearly see one of them past out drunk on the couch in the monastery with spanish cheese puffs on his face. Ah yes a perfect example of a low tolerance.
I'm looking forward to take some time to myself to be able to go to the local music shop this afternoon and get some new music and some language books. Additionally due to the fact that January is the huge sale month in Spain and dresses and jeans are 9 euor everywhere, a trip down the shopping district might be on the list. Though the Spanish have been proven to be fairly hospitable, they are the messiest people when it comes to department stores. The department stores are an absolute MESS! In spain you dont put clothes back on the hanger after you wear them, instead you throw them at these sad sad souls that are paid to put clothes back on the hanger and fold them behind long tables... ALL DAY. If you have ever left your dog in the car and seen the look on its face... BINGO thats EXACTLY what they look like.
Tonight we will go to a flamenco club to learn some Spanish dance and see if we can move as well as they do. ( This ought to be interesting!)

Tomorrow i plan to go to the local market to get some fresh fruits and vegetables to have a nice family dinner as i promised a few individuals, who can neither boil water or cook pasta, to teach them to cook some simple staple dishes. Knowledge is power after all, i mean thats the reason we are all here on the course correct. Well maybe everyone except for cheese puff boy.

Besos y amor.
