Monday:
Again, my only real day of classes. The only thing that stood out to me on this day was that Hannah and I went to see "Sin Compromiso" (which is titled "No Strings Attached" in English), which was a pretty cute movie. Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman are pretty adorable together. I love going to movies in Spanish, except it is weird to hear other people's voices in place of the real actors' voices.
Tuesday:
Tapas Tuesday! I had so much fun this night. I realized how many people I actually know in Palma. At one point, I was in a group of about 20 people and wanted to talk to every single one of them. I love my friends here. Most people went home early, so 6 of us went to Shamrock (of course) and stayed out all night. I ended up at the beach for a little bit very early in the morning, which was fun. I want to see the sun rise on the beach one morning.
Wednesday:
I went to the beach for a bit today to work on my tan. A small group of us went to the Belgian beer bar for a few hours but didn't stay out too late.
Thursday:
I love Thursdays.. ladies' night! Everyone met at Aguabar as usual for free wine and cava. We all went to a club on Paseo after that to dance all night. Fun fun fun.
Friday:
I slept in, of course. (As my social life increases, my blogs get less interesting, because I spend half of my days sleeping.) I went over to a friend's to watch a movie and hang out before going out later. A few of us went out to a new place I had never been before. We had drinks out of a glass container that resembled a neti pot.. lovely. I went home pretty early, because I was kind of bored.
Saturday:
I met pretty much everyone I know at a beach in the German part of Palma. We hung out all day until the sun set and it got chilly. It was pretty cloudy all day, which was no good. At one point, Amit and another girl decided to go swimming in the freezing water. They did handstands in the water, and Amit failed. After that, we played different sports using an empty 1 liter bottle and these seed ball things that were all over the beach. Later that night, some of us went to a friend's apartment to watch a Barca vs. Madrid football/soccer game. Again, I didn't stay out very late, but still had fun with new friends!
Sunday:
Pretty sure I slept most of the day. We went to the bar for Belgian beers, of course. This was probably one of the most fun nights I have had so far. We started as a small group, and Brittany and I were super giggly even before drinking beer. As the group grew, so did the giggles and hilarity. At one point, some people were using a magazine to make origami things. Someone made a paper airplane so of course we threw it at each other for a while until it got destroyed. I don't remember any specifics other than discussing beer pong and some weird stuff in Brittany's beer, but it was such a fun night. Here's one of the quotes I remember by a person who (probably) wishes to remain anonymous, "I just had 3 beers with 11% alcohol each. so my body is 33% alcohol right now!!" Needless to say, I laughed so hard all night long. It was such a wonderful evening with friends.
Monday:
Classes, blah. After class, Amit and I played beer pong with the two Belgians. It was more of a practice run for our future tournament among countries, and it sure was fun (even though we lost.) Amit and I had to teach them how to play, and they ended up beating us anyway. I blame myself, because as you probably know if you know me at all, I am a complete failure at anything remotely athletic, even throwing a ping pong ball into a cup. I was the ongoing joke of the night due to my complete lack of hand-eye coordination. We had fun listening to music and talking and playing all night. It was definitely the most fun Monday night I have had thus far. I didn't get home until 3am, porque no?
