learning

Between waiting hours and hours for a computer rendering to finish, waiting for the wax in the mold to dry, waiting an extra 3 minutes for the next metro or waiting for a very delayed flight to get here, patience is the only way to deal. I think it's harder for our generation too because we are so used to having everything be instant. But getting frustrated angry or upset won't help the situation one bit, so be patient, the time will come.

I am going to try to post one thing I learn each day. I realized that I have learned a lot of things but it's hard to keep track so I am going to try to post something each day, we'll see how it goes!

project in progress

if you can't tell i fell in love with the jars yogurt comes in

I'm doing my last project for my design class on them, I'll post more when I'm done this is just a sneak peak! haha

snow?

So this is yesterday:

creepy picture of me haha but look at the snow chunks!

then it rained

It's crazy because a week ago in my last post I was just saying how warm it had been I was even in a t shirt at the beach!! pssh I don't understand especially because this is today:

and a yummy breakfast!

So this is my last week of classes for the first trimester! Lots of work and not so much play but its almost spring break!! I can't believe how fast the time goes!

class outing// paseo

Last week I went on a field trip with my manufacturing class to a metal casting manufacturer! The plan was to meet up with a friend from class (who happens to live less than a block a away) at 10 am giving us a half hour to get there and she would lead the way. I set my alarm for 9 am buuut for some reason at 10:05 I get woken up by a call from her asking where I was! What is it with me and being places on time... I don't get it! So starts heading to the train station and tells me the directions so I can meet them there. This was probably the fastest I've gotten ready in a long time haha and I run out the door to the station wearing of course a shirt and jacket that don't match... So the train system (Renfe) here is a bit confusing, there are no maps once you get underground! I don't understand why that is... so once there I had the security lady write down which trains would take me where I needed to go and get a call from my friend saying that she got on the wrong train! haha so she ended up coming back and we took the same train there.

The area by the factory was so different from Barcelona! There was open space and land and it felt so nice to see the sky everywhere! We walked up the street and see a group of our classmates and realize they were still outside!... only to realize they had been waiting just for us! haha o geez.

Yesterday was so amazingly warm I coudn't believe it!! I was in a t-shirt! So of course I walked over to the beach during my 3 hour class break

I took a durum kebab (my new replacement burrito) and enjoyed it on the beach. These kebabs are delicious I can't get enough of them, they are made with some sort of thinly sliced meat, lettuce, cabbage, onions, some veggie mix and three delicious sauces, one with lots of garlic, you can just imagine how lovely one would smell after eating them, haha but it's worth it, trust me.

On Saturday I went to a futbol game!!! Barca vs Malaga, Barca won of course but Malaga scored a goal too! It was really fun, I can't believe how insanely big the stadium is! Wow.

papabubble

Papabubble is a cute little store that makes fresh candy everyday! They put tiny decorations on each piece. I've seen some that even have people's names spelled in them! I have no idea how it works but its awesome! and this store makes the whole street smell delicious!

This is a reminder that I need to go back to this coffee place... it looks delicious

nice day number 1

The other day I went on a long walk to the park then a new beach! here are some photos:

hungarian dinner!

My friend Adina and her boyfriend Victor invited us over for some traditional Hungarian food last week, it was so amazing! They made a kind of potato stew with tomatoes onions and bell peppers topped with some Hungarian style sour cream, perfect comfort food for the unexpected thunder storm that hit that night. For desert we had a kind of crumbly deliciousness with jam! The night ended as my mom would say "panza llena, corazon contento!"

p.s. Sorry the pictures are terrible, slowly realizing that auto white balance does not work.
