Jubulent

Well, it´s my last weekend in grenada and i´m a visitin my friend Joel who is also a langauge auxillary(sp?). Right now we´re in his school and i think i´m really going to miss my spanish ninos. They´re so cute and seem to really like me. Well. I mean, i don´t grade them or anything--but do you know that it´s illegal for elementary-middle school students to be assigned homework? No wonder they don´t learn anything! AH well, that won´t be my problem past next tuesday...

In other news, i got proposed to by my uh morrocan ´friend´. His name is mohammed and we had a rather awkward phase back in november when he insisted on following me around, even if that meant from one end of the grocery store to the other...and i was a bit FREAKED out. But then i didn´t run into him for two months and all was well. YEsterday i saw him again at the grocery store, fine, he bought his groceries and left. Then, i saw him at the bus station while waiting to hitch a ride to grenada and he kept asking if i would be his novia(girlfriend) and, let me say his spanish is not great, so i tried to explain that i was leaving spain. Para siempre(for ever) that im going back to chicago(mini lie) and after saying this 8 times, he´s like...you´re not spanish? NO! And then he´s like, ok, i go with you. And i stare at him. He´s says again, ¨i go with you. You want to get married? Let´s get married. I´m in love with you.¨

Stop.

To which i say, no, it´s impossible. You can´t come with me. And he´s like why? WHY. why? Luckily the bus came and that was that(after i had to take my bag back from him because he tried to carry it to the bus for me...ay. Que disastre.

But other than that...i´m really enjoying my last month in spain--probably because i know im leaving and therefore the normal air of desperation had been lifted. I see a way out! Rebecca is going to visit in ire in early march, we´re goin to copenhagen! And then..i don´t know. I´m forcasting a May return to chicago...but we´ll see.

I´d like the scrambled eggs with a side of stability, please?
