I shouldn't have joked about the jamon....

HOLA HOLA HOLA!

Hecho de menos vosotros!!!

Well my time in Spain is nearing an end with only 5 nights left. I have mixed feeling of being very very excited but very sad as well. We have really just spent the last week relaxing and going to the beach. Tuesday however, I went to see Harry Potter in English. Ah how sad that it is over. I feel like my childhood is officially gone forever :( Friday night we went out to enjoy our last weekend in Malaga. I sure can't wait for bars to close at 2AM again. 4AM is much too late! Saturday, I went to Nerja with a few friends. It is so beautiful and I am convinced that when I am super rich, haha, I will have a summer house there :)
We are suppose to be death eaters...

Urbanos: Home of the 1 euro shot. Our favorite bar!

Paella in Nerja


Other than that, I have just been studying for my final test on Friday and getting my suitcases packed. I have no idea how I am possibly going to get everything back to the states.... I may have to sacrifice some shoes at this point! But I am very excited to get home and see Dean and the new apartment he has picked out. We may also try to make our way down to Cheyenne although I don't know where we will be staying as my parents never talk to me! I mean, whats the point of Facebook and Skype if you don't use it?

Well I will end by tell you of the 10 things I will miss about Malaga!

10. The food! Some of it I love, some of it I don't. But I think every country needs Tapas.

9. Walking everywhere. Can't say it hasn't been good exercise.
8. La Montana! Ha, it may have caused us a lot of problems but it has always been interesting.

7. Public transportation. Waiting for the N1 bus sucks but at least it is usually after a long night at Urbanos...
6. The weather. Warm everyday with much less humidity than NE.
5. All the people I have met, both locals and other students.
4. The night life. So maybe I miss going to bed before 5AM but it has definitely been a fun experience.

3. Spanish! It has been so frustrating at times but I have learned so much. I will miss all the practice I get.
2. The beach. I am going to miss that 5 minute walk!

1. My Senora. Don't know what we would have done without our mom!


And of course, a few fun facts:

1. People often live with their parents until they are 30, if not older. They don't get married young and the unemployment rate for young people is quite harsh. So it isn't looked down upon to stay in the house into your 30's.
2. A popular food in Spain is Jamon. Which is literally a pig leg that has been soaked in salt for a VERY long time. They then cut it off in slices and it tastes like bacon jerky. No me gusta.
3. The time difference between here and NE is 7 hours. So while it is 12:10 in the AM here, it is only 5:10 PM there. In WY, it is 4:10.
