The Homestretch

Looking at my journal this week was not really interesting and I have to study for my Patho/Pharm test that is tomorrow so this will be another quick post.

           Tuesday for literature class my roommate and I had to cook a meal(Arroz a Banda) from the book that we were reading, Los mares del Sur. Our senora wasn’t opposed to us using the kitchen but she did a lot of the cooking, mainly since we did not know how to cook fish or shrimp and we didn’t want to get people sick. The presentations were good, our Professor invited the senoras to class, and my senora had to be the cutest out of the group- she reminds me of Dora the Explorer. Wednesday I had clinicals and they were a little less exciting since I haven’t really been sleeping and I was just so tired. I ended up taking a nap that afternoon, because I was so exhausted.

           Thursday I had my presentation for my art project. The paper is basically finished I just have to reread through it. Also I had my literature test on Los mares del Sur. Let’s just say it went better than last test but I got lost on the vocabulary.

           Friday, I had lunch with people from my group at Bo de B. It is a sandwich place by the beach and it was pretty tasty. I would have never thought to put rice in a sandwich but it was so good. You may be thinking I have to get rice, no you don’t but it was an option, and a good one at that! Then to celebrate our last full weekend in Barcelona we went to a bar, and they had free popcorn!

           Saturday I didn’t do much besides study for my patho test. I went to lunch with some people in my group but that was basically it. Sunday was super sad. It was my last time going to church. They had a pancake lunch for family that is moving and the put me on stage too to say good bye. They have really made this experience so much better. I got to know local people and they helped me so much with my Spanish. I have a lot of good memories with them.

Okay now patho! Last week in Barcelona.
