Today our final exam and project in our conversation class were due. First off, my studying consisted of grabbing a beer from one of the casetas and sitting on the steps of the school studying my notes with some friends.Good thing the exam wasn't hard. Second, for our final project we included a wine tasting at 10 in the morning for the activity part of the presentation. Only in Spain. The other highlight of our presentation was one of the commercials we had to come up with. Claire and I have been having problems with our host madre feeding us too much and then getting upset when we tell her we don’t want seconds. Sooooo, we created a public service announcement about it and played “In the Arms of an Angel” (the SPCA sad puppy commercial song) in the background. This was the commercial that I presented and I literally started crying in the middle of speaking about it. It was actually because I was laughing and geeking so hard, but it was kind of legit. Im pretty sure I did well on both the exam and presentation but I won’t even know my grade until December because we will have an oral exam at the end of the semester. After the exam we sat on the lawn in front of the school and finished the rest of the bottle of wine we had used for our presentation. Not even a big deal since this week is still La Fiesta de Salamanca and they are selling drinks and food in the streets still. Have I mentioned that I love, love, love, love, love Spain?
Tomorrow we are going to Cantabria which is in northern Spain. Im excited to see more of Spain but not so excited to have to be at the bus at 6:45 a.m.
