I love it hurrrr… except the past tenses are still not easier than they were in the estados unidos. Ah, well. I went to the mall with two of my friends today. We bought groceries at Eroski, which is a superstore. I had some issues communicating with a security guard about a broken locker door for my stuff from outside (because you can’t carry fillable bags into the store) but we figured it out. I ended up spending 55 euros with my roomie on food and a few other necessities that will definitely tide us over for more than a week. Tomorrow we will buy some clothing, because it’s so hot here and I need a dress and at least one skirt and one pair of shorts. It is so not getting colder yet!!! 😀
También, I went to go see a Pedro Almodóvar movie called La piel que habito with three of my friends in the Modern Cinema, which is, funnily enough, in the ancient quarter of town. It was totally wacky, like dear Pedro, and it had Antonio Banderas in it, like Pedro’s movies do. I’m talking about it like I have any idea, even though I’ve only seen one of his movies before this one. But, boy, was this one good/crazy/disturbing. Whew. You have to go see it. In English, it’s The Skin I Live In.Â
After that, we visited a friend and she fed a few of us some great, authentic Japanese food, and they even gave me some seaweed and stuff so I could eat something. Then when I got back to my room I lost my key haha… But not before skyping one of by bestestest friends from home and deciding that, one day, we will do the camino de santiago together. One month, one pilgrimage, one tent. Two chicas with a mission and sore legs. 😀
Hasta luego y Mucho love
