Yes, I know, I didn’t update yesterday since I was tired and stressed because I have so much to do for uni it’s not even funny. So last night I spent some time on msn looking like a zombie and finally went to bed early (at midnight, yes, that’s very early for me).

I just don’t feel like updating this right now since all I have to tell you about my life is uni-related, which is boring and depresses me.

Thank God it’s Friday already! xD

And this weekend I kind of have two different options to have two really different weekends, but apparently I can’t control that so I’ll tell you about this on Monday haha.

I really feel like doing some online shopping right now since the thought of getting ready to go to campus after having learned this few letters in Arabic and done this stupid, stupid assignment for French makes me want to run away U_U

Oh, Christ, I do need some fun!

Ok, I’m off now! But don’t forget to check this out first.

xD

Bye

It’s Wednesday – And it’s October.

Today was a strange day. I woke up early but had the worst headache and couldn’t pluck up the power of will to get up. So I stayed in bed for too long. Then I spent a looong time deciding what I would have for lunch, and then I wanted to go the Japanese Embassy to hand in some forms but I realized it was too late because they close for lunch. So I took my lunch in a container and I went to our dearly beloved campus. And I was late, too. Then I saw both of you girls sitting there and my day started to make a little sense finally xD.

But we had to go to class eventually, and I got out of the classroom in the evening with 2 more oral expositions assigned. So let’s party! I’m so doomed this semester. My creativity is to be sucked out of me by stupid 5, 15, or 60 minute-long speeches in Spanish, English and German. Seriously, can Edward Cullen come now and fucking do his job? Yeah, I’m kidding. I can do this, there’s no need to become a soul-less creature of the night forever just because I’m stressed out.

A hug for each of you! Hope we can have lunch together again soon!

That’s true, cause yesterday I saw you girls as good University students as you both are! It was amazing, I saw you both again a week later and then I saw lots of familiar faces. Last time I saw most of them was about 4 months ago! Though I saw some of them a month ago, it was such a long time! And that was really nice. I had a great time, seriously.

We ate at this Telepi cafeteria, and I got into this English class with this cool American guy!

That was great!

 

Now I’m bored at the University library and I forgot to update yesterday, because I spent the night watching Grey’s Anatomy, even though, in the end, I could not see it till the end because of my mother, who could not help yelling at my sister and me ordering us to go to sleep due to those “not-decent” hours. Anyway! I missed those times of watching Grey’s Anatomy.

 

There’s this annoying noise beeping in my ears and I don’t have any fucking idea of where it comes from! It’s driving me crazy! Why is it said, “Keep quiet, please. It’s a library”, and then, this noise is beeping!

 

By the way, I still cannot get online in the campus, so I’m writing this in my computer first to update tonight or this afternoon, so don’t get surprised if something about I talked before do not matches. ^^

 

Have lots of fun girls!!!!

See you both in about an hour and a half!

 

So…I’m right back from my tour round the University, and I’ve just been with you both. That was funny… Our conversations with this stupid bee flying around us and Kris taking this disgusting paper with dots of cheese, and Lucía living her déjàvus… That was cool.

So, yeah, thank you girls for being there today!!;)

Talk to you later! Now I’m doing stupid things about this numerous family thing… Dunno how it’ll go.

See ya!!

Xoxo

 

PS Lucía, please remind me to give you your pen back, cause I always forget and I remember when I see it in my pencil-case!!! Or whatever it’s called!!T_T

 

 

 

 

This weekend I’ve spent my time up in Limerick, Ireland.

It wasn’t the best time since it’s cold and we hadn’t much money to live from. Just some tea and bread to eat (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and the Shannon river made everything humid and uncomfortable. I feel like I may have a little pneumonia. I’ll go to the doctor’s here in NYC, where I came two days ago in a boat that was supposed to take us to Manhattan, then it changed its route to Montreal and it finally left us in Albany, a town in upstate New York. I’ve heard you can get everything here in America even if you’re the most stupid omadhaun that Ireland has ever seen being born.

Then I left America to go to Berlin. That war looks bad, let me tell you. And these weird kids and their parents at the farm were all wearing pajamas. But it’s ok because I’m the best explorer ever since I’ve found a Jew that’s genuinely good. My teacher, who is always giving us boring books about the greatness of Germany and its glorious race, will be impressed and stop looking at me so bitterly. He said I’d be the best explorer ever if I ever found one good Jew.

Now I’m spending my time with a gorgeous vampire. His skin feels cold and hard like stone but the tenderness in his eyes could melt the snow. If you don’t mind, I’ll go swing in his arms now. It’s dark outside and he makes me sleep fast when he holds me tight and makes me feel like the luckiest thing in the world. Plus, he smells like the sweetest candy.

Night night, girls. I hope you had as many adventures as I did this weekend

Ill give you the bad ones first since, if you have checked your in box, you already know this: I have a terrible cold. The flu, actually. At least I think its the flu but I cant be sure because I’m not a doctor after all. In any case, it is a stupid virus. I don’t usually feel this sick when i get a common cold so if it is a cold, then its the worst cold Ive ever had. It sucks.

And now the good news and this is going to be a surprise. I have sent an application form to the UNED to be enrolled for a degree in English Philology. I expect that my Translation and Interpreting classes will keep me quite busy, but still i hope I can find some extra time to start taking a major in English Philology, too. Ill take it easy, maybe three subjects a year or so, depending on how difficult it is.

It might not be of much help for my future profession, I don’t know. But I do know that I want to do this and that I would like to see translation from a different perspective and, most of all, Id love to study English literature. Its not really about improving my chances but about learning something I’m really interested in. If I don’t do it now, Ill probably never do it.

