I find it amusing that beer is sold right next to the soda here, everywhere. Checking your E-mail? Have a beer! I for one insist on Pepsi, every day.
A few recommendations concerning Spain:
*Don´t bring an alarm clock, buy one here with a Spanish electrical plug. Other alarm clocks will lose time through converter signals.
*Don´t bring a bottle of sunblock and a bottle of bug spray, just bring two bottles of sunblock. I haven´t seen a mosquito in two weeks.
*People are less likely to overcharge you if you speak to them in coherent Spanish. A lot of them seem to think that if you don´t speak the language you can´t do math.
*Stop complaining about shit that you have in America and not here, you whiny little bitch! Oh wait, I guess that one was directed more at one person in particular. In Fran´s words: "It´s Spain, it´s summer, it´s hot, it´s dry, sometimes there´s no water for a while. You´ll have water soon. Jesus Christ."
*Freeboob while sunbathing on the beach. I promise you you don´t know what you´re missing.
*Get lost and meet people.
*Drink a malibu piña.
*Don´t drink 4 malibu piñas. (No, that was not MY experience.)
*For the love of fucking god don´t actively search for a McDonald´s here. I´ll punch you in the face.
I made a friend the other night who told me I barely had an American accent. It was cool. An hour later I was trying to explain Thanksgiving to him because he didn´t really understand that it wasn´t Halloween. "No. Calabaza no, pavo sí." Hehe.
Ai, well, I guess I´m gonna take off. I´ve taken to saying "Ai" all the time and pronouncing my y´s like English j´s. (Or, as far as Caitlin and I am concerned, voiced palatal africates. Ooh... palatal? Alveolar? ¡Dr. Joe! ¡Ayúdame!
