Esta Aqui!

Well I finally made here! After like 2 days of traveling & multiple delayed flights. Traveling can take a lot out of you - I think I had like 3 hours of sleep in 36 hours,and then there was the time change, so needless to say I was pretty exhausted. Rachel & I took a taxi from the airport to our houses, and the taxi driver was making fun of our accent. I thought that was funny because we were always taught Mexican spanish and here in Spain they almost have what sounds like a lisp. So he was trying to coach us to speak the way they do.
The taxi driver dropped me off on our street & rang the bell for me, so the door was unlocked. I walked into the lobby with all my bags and then I didn't know what to do. There were 7 floors & I knew I was in apartment 11, but I had no idea what floor that was on. So I stood there for awhile & luckily my housemate Amanda came down the stairs. She helped me with my bags and such. My house mom wasn't here because she works from 5-9.
When she came home she made dinner which was chicken, an egg & potato - french fry things. It was very good! This morning for breakfast she asked if I wanted milk, so I thought sure. Then she stuck it in the microwave. I wasn't thinking that it would be hot milk! Then she gave me some chocolate to mix in - so it was more like hot chocolate. That was better, but I guess I didn't know they don't drink cold milk like we do at home. She said I also could have orange, but I would have to use the machine to freshly squeeze it, so I guess I'll have to learn how to do that.
We had orientation this morning too, so I got to meet a bunch of people that are studying at the school. That was fun. Later today we have to sign contracts saying we wont speak English in the building! That'll definitely be an interesting experience.

Well that's all for now!
Adios. Kristin
