Day 78: Last Day of School

Today i have to bring all of my stuff to the LBC office in Calle Doctor Cirajas. Sardines, a few clothes and booooooks. Like 20 of them haha. I was contemplating on putting the computer keyboard with the "send home" stuff but my dad told me to bing it with me because it might get crushed

I will try to make 2 3/4 months of life inside this



I also finished rolling almost all of my clothes


I had to get a taxi to transport my stuf because i will break my back if i use the metro.

I packed my stuff there and voila! I have to wait around 50 days. But no problem. I'm not very impatient.

I rushed back to the metro because i need to meet up with Julieta for our "despedida to each other lunch".

We ate at the usual, the Cafe Moderno also so i can say goodbye to Rodrigo the camarero and Virgel the Filipino cook.

Here's Julieta with our basket of potato chips


After lunch she had to rush home because her flight is at 18:00 back to France


Since i still had time, i took a few pictures of the road to school





I'm going to miss this place

Here's the door of my school.









The reception



The clock :)



I know i'm a dork :) haha! Here's my last class picture, but i'm missing Magda who went home because she's sick. And Elena the other Russian and Elise who went home



And i'm glad i saw Jose Luis too before leaving :)



I started to reminisce before going home. I took a picture of that cinema where i watched Piratas del Carribe with Induja



And San Bernardo Entrance of the Metro



Oh wait i almost forgot. Outfit of the day, the über comfy Bombachos. I love them even if they look a bit funny at times. It's so comfyyy


And then i went home to eat dinner with Mamá Eva. It was quiet with just the 2 of us but it's like bonding moment :)

After that i started doing my luggage again and then it's ¡Buenas Noches! To my beloved Madrid

Day 63: Reunion With My Spanish Teacher from Way Back

My main topic for today is my mini reunion with my Spanish teacher :)


This morning i stayed home to finish my homework and rest a little.

I left for school after eating lunch.



and ay ¡que rollo! (how boring). But i think it's not boring because of the teacher. It's because of the schedule and the lights which are bloody dim and the classroom itself.

Today's lesson was pretty confusing. I'm not gonna start writing about it here though :p

After class i met up with my teacher when i was still in Elementary i think or was it early highschool? I really think i was still in elementary..... Oh well :) not much difference. I did not grow much :)

She brought me to the teleférico and it was amazing!!!!!! It was a panoramic view of Madrid and it was a spectacular view. Too bad i only had my iphone with me and i could not really take much fotos because we were talking :)

After the first trip, we stayed for a few minutes in the cafeteria of the teleferico an i drank Horchata for the first time. It's a very typical drink from Valencia and i did not realize how good it was! It was realy delicious :)

On the way back i snapped a few paparazzi shots of my teacher :)





And the view in the cable car. View IN not FROM :)






And then we walked and talked and talked and walked :) hahaha! We walked along gran vía and chueca and she dropped me off at Bilbao, but before we said our goodbyes for the day, i snapped a picture con permiso (with permission) this time






In the evening i ate dinner with Alana and Mamá Eva served us her chicken which is the best of the best of her cooking so far :)












Well, that's about it for today :)

Day 62: Close Encounter with the Weird Kind - Exhibitionists

Exhibitionist: noun. A person who can't do anything with his/her miserable life and finds pleasure in showing off his/her reproductive organ/weapon to anyone.

As you read on you will find out why i wrote that :)

Anyway, this morning, Alana and i were supposed to visit "El Museo del Aire" or the "Air/Aeronautics Museum" of the Spanish Airforce.

