t minus 4 days and counting....

Well, the second exam was a piece of cake. I finished that up and then headed to Vilu to take a shot to celebrate. It was good times, and after a couple more drinks I went back to my house for dinner and then got ready to go out. It was just a normal night until our friends told us that it was our last night with them because they were going to caceres the next night for a party... so that put a damper on things. Around 7'30 we left the castle and headed home... and we were all a mess crying and whatnot. even villa, one of the guys was a mess. I had thought it was a joke until I saw him cry.
When Adolfo dropped us off though he felt so bad that we were so sad that he let us in on the joke.
I woke up on Tuesday... our last day in Trujillo... to meet Lola and Allison (our professors) and nene sarahs brother, conchy sarahs mom, and sarah for drinks to celebrate the last day and conchy and nenes birthdays. Afterwards I got home and started to pack and then headed to the pool for a couple of minutes.
We had our final party at La Coria and my mother and my sisters bought me a shirt to wear. It was nice and I had a good time, but luckily they saved me from having to go to the students party afterwards.
Things were starting to get sad when it was after dinner and time for me to go out for my final night in Trujillo because I had to say goodbye to my mother and my sister, Toya. I started crying and had to leave pretty quickly.
We ended up going to Vilu to say goodbye to Emilio and then to Cabo Verde. It was also the first night that I had ever really talked to Sarah's brother, who I have found that I rather enjoy talking to...
We ended up at the castle and yep... I won the war. I didn't win a single battle, but I won the war. (The whole thing is over who can get Luis because everyone thinks he's absolutely beautiful... I didn't know there was a competition until I had won though... I was in the dark) Yeah, he me gustas me.... not me cae bien... which means he likes me likes me... not likes me as a friend... and then he kissed me. It was sweet. He's a good kisser. But now that that's done with I'm done with him and am ready to give him back his heart. Haha. I'm such a terrible person.
I didn't get home until the sun had already risen... it was about 9 or so and we had to be at the bus by 11 to leave. My mother and my sister weren't there so my other sister and I grabbed a ride from Nene and headed to the station. I started crying pretty much the minute I got there. Beni came by to see us off and so did the rest of the guys that have Americans staying at their houses. And Sarah and the other Sarah's mothers made me cry to. I cried for a good several minutes even after the bus had left Trujillo. But they all said hasta la primavera... so hopefully I can come back for the semester.
We went to Toledo yesterday and it was neat. I was super tired from a good couple days of exams and parties, but I could appreciate it a little bit. I'm also out of memory card and film. I don't know what to do.
We got into Madrid last night and I just crashed.
Today we went to the Museo Nacional del Prado. Amazing. I need to go back because I definitely didn't see all there was to see.
Jenna... you're going to LOVE your birthday present.... I think? I hope.
The guys want us all to come to Sevilla this weekend for another concert and one last hurrah. I don't really want to make the trip because it's about 6 hours to Sevilla plus another 6 back the next day and then we're leaving the next day for America, but I want to see them so badly. We're trying to get them to cancel and just come up to Madrid for the weekend, but if they can't I don't think we'll be able to say no and we'll just ahve to go and suck it up. But also, we're going to see the Guernica and Picasso's stuff that day too and I'd miss it if we went. It's a toughy. Shoot. Advice?
Well, I've gotta run.
I'll see you guys in 4 days or so. I'm so sad.
Love and kisses
Aubrey
