#4

Today is Thursday and the weekend is almost here. My classes are getting a little bit better daily. However, my home situation is an entirely different issue. I am trying to communicate that I receive free laundry service, but I am not successful because she wants to charge me 11€. Hopefully, that will be addresses as well as the other concerns. I have faith that it all will work out soon. Some people in my group will be on excursions this weekend. Some of them are already completely booked. Thus far, the tutoring sessions have been extremely helpful for me. I know everyone is at a different level, but it helps to grasp the concept with their explanations. I enjoy talking walks around the city after dinner when it has cooled down a lot. Regardless of the time people still continue to stare.

My classmates are from Turkey, Canada, Holland and the U.S. I´m very grateful that the chancellor decided include the CCC´s in these study programs. I don´t think I have been exposed to so many different cultures in my life. My Lexico teacher had us playing BINGO to practice saying the numbers. I did not win. We reviewed relationship in Prof. Merce class and more numbers in lab. 5 hours is a long time to have class straight without a break. Some of the other programs are 3 or 4 hours which seems better because you are not burnt out so much, and also have enough time to make it home for lunch at 2 pm. My host mom seems slightly agitated that we all don´t eat together. My class ends between 2:15 and 2:30. I went to the library directly after lunch to get more work done.

Después la cena, el Iris y yo decidieron salir y comer. La cena fue un plato de arroz y de nosotros ambos fueron todavía hambrientos. Paramos en un lugar cerca de la casa y entonces fuimos al Plaza Mayor. Es muy hermoso de noche. Miré el altun canta y después anduvimos alrededor de más. Fui feliz de estar saliendo la casa. Gocé el aire fresco. Permanezco generalmente en mi cuarto gran parte del tiempo porque ella fuma en el espacio anterior donde la televisión es. Una vez, yo llegué en casa yo escribí en mi diario y fui a ser. Es el viernes ahora y el fin de semana está aquí. Yo lo hice.
