So, after my super lazy Saturday, everyone met out in front of the school. While we were waiting for everyone to show up, along came Spongebob! He figured out we were Americans, and proceeded to chat with us for awhile. We taught him the theme song in English, which was a bit of an adventure :) Turns out it was his bachelor party, so all his friends had a shirt with his picture done Obama-style and an unfortunate phrase below it. The whole thing was quite amusing, and he had his picture taken like a zillion times. They knew enough English to more-or-less communicate, so it was a fun mezcla of Spanish and English. Unfortunately I didn't take a picture...but it was fun.
Then Chris showed up and everyone else, and we sort of chatted and hung out a while since no one could decide where to go next. Large groups without one person in charge and without a predetermined plan don't plan well, I've noticed. We finally decided to go to La Luna which is right by the the school as well. It was nice, and I had an Eristoff Black and Sprite which turned my tongue fairly black. Is fun. Also danced a bit, before moving on. We were going to go to Shout, but we basically just spent a couple of hours in the street drinking. It was pretty crazy, but normal since it was pretty packed with others doing the same. Nothing is really hopping until like 3am, so everyone hangs out in the streets. I discovered another drink I like, Red Bull (or Burn here, but it tastes really similar) and vodka. I'm not sure an energy drink so late was a good idea though, cuz it took a bit to get to sleep that night. Right by where we were is this neat little restaurant that sells cones of fries, so I got one of them. Unfortunately, I handed them to a friend so I could use the restroom and by the time I got them back, they were half gone :( Were tasty though. Left soon after, cuz Sarah was ready to go. Had a fun night though!
So yeah, about sleeping. Took me a bit to get to sleep and then I didn't get up until after 3...I think I'm going to limit my staying out late to one night a week, cuz I don't like missing my whole weekend. And I spent like 12 E last night, not something I want to do on a regular basis. After I got up, I had a delicious lunch of pisto which is amazing and something I'm going to have to make back home cuz its relatively easy. Also had delicious spongy bread and what I think was roast beef and potatoes. Then did my homework for tomorrow and basically just relaxed cuz it was suuuuuuper hot today. Then I went to church at San Millán, and it was a much better experience. It's still a lot different from back home, and likely just a function of it being a Spanish Mass instead of American. Much less singing though, which I was sad about. Hopefully at least the catedral will have more music! I made a cheat sheet with all the prayers and responses which helped some too. They go so super fast though, was impossible to keep up at times! Will have to practice. Came home, had popcorn with my madre and then cena, and basically just a chill evening.
