oh spain...

well, I woke up for my 8:45 class only to find out that it had been cancelled when I arrived at the modern language center. great. this is the same teacher who didn´t show up to class on tuesday... mildly frustrating. but now I have plenty of time to check up on my email!

LIfe is pretty sweet here in Granada. it´s been rainy and gross though, the past few days which is not fun since I walk everywhere in this city. yesterday, we stayed inside and watched a spanish movie called jamon jamon. It´s one of Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem´s first movies. they´re both soo young in it and there´s so much racy material. after the fall of Franco´s dictatorship in the 1970´s there was a cultural explosion in Spain. now that movies and music are uncensored, the 1980´s were crazy years in Spain. so Spanish films tend to not hold back on juicy details. if you´re interested in seeing Javier Bardem, the current pride and joy of spain, bull fighting naked, I advise you to see this movie.

That´s it for now... my parents and sister are coming to visit tomorrow!!!! they´ll be here for the week. I can´t wait to see them and show them around granada!!!

hope everyone´s having a great week!
ciao!
