PRAISES!

ok ok, great news!!!
Yesterday I came home from school, and there, sitting in my room was my long awaited MALETA!(suitcase!) It was battered and bruised, but it was here, and I was so happy! I kissed mi mama Española on the cheek and could not take a siesta because I was so happy, she was SO happy too, she called all of her friends to tell them. (we are good friends,ella es muy preciosa) Now here is where it gets good... Last night, Andrew the best hubby ever, prayed that I would get mi maleta ASAP, and the next day there it was. At school the next day I eagerly waited for my friends who weremissing theirs so that we could be excited about our returned bags together, but no one else recieved their belongings. In fact, one girl said that when she called the airport, they told her that there were NO deliveries to Valladolid the day that mine came! Its a miracle, and one of the best miracles! I washed my hair with shampoo and brushed it, and wore pajamas last night, and wore clean clothes, and put on deodorant, I feel like a million bucks! Keep my friends without maletas in your prayers becuase they are getting very very sad.

As soon as I leave my house in the morning to get to school I walk through a HUGE beautiful park full of trees, beautiful fountains, a river, benches and birds. The most bird most commonly seen and heard in the park is the proud male peacock, who roam where they please throughout the park. At times they sing, which sounds more like yelling,¨"EEEH-YA!¨"
Today I saw for the first time uno que era plumado, or with his tail up and furled, quite a site. He was about 7 times his size with his fan like tail. I think he was showing off for me.
This weekend I go to Segovia with some friends, as well as Madrid.

Life in Spain looks like this. Wake up in the morning,go to school or work, come home for a HUGE lunch at two and then it´s time for siesta, or nap. Everyone does it and all the shops, banks, everything closes. After that, at around 6pm everyone goes outside in the streets, dressed very nice and goes on a walk throughout the city. It is very fun and there is a great ambiance. The sun goes down around 9pm, then dinner at 10pm. Some then chose to go out to Bars, etc. and others chose to wind down for bed.

Adios ahorita, pero escribere muy pronto. He escuchado de muchas de las familias de mis amigoas, y tengo mucha suerte como mi Visey!