So there. I’m really excited.

Talk to you soon, girls! You both are awesome!

But I went to see nobody T_T I wanted to see anybody I know, but I couldn’t cause I went too early.

I went there just to pretend that I was going to College, as my parents think that I’m still going to College, and I went to see these books about this course I’m taking. Boring, definately, boring.

I missed these long evenings at College with my mates and friends and going to our tiny cafeteria. That was cool. But today I saw that this tiny cafeteria has been closed and that the cafeteria which was being reformed last year is a super-modern and “chic” cafeteria. Anyway! Everything changed, the trains, the trains’ lines, the train station, the small shop from the station where Tony used to buy his beloved cinnamon gums, the cafeteria… What happened!? Plus, I’m not going to College anymore. I would like to be studying as a university student, but I am not, and that makes me feel really sad. But that’s not the point, cause I do not like any career. I haven’t find out any that I like yet, so when I find it, I’ll think by that time if I wanna do it or not.

Anyway, today I met “my” american, who was very very nice. We spoke in Spanish as she said that she really wanted to improve her Spanish, so I didn’t care about not speaking in English.

What about you both, girls??

Have a great weekend!

xoxo

So yesterday was our (Lucía’s and mine) first day… Crap.

I didn’t feel like going back to college at all and I knew something was going to be wrong at some point. I wish I was wrong more often.

I pretty much panicked when I didn’t know where my first period was taking place and then I realized it could be in two different classrooms and then one of them DID NOT EXIST. “Classroom 104″ Yeah, great, the only problem is there’s classroom 101, 102, 103 and 105. Thanks for that, stupid uni people. You made me feel anxious after some weeks of good life.
It turns out I didn’t have that subject yesterday, so it was all my fault. But the classroom doesn’t exist anyways… -_-

So yeah, after calling some friends to rant about it I met up with Lucía and two other friends to have lunch and whatnot. I saw everybody again -nice people

The Translation subjects made my day. I was soooo happy listening to my brand new American teacher! Haha First native teacher in two years! Score! And then the last subject was pretty cool as well. It’s called “British Civilization” and they made me go with this English teacher that really left a good impression on me but they separated me from my buddies Stupid people overcrowding classrooms! I hate you! And I hate the fact that they didn’t ask if we wanted to go with the other teachers. We were forced to do it. Just like in high school.
So I’m convincing Lucía that it’s so much better to have an English teacher to talk about British civilization than an American one -well, I already convinced her. And hopefully they’ll let them be in my classroom ^^

And now I’m off to have a shower and listen to some music before I leave

Have a good day!

So bye, bye miss holidays. I want to pull my hair out and stamp my foot and pout and cry for one more week of not having to go to class. But there’s nothing I can do about it, unfortunately. Today is the day when I have to come to terms with the fact that I am still a university student because I’ve chosen to study translation. So if it was my own choice, how come I’m not jumping happily, excited at the thought of learning more? Good question. No answer.

Anyways, I got a shipment from Amazon this morning which I wasn’t expecting yet and I was looking happier than a little kid on Christmas day as I opened it. I love Amazon. They always take me by surprise. So I’m listening to the one I’ve decided will be my album of the week (aka a suggestion from me to you if you’ve never listened to it before): One From The Heart o.s.t.

The major event of my day was lunch with my new American. Okay, this might need some explaining: when I talk of “My American” I am referring to the NYU student I was assigned as my language exchange partner. I had an American exchange partner last spring, and we all called our partners “My American” or “Your American”. So my new exchange partner is my New American. We had Indian food at Luli’s favorite place and she loved it, too. She’s quite nice and we had an interesting conversation about the USA and politics. She’s pro Obama so we’re going to get along. .

I forgot to take the results of my blood analysis with me so I couldn’t go to the doctor yet. According to those analysis, I have a couple of minor problems due to my vegetarian diet, which means the doctor will tell me off and (hopefully) make a list of what vegetables I have to eat more of. I’m not planning on going back to non-vegetarianism. My parents cooked fish last night (as in, the entire fish) and it was traumatizing to see them lying dead on the tray (the fish, not my parents) xD.

No more news here.

Cris, I’ll see you tomorrow when our lives are taken over by university again.

Luli I hope we can arrange to meet up again soon!

Hugs for both of you!

So, today was a really awful day…

I’m pretty tired so I’ll just write the link so that you can read it in my blog, where I already wrote a post about it.

Have fun you both!!!:D

Hey, so yesterday was Monday and I had a bit of a weird day.

At 4 a.m I was reading on my bed since I couldn’t sleep so I started Angela’s Ashes and I couldn’t put it down. And suddenly the sky went completely crazy and it rained and rained and rained until there was a river in my street. Perfect. I finally turned the lights off but I was still insomniac so I just heard the violent rain hitting everything and the thunders over my head -scary shit, I’m telling you. And then the worst thunder appeared and… that was it. No lights in my whole town.

When I woke up (11 a.m.; I have fucked up sleep patterns but you know that already) they were talking about how bad the rain was in my town and a woman died… I’m glad I live in a building xD

So yeah, in the afternoon I did something productive and went watch Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Woody Allen’s latest film. That was interesting. I’ve got the feeling that it’s a movie for -American- rich tourists and that it’s a thousand times better in the original version (why the fuck did they have the need to add different voices to Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz?! As long as I know, they can speak their own language!). But I loved the whole idea and the script. It’s just so Woody Allen! Haha Oh and Penélope Cruz shines over the rest of her colleagues in this one… I was impressed!

Ok, I have to go now or I’ll be late.

Have fun you two! Bye
