"is that africa?"

long time no see. sorry, my life's been boring here in madrid. WELL last weekend, we went down to the south of spain to cádiz, a city on the southwest coast, where there was Carnaval (the third largest in the world). It's basically a giant halloween. so much fun. i was a fairy (hence the wings), that eventually ended up being crumpled in a ball by the end of the night, sadly. there were thousands of people in so many crazy costumes (firefighters, popes, hockey players, more inappropriate costumes haha). the 9-10 hour drive each way was not the best, but the leaders of the trip played weird british movies, which were hilarious.

also, the countryside of southern spain is GORGEOUS. like picturesque rolling hills and animals grazing and you get the jist.

and todayyy we found out that there's this AMAZINGGGG restaurant right near school. it's called cervecería 100 montaditos and it's a chain in spain (they actually have one in miami!) and they have like 1 euro sandwiches of all different types, which are unreal. one of mine today was shrimp and pineapple and some sauce. um so good. i'll be going every single day for lunch. mom and dad...we're going there when you're here. you don't have a choice.

that's it for now. i'm not sure if i'll have any posts anytime soon. i'm here in madrid this weekend (hopefully a daytrip somewhere) and then next weekend mis amigas from florence are coming!!!! so so excited.

and i'm drowning in midterms. at least they're over on wednesday...kill me.
