Going out

This weekend, I went out both Friday and Saturday night. Going out in Spain is quite different from back home. Nobody goes out before midnight and even that is still on the early side. On Friday, the other two girls in the program, Jill and Michelle, and I went to a bar behind the cathedral at about 11:30. We had a round of callimocho and then left to go met up with some other international students at a bar called Twenty at about 1am. After about a half hour we left to go to another bar 7'70 and stayed out til 3:30 which was going home early (because we had class the next day). Last night we went out with the same international students and met even more of them. We got to Twenty at about 1:45am and stayed out til the bar closed at 4:30am. Then we walked to another party of the city which has after hours clubs but it was either closed or too crowded so we left. The second day we pre-gamed the bar which I definetly think is essential because other wise I'll spend way to much at the bars. Although we are not suppose to drink in the dorms here so I had to sneak in the bottle of rum, which reminded me of the dorms at AU. Here though they are not nearly as strict because no one is All things considered it was a very fun two days. At both bars they played an interesting mix of American and spanish music. At twenty both nights we were there they played a Grease mix. Although 7'70 plays house music which I find impossible to dance. On Saturday Jill, Michelle, and I also went out to dinner which was only slightly successful. I have decided that next time I need to bring my spanish-english dictionary. I only knew a few words on the menu so I ended up ordering something that said ham and then another word. It turned out to be a plate of thinnly sliced ham which is fine, since I actually like that. That fact that we had a bowl of bread helped a lot because then I could eat the ham and bread together. Although considering how picky of an eater I am, I think it was a good dish.
