Michelle Takes on España!: Week Seven: Brrrr!

Hello everyone!
Okay so first I must say that wow time is really flying by here. I can't believe I am already half way through October and in exactly two months from today I'll be back in the United States for a few days!
Let me think, this week was a pretty good week. Teaching my classes and my students is going well, school at Suffolk is going great minus the fact that we have midterms these next two weeks, and my living situation is wonderful! During the week nothing really eventful happened however, Thursday night was awesome. Lisa and I decided we wanted to go out Thursday and maybe venture to a club, but then when we were sitting in our last class until 7:15 we had the brilliant idea of going to TGI Friday's instead. Best choice we've made. So we enjoyed dinner together then came back to our room and slept so we could get up early and do homework all day. Yes, Friday we did homework the entire day and then Friday night we let the fun begin!
I'm sure you all know what an ice bar is, well they have one in Madrid so a group of girls from API ventured there Friday night. it was fun, don't get me wrong, but it was very cold so we only stayed for maybe a half hour. But it was an experience not many people can say they had so I'm glad I went. After that Lisa and I called it a night and the other girls headed to a club.

Me!

We had to take a picture with him!

Saturday Lisa, myself and a girl in our program, Rose, went to the Royal Palace only to find that there was an event so no tours were taking place, such a disappointment. But not to worry we still took stunning pictures from the outside of Palace. After that we met up with Dani and went to our favorite spot ever, El Tigre. We enjoyed good conversation, tapas and even got free hats...probably because we're such frequent goers. Sunday was uneventful as we did homework and went for a run.
