Schedules here are so CRAZY! Last year I wanted to eat at normal time, say noon, and I went to this little cafe cause I wanted pasta and bolognese sauce and when I ordered the waiter almost quicked me out and told me it was breakfast time!!! what the heck??? so yeah... that's how it goes here... :P and Spaniards are so darn skinny!!! HOW?????

Oh my gosh! In the summer a whole nation could be stinct if only the population in Madrid lift their arms! UGH!!!men, women, yound and old, you name it!!! This friend of mine I met through classes here taught in China for a year and she said deodorant there costs about $15!!!!!! O_o The worst part here is that deodorants and perfume are a huge thing here but obviously is not used :P

We do have the life my friend... we definitely do...

When i think about spending 3 months in Spain, I'm slightly worried about
65. Personal space = 0cm (god how I hate when people are too close to me!!)
36. You can take showers in a 2 ft box called a shower.
27. You have trouble speaking both English and Spanish. (why?)
21. You´re life span has been shortened 5 years because of the second hand smoke. (I'm not sure weather second hand smoking means that you don't smoke but you breath all the smoke that other smokers cause?)

55. You know the difference between tengo calor y estoy caliente.
what is the difference? i know tengo calor is i feel hot (in weather meaning). so maybe estoy caliente means hot like being horny?