I'm posting this picture because some people are asking me why i don't post pictures of the stuff i wear anymore. That's because sometimes i have to repeat clothes :)



We found out that It's either we take the Metro to Cuatro Vientos or we take a bus in Principe Pío to take a bus to that place. Although i had a gut feeling a bus would be better, we asked the guy who works in the Metro at Principe Pío and told us that it would be better if we take the metro to Cuatro Vientos. We did what he said. It was a looooong ride. There were even stations above the ground. It was odd to see natural light in the train. This picture was taken in Batán









We saw a supportndog for a blind person. He was so cute.
But it says in his back "no me toques por favor. Estoy trabajando" (don't touch me please. I am working)









And a sleeping lady with rainbow nailpolish :)









When we arrived there, it was really odd that when the elevator surfaced, we were already near the highway

Here's the photo of the metro elevator









Here's the highway






They said it was about a kilometer away from the metro so we started walking and someone told us we had to cross so we walked through the underpass






And then the other city cleaner guy told us that we had to cross back because we won't be able to go cross over to the museum so we have to go back where we came from.

We did and then we walked and walked and walked and realized our walking is futile so weturned back an decided to go back some other time but in a bus this time. Near the metro station, there was a guy in a car, who called us to ask for directions and then i said sorry we don't know the roads in that area. Then he asked us another question which we did not understand and then asked if Alana was a foreigner too and then i looked at Alana and when i looked back at the guy to answer, he suddenly flashed his male signature at us!! And we wanted to throw something at him. Alana wanted to throw a fruit at him but i told her it would be an insult to the fruit. So we just ran.

We rode the metro back but this time we stopped at San Bernardo so that we were near the school.

I brought Alana to the Cafe Moderno and i was surprised because Rodrigo. The "camarero" (waiter) already knew my name :)

Alana enjoyed her pizza and then came our problem of paying. Virgel, the Filipino chef did not want us to pay again and i don't like that. It's enbarassing because i had someone with me. But he really insisted and i could not argue anymore because we had to go to school already. And so i just gave up. Well, i guess that's another free lunch for us.

In school, i had 2 more chinese classmates who apparently went on vacation that's why they did not come to the first 2 days of class.

During the break, Maria Ozerova, my dearest Russian friend cane over to my class to give me a piece of Russian chocolate and i was really so happy to see her :) but before i could take a picture with her, my next teacher ame and so she left












After class, we walked to Sol because we were supposed to meet with Mamá Eva to go to this Mexican celbration. We saw the Capitol, the 7 floor discoteca on the way













We went for ice cream before meeting with her:








And then we also saw a dog with cats












Apparenty it's the birthday of Frida Kahlo :) pardon me for the weird angle of the picture











There were little Frida shrines and a slide show of her pictures











And then i asked Irina a grammar question and all of a sudden there was a debate between her and her mum












And then the next thing i know, the 3 or 4 ladies behind us were now involved as well












Well, i forgot how it ended but we went home and we were all sooooooo tired. So we decided to call it a day.

-- ¡Buenas Noches Madrid!



Day 59: Back to El Rastro

I love breakfast today!! Ofcourse we have the ever present galletas



.... And the buttercakes are back!!!



And a cold glass of "leche" (milk)



This morning we all went to El Rastro. Together :) Mamá Eva, Irina, Alana, Mara and me :)





We all went because Mara will be going to Salamanca this afternoon, and Alana won't be with us anymore next sunday. As i have mentioned before, El Rastro is a sunday market.

Apparently, everytime Mara is here, they all go to El Rastro to buy sunglasses to add to her collection



Some of the sunglasses reminded me of home becauae of the brand
"Rey Ben"


They have some of the coolest sunglasses









Haha! There's so much people today because of the foreigners that flocked in for the Orgullo Gay festival.



We even almost lost Mara :)

Alana and i staye behind when they all left to bring Mara to the train station. Alana had to buy a bag to replace hers because her books ripped her bag.

I bought A watch bracelet for my sister :)

We decided to go back home because it was hot as an oven.

I changed my bed sheets and pillow cases today. Yey!!






And then i studied the whole day until dinner and Mamá Eva served us quesadillas which was so good i had to ask for a little more



Well, that's about everything interesting that happened today :) not much actually, coz i had to make time for studying :p

So Buenas Noches Madrid!!
