Happy Monday! Today has been very tiring for me, but that’s mostly because of the sore throat I’m battling. Everything else went fairly well today, and I can’t think of much out of the ordinary to write about. In Romanticism we talked about going to see the play Don Juan Tenorio at a local theater and made plans to buy tickets for that. I’m excited to see the play since we’re reading it in class, and it should be a cool experience. After class I went to the local convenience store for some cough drops and Corinne offered me some “throat soothing tea,” so hopefully we’ll see some more improvement in my throat as the week progresses.
I also went to Mision Nervana this afternoon, which was interesting. Because my voice was so worn out I could only talk quietly, and the kids responded extremely well to it…they all listened well and got lots of homework done. I think they’re finally settling into the routine there of getting things done before we can play games, and it was really helpful considering I wasn’t feeling very well.
I was really happy with the amount of homework I was able to get done on the bus/metro to and from Mision Nervana, and I’m grateful for the fact that my homework load has pretty much leveled off as of late. Things haven’t been too overwhelming, and the days are going by faster as I keep myself a little busier with Mision Nervana and my evening class. Rosa bought us Advent calendars, but since we’re not going to be here all the way until Christmas we’ve decided to eat the chocolates on the 24 days before we leave Spain. Not including the time we’ll be in Paris, we only have 22 days left of the semester! We’ve both therefore enjoyed 2 chocolate treats, and we’re having fun watching the number dwindle down while trying to live every day here to its fullest. :)
