¡REAL MADRID!
So I went to teach English today...right next door to the Santiago Bernabéu stadium where Real Madrid was about to take on Real Zaragoza...Let's just say I got done teaching English, went to catch the metro, and was met with chaos. People were everywhere. Screaming, running, everywhere. The metro was packed too, but luckily I was leaving the stadium area. Oh fútbol and the craziness that ensues. People were singing on the metro, it was great.
I need to get myself to a game, that's for sure.
My English classes went well. My 10 year old is at a good level...prepositions and such. My 13 year old, damn, she's like fluent. I'm basically there to chat with her in English. She freaking studied in Ireland already. At the age of 13 she's preparing to take this British fluency test... I'm impressed, I had to just keep thinking up conversation topics to take up time. I was dreading this teaching thing, but those girls are just precious and in about 5 weeks now, I may start to get paid! Damn 10 hour "hands on internship" aka work for free.
I think I have 2 papers due in comp tomorrow...whatev, these aren't real classes...oh wait, I think they're turning out to be very real, DAMN Complutense classes had to start and snap me out of my fantasy.
