Hola Hola Hola.
So recently I was in the shock phase of being in a foreign country and feeling overwhelmed with all of the bureaucratic hoops that we like monkeys must swing through...
In the moment we are in the process of obtaining our NIE..which means that we can stay past the normal 90day traveler visa and allows us to be here for 9 months. Spanish government is a bit slow and our appointments for the NIE will not be until November. Which we've heard is incredible fortunate! The language and culture assistants from last year came and left without ever getting their appointments.
So..we have others ways of leaving the country if we don't get our NIE in time. One must posess a "regresso" every time one desires to re-enter Spain.
There was a one day orientation that was exhausting..(mostly because it was in Spanish and in a hot, muggy tiny pit of a room).
Anywhoooo...FUNNIES of last week:
The kids in my first class which will probably be my favorite because I have them 3 times a week and they are 13years old...asked
"teacher, what is swag?"...."do you have swag?"
bahahahahahahaha. i love them already. I mumbled something about being cool and said its something you can't explain and that of course I have swag.
{So we have an apartment that is an exterior and interior..my room faces the interior of the building complex. Out my window I see into other people's lovely houses and drying laundry. I also get to hear everyones noise pollution..:) I mean at least I have a window.}
When trying to sleep i hear the following:
someone attempting to learn the piano
man next to my head (paper thin walls) SNORING- SAWING LOGS
baby crying...( i may never want children...)
spanish tv shows...( i imagine a man topless leaned back on his couch with beer in hand)
