Estoy llena!!

I am full, estoy llena. I think I say this at every single meal. Our Madre makes way to much food and she expects us to eat it all. Her fifty year old daughter does not even eat the food the madre makes because it is so fattening. That’s my rant of the day and I am sure I will rant more about this.

Today we took a tiny tour of the city. We some the historic buildings, but the tour was manly to places we need to get to, like the mail, the doctors, the JMU office. The JMU office is so nice inside. There are couches, computers and thankgod Wi-Fi. I wish all the host families had Wi-Fi. Some people in our group lucked out and have it, but most like our house does not have internet. Luckily, there is an internet café right down the street, maybe like two minute walk. Yesterday I made my first purchase in Salamanca. I forgot toothpaste, so I bought some at una farmacia. The pharmacy is so expensive. I paid 4 Euro for a small tube and then we went to a grocery store and saw American toothpaste for 2 Euro. I was so mad, but the worst part was the toothpaste I bought tastes like licorice. I hate licorice. I also forgot a lufa, so I bought one of those at Saphora. Sometimes I wish there was a Walmart right down the street. I know that sounds horribly American, but its so much more convenient than going to a million different stores looking for one thing. I did have one exciting purchase. I bought a really cute pair of boots. Everyone in Spain wears boots with their jeans tucked in. There are millions of stores that a sell boots in all shapes and colors. I have seen some pretty crazy ones like bright orange ones with bows. Mine are a pretty basic brown pair with a buck on the back. Last night we went to a dance club/bar. It was a lot of fun to dance with everyone in the group. We also went to bar where you could 10 shots for 5 euro, that’s a pretty intense deal. I avoided 10 but did try a limon shot. Era delicioso!!
