Nothing Exciting...yet!

Hi,

just a quick update...nothing exciting has been happenin' here the last few days. Just the normal days. It's getting a bit cooler now, which is kinda of nice. Granada, we have realized, has very distinct temperatures from morning to day and to night. It can get very cold during the mornings and at night, and still be very hott during the day...its quite confusing. I've been moving my classes around a little. I've dropped my "experiencia del otro" and I am hopefully adding this film class called "Images of Women in Mediterranean Film", yes it is in English....which I was trying to avoid, but I think I might need a break. At the same time I want to really learn Spanish and I am worried that with having an American roommate, and having a class in English that I really won't learn as much Spanish as I would have hoped. I was going to take a class at the university of granada, but I psyched myself out and I don't think I am going to anymore. We do have this thing though, starting soon, called "intercambios" and it is when we get paired up with a Spanish student and they are just like conversation buddies. So I really want to take advantage of this and hopefully make up for my lack of Spanish use while at home.

Ok well, we leave for Marruecos (Morocco) on THURSDAY morning! I probably won't write anything until afterwards so its gonna be a while. But I am sure I will have LOTS to say when I get back. I've bought more ear plugs and baby wipes for the trip, and I am planning on stealing toilet paper from my Senora! Wish me luck!!

Love
Kate
