So what has been going on over the last week or so?...
Me and Sophia hit up a club last Tuesday. On the way there we got stopped by a promoter offering really cheap drinks.. so we had to oblige! So 5 tequila shots each and we carried on our merry way to the club. We paid €5 to get in with 4 or 5 shots included - great! It wasn't too busy inside but we enjoyed getting our dance on. There were mainly erasmus students there but we had a laugh. On the way home Sophia was insistent that we found some southern fried chicken! So we stopped somewhere to have a munch, but due to all the shots earlier, we couldn't remember if we had paid or not!! We tried to leave to see if they would stop us.. Turns out we hadn't paid so had to go back in... woopsie!!!
Hangover the next day was not fun, especially as I was going for lunch with my Spanish friend and his family at their house! Funnily enough my Spanish was pants on that day, obviously the alcohol was taking over my mind.. Haha.
Moving on.. My mum and my family booked their flights out to see me the end of this month. So I did some research on hotels. I decided to go to one of the hotels I had seen online and ask for a price directly. When I arrived there a coach load of people had also arrived so I decided to sit in a pretty little Plaza for 15mins or so, so that the queue for the reception would have died down. Whilst I was sat there minding my business some random guy comes up to me and asks me if we were in Plaza Gran Capitan. I replied that I didn't know but assumed so as Calle Gran Capitan was very close by. He replied quite sarcastically asking me if I couldn't speak Spanish.. I told him that I could but I was new to Granada and therefore didn't know the streets very well yet. This seemed to satisfy him and he proceeded to sit down next to me.. He told about his little corner shop and how long he had lived in Spain etc etc. He asked if I had a boyfriend and I told him yes. I hoped this would put him off... I did not encourage him at all as I could see where it was going. He continued by saying how beautiful I was and what a nice person... I was getting creeped out!
I told him I had to go and he wanted to know where! I said I was meeting a friend right now! He still tried to follow me down the hill and asked me out for a drink. I told him straight NO! He finally got the hint and walked away.. Scary! I made sure he was gone before I went into the hotel to ask about prices - turns out it was ridiculously more expensive than booking online!
University....
We are now in week 3 at UGR. Last week I continued to go to a sociology lesson that I was really keen on taking and the teacher continued to not turn up. I went to the secretary furious and demanded to know what was happening because I was wasting my time! He took me to another office and the man in there informed me that there actually wasn't a teacher for this class and they were looking for a substitute ahhhh!!!
This meant I had to pick another module because I cannot wait around forever and take the risk that they won't find a teacher and may cancel the course.
Luckily Italian fitted into my timetable so I emailed the teacher to ask if it was ok if I joined the class after missing the first 2 weeks. He replied saying it was fine, I just need to catch up.
This is the silver lining because I have wanted to study Italian for a while, so now I have my opportunity and after my first lesson I love it!! I even got up early this morning to do my homework... I know geek right?!!
Even more exciting my boyfriend arrives today to visit me :D. I now have someone I can drag around with me to see all the sights hehe.
For now I bid you all farewell as I have to leave to go to uni in 10mins!!
Ciaoooooo!!!
