NEW

So, I got a new job. I know, I have been a little iffy on jobs lately, but I found one that I think will stick....AMERICOPY! I really enjoy it. I love the people I work with, and they really work well for my hours. I couldn't be happier with the job. Well, maybe if I got paid 3k per hour, but I get paid well enough, so no complaining. I just needed money so I wouldn't be living in the streets in Spain. I leave on August 28th for Spain and I am so excited. I will be living in a piso compartido, I believe. Which is to say that I will be sharing a flat with other students. Which, I have to say will be cool. And it's cheaper than living with a family. Anyway, summer school is also almost over. 1 more week and I will have met my goals...A's in summer school. 11 credits at 4.0. It's awesome. I would recommend summer school to anyone, especially if they are sciences. I guess that's about it for now. Oh, in 2 weeks I am going to visit Katie in California. I am excited for that, because I get to see her before I leave. It may be the last time for a couple months though, and that's sad. I will be in Spain for four, but Katie and my parents are coming to visit me in October and we are all going to Italy! I think Katie and I may just both find our amores there. Later for now.

This of course is Spain. I'm really on a big Spain kick right now since I will be living there in a few months. It's hard to grasp that I will be leaving and moving out on my own. And in a totally new country. The city I am going to is in the far south, it's called Granada. I will be attending the university there as a transfer student. I will live with a Spanish family, and I can't wait. The picture down at the bottom is a castle that overlooks Spain. It's called Alhambra. Anyway, I have realized something. This year I will live away from home more months than I will be living at home. It's an awesome and scary thought. I think I will have to tell a lot of people just to watch this blog to follow me around in my travels and in how school is doing. Then, I will get less of the, "What did you do? What was it like?" And all that. Anyway, I hope you all appreciate that I'm going to be sharing this with you.
