Next weekend is the big weekend of Carnaval. Hannah, Meghan, Rocio (my roommate) and myself are going to stay with our friend Matt and hopefully have a blast. The streets are supposed to be just ridiculously packed with people all dressed up in group costumes. We've decided to bring an idea we've seen in the US to Spain. We are going to go as Facebook pages, a few of us at least. If you have not seen this, you need to do a Google image search and educate yourself. I think it's pretty brilliant and should be a lot of fun since we are going to have a blank wall and allow people to write on it. Ha, we may have to censor the pictures depending on what people write.
This weekend Matt and Amy are coming from Cadiz and Puerto de Santa Maria (a.k.a. Little Guantanamo) to visit us. It's always a good time to see these two. Matt usually stays with me and Amy with the girls, B v G. Stupid jokes aside, it should be good since we usually cook, hang out and just do whatever. I'm up for a weekend like that after an extremely planned last couple of months...or at least it feels like that.
I'm feeling more musical these days and am going to start playing my friend Lolo's guitar a bit more often, and maybe the one in the school when I have the chance on breaks. I need some kind of outlet in this sense. My outlet has been searching and listening to new music. I have to say lately I'm really liking Apparat, Modeselektor, Moderat, Jonsi, Ratatat and Andrew Bird. A bit more on the tranquil side, but that is what the mood calls for.
Oh, and bonus! Uncle Sam is going to be returning me enough money to buy my new airplane ticket home! Too bad I wanted to buy meaningless crap with it to stimulate the economy...of Spain!
Alright, I'm going to go prepare a lesson. Here is a video that I can enjoy any time of the day and in whatever odd mood I may be in.
