Even in Spain, mi amigos love Hat Fashion Shows!

These past 24 hours have been FANTASTIC!

Summary.

Last night I started my new job! Thats right Alex Prounis. You can suck it because I, indeed, got a job in spain.... so its at a bar that could only be compared to the beautiful authentic boston bar we all know and love... Our House. Ok so its a shitty little bar called El Duende. But still, I love it. Pumped. All my friends came and there is another american girl (ironically from Long Island as well) starting named Sarah so it wont be so bad.

Today was the first day that I wasn't dying in class due to lack of sleep... although i rarely get more than 5 hours of solid sleep... with the siesta, I think I'm really getting a good rhythm (the word I always use in hangman. No vowels. Love it.) down.

AND I didn't get lost on my way to and from class today!

Today I walked in the door a little earlier (because i usually get lost for an hour) than usual.. and Alejandra was blasting my new favorite spanish group El Barrio. Ahh que guapisimo! She taught me how to dance flamenco.. the sexy club kind.. not the "pure" kind, as she calls it.

Oh and then me, Abuela, Alejandra, her boyfriend Jose, and Gordita (my puppy) did a hat fashion show with all of my hats. I told them that hat fashion shows are kind of a custom of my own that im teaching them. Come on. We all know I love hats. These are some pictures. Nick... the hat you got me is Alejandra's fav. I told her she could borrow it. (I explained that these types of hats are best for fancy weddings and horseraces... she thinks americans are weird... when i think about it like that .. ha i think she kind of has a point)

Gotta go, lunch is being served. 1st course. Tomatoes with garlic and salt. In the US, I dont even like tomatoes or salt but here... i love everything I eat. For some reason... it tastes gourmet when I'm eating it in this gorgeous little city.

Me encanta.

Oh.. PS- my abuelita used to be a famous model here. But now she's 72 and she hates pictures... but I got one. Here they are... mis abuelitos favoritos! Shhhh.
