excitement excitement

what a day! so much happened even though i only left the house once to go to class. by the way i think that's the first time i didn't leave the house for anything else! you want to know what i learned today? the word in Spanish for "stepfather" is the same as the word for "hangnail." it's - "padrastro." fun fact of the day

so i went to my last Emotional Intelligence class tonight and the teacher gave us our final grades. the grades here are out of 10 and i was talking with some girls who said nobody ever gets 10s because that just means your perfect and it just doesn't happen. so i was sitting there fidgeting waiting for her to call me up and explain my grade while i pretend like i understand.

she calls me up and is so nice to me, i really like this lady haha. she said i got an 8.5!!! i was excited! i think that's good! she said my final work, that 10-page paper, was superb, and she was so impressed. she told me she can tell there are "two different Lisa's." atleast i think that's what she said. i think she means outside of the classroom. because i never talk in that class. and then she said something about how i should look into theater classes??? i don't even know! i swear that's what she was talking about. and she was just saying how i have so much potential and i am so brave and i will really go far. she really made me feel good!

so i was excited and walking out to the metro and i'm crossing the street, while i have the green light, and all of the sudden this car comes racing around me, like i don't even know how it didn't hit me. it was the scariest thing of my life. and i was the only one in the street. and he just kept barreling past down the wrong side of the road, and then swerved past another car. i really don't know what was going on, and there was no one chasing after him, so it was scary. i just got to the other side of the street and stopped for a minute in shock. i hope he gets caught.

last exciting thing of the day, although it's only 10pm so who knows what could happen ;D i got my ticket to Sevilla!!!!!!!! i'm so excited! i'm going with this girl Diana from UCF, and we're gonna ask the other two UCF girls to come with us. it's in less than two weeks! we're staying for two nights, right before second semester starts. i've heard so so so many good things about this place, so i can't wait to see it. and i hear it has the third biggest cathedral in the world! so that will be cool to see.

i went out with the UCF girls last night to Roxy and we had a blast. i really think i'm going to spend a lot of time with them this semester and i hope i do because they are really a lot of fun! i think it kind of makes sense because anyone who does this experience has kind of the same mindset. like we all want to see everything and are laid-back and just want to have fun.
so cheers to that!


here is a picture of the new girls in case your curious, even though i look like a freak :)
