First of all, have I mentioned how this past week and weekend it has been over 100 degrees? Yeah, when we took our bikeride.... definitely about 102 in the sun. But it didn´t feel that hot since there was a breeze. So my lesson yesterday went really well. The students really got into the lesson and had a good time and they learned a ton of new words. They really liked my activities and everything. So that was good. For my course we are doing more grammar now.... it´s going okay since I´m pretty decent with it already (thankfully...) Last night after the course three of the other students from the course and I went out to eat. I took them to Coloniales (the BEST place for tapas in Sevilla). They all loooooved the food. We had a really great time, it was good to relax (not like i didn´t relax all weekend.... but hey it´s spain). Turns out the others are all 25 and 26... they all thought I was 25 or 26 too... ha. When I told them I was 22 they were shocked. They didn´t believe I was that young.
Oh, little adventure last night too. I visited Jose and Ismael at the river and I was planning on getting the last bus to take me home since from the river its a solid 40 mins walking. Well I get on the bus and put in my bus card and then the grumpy old bus driver says that the last stop is at the Prado (aka still 35 mins from my apartment). So I ask him why he didn´t say that before I put in my card because I would´ve not lost a trip since it was only two stops away that we were going. And I asked him why he was stopping there since he was supposed to do an entire loop. blah blah blah i get off at the Prado. Luckily this nice old man was talking to me and telling me what I could do to get to where I live. So he accompanied me onto another bus and then again to another bus all just so I could get to a bus stop that was 5 mins away from my apartment. That was really nice of him and he paid for my bus fares. We were talking spanish the whole time and it went really well and he actually wants me to help him with his english because he knows the words but not how to say them.. noly write them. So we exchanged numbers and we are going to get together in a cafe sometime to chat in English so he can practice.
I got home 50 mins after I hopped on the first bus........
