Right now tehre is a beautiful pink sunset across half the sky and is still spreading, and the lights on the fountains have just turned on. Couples are on every bench cuddled, kissing, etc. Here people are not ashamed to be very touchy and kissy in public. Rather romantic. Makes me sad.
So, at the moment I'm beyond sick. I can't talk, I'm completely mute. Its very hard to be mute and try to get around in a city. People aren't very patient when you try to right a note to ask them something. The medication here is so different and I have yet to find something that helps. Luisa is convinced that eating an onion will help. Yea..not so sure on that one. In the mean time, I kinda want to cut a hole into my chest so that some air can actually get to my lungs instead of trying to force its way through my inflammed throat.
Ok, enough whining. Last night was great! Sooo weird though. One of those experience that... yea. Learned a new word too. :-)
I went hiking in the mountains yesterday and just sang praises to God cause it was soo beautiful. I have never seen a view like that in all my hikes or camping trips in the apalachain. It was overwhelming beauty. Chelsea and Katey stood me up so I went alone, but it was nice to be alone. I hiked for four hours and just enjoyed the peacefulness. Its amazing that these trails go out from behind my apartment!
I made friends last night!! Too bad they live in Madrid. We'll just have to go visit them some weekend.
I've been feeling at bit left out. Chelsea and Katey are so close and they live close together. They decide what they're going to do then call me and my opinion doesn't matter. I feel ganged up on a lot. But Patty has started hanging out with us which has been nice. SHe's in my immersion classes. Really sweet girl. So its nice to have someone I can hang out with when the other too start closing off.
I love it here though, being in Europe. It has an ancient beautiful that America lacks. And the people, they're ideas and culture are so different, so relaxed. I dunno, its a nice change of pace from being in the States.
