Las Cositas that I Have Already Learned


My stupendous travel companion, Hallie Morse, in abeautiful museum that was previously a convent.

After a long day of exploring the mind-boggling beautiful city of Sevilla there are a few "cositas" that I've already learned about my new living environment.

1) I'm terrible, and I mean terrible at operating my Spanish cell phone.

2) Our house mom serves soup for almost every single meal.

3)Never judge the weird looking chocolate stuff in a jar that goes on toast...It's actually quite heavenly.

4) Clearance boots from Charlotte Russe were never made to surround your feet in comfort while trekking the ins and outs of  Europe. But who cares, they look fabulous.

5)The ice cream is way better here.

6) There is a shoe store literally around every single corner.

7) Even Spanish people enjoy "Low" and "Single Ladies."

8) They sell popcorn, hot dogs, and nachos at movie theaters even if you're across the ocean. What a relief.

9) No matter how hard I try I'm going to stick out like the incredibly underdressed, desperately in need of a stylist American lass that I am.

10) Designer purses seem to be priced much more reasonably here.

11) My camera is going to be my absolute best friend.

12) I already want a cheeseburger and four months is an incredibly long time without fried pickles.

13) I really hate the fact that Pandora does not work in Europe.

14) The cathedrals here are breathtaking.

15) Jet lag is on my top-ten list of the worst things in life.

16) My adorable roommate is tutoring her wonderful boyfriend in Spanish over Skype...Cute right? I know.

17) I miss my dog, my bed, and most of all my boyfriend more than anything in the world and it's only been a few days.

18) My madre is an awesome painter.

19)America seriously needs to mandate a continent-wide siesta time every day from 1:30-5:00 pm.

20) This is one of the most amazing, incredible, fantastic, magnificent opportunities of my life.
