change

so i've decided to turn this into my travel blog as of now until i get something new. i'm studying in sevilla, spain. so far as follows:

day 1:
day 2:
day 3:
[will edit days 1-3]

day 4: first day of class
woke up at 7pm. headed to Plaza Nuevo to meet my classmates and directors but got lost on our way. Called the director and he suggested to just take the taxi back there since we don't have much time. Finally arrived and we had a tour around the area around ISA building. We walked around and saw Spain's largest cathedral, some buildings, and some interesting monumnets

[update later]

so i finally got my schedule and i am not so quite happy with it. each class is 2 hrs and i have 5 classes. i need to drop one class to add a spanish class so i can actually speak and communicate with people! i feel so helpless without knowing much here. i miss the fact that people in california can understand me wherever i go! it makes me more nervous to go places myself without knowledge of the language!!

right now im eating the sandwich my homestay mom packed for me this morning. it's just tortilla (potato) in between bread and an apple that i ate earlier. i am currently waiting for my 6-8pm class in the skype room of UIMP. my contacts are so dry -.-

Bam

where my heart belongs

Although home is just another four-letter word, it bears a lot of meaning behind it. Home is where you first learned to ride your bicycle, where you made your first best friends, where you had your first Christmas.

Being away from home for so long makes me realize and recollect all these past memories, especially with your closest and best friends. It makes me appreciate them that much more. I recently hung out with a friend whom I haven't seen since last summer and it's just one of the things that just made my whole break. I love how we still connect and bond like we see each other frequently even though we live over 500 miles apart. I love how we get along so well and complement each other's jokes. I just love how you know that your friends will always be your friends. It makes a smile tug upon my face :)

I love how my friends are willing to make the drive to San Francisco just to get dessert and see each other, even if it is only for one hour. And oh, how I LOVE the Bay Area so much - the people, the places, the feeling of home.

And of course, I can never forget family. We get annoyed of each other 24/7, but before I go to bed, I reflect upon my life and am so grateful to have my mom as my mom, dad as my dad, sister as sister, and brother as brother. I wouldn't trade them for the world. They have put up with all my bs and will still continue to do so in the future. <3

Sometimes I feel restless, uncertain, and scared for my future after college whenever I'm on break because I feel like I should be pursuing something at school.. but I've come to realize why. It's because home is my comfort place. Ironic, but maybe I'm scared that I'll get too attached to this comfort place - attached so much that I don't want to go back to school 500 miles away -scared that home is all I want.

Welcome to MY home.

Oh, life

One new goal each week. And I can't start on the next until I finish the first.

... but first, let me actually accomplish it :(


goal #1: sleep earlier to avoid being late to class

Judging by the time, it looks like I will be on this for a while...
