...like watching television with Senora Felipa. Sometimes watching her watch TV is more entertaining than watching the television show itself. The other day, we were watching the news and she saw this politician that she thinks is ridiculous. She straight up called him a piece of sh*t in Spanish. She is a 73 year old grandmother, mind you. She's all about the table manners and etiquette, but not when it comes to talking about crazies on TV. Today during lunch, she saw this really provocative model for Wonderbra on a news segment and called the girl a c*nt. I thought to myself, "Wow. I can't believe senora just said that." Ugh I hate that word, but apparently it's a pretty common slang word and not as rude in Spain as it is in the U.S. Oh Senora Felipa...
Hmm some other things...I talked to my parents on the phone the other day after one month of no phone. I'm glad that they are doing well. I have my final on Friday where I'm going to be tested on 80 hours of intensive Spanish grammar and speech. I guess you could say that I am studying hard tonight because I am going to grab tapas and drinks with some of the girls and Spanish intercambios. If that's not studying and practicing Spanish, I don't know what is. I'm getting good at rationalizing things.
Btw...UC San Diego starts school on Sept. 25th. Good luck tritons!
