El Gran Dia

Today was AWESOME! I did so many cool things today:
1. Finished Pride and Prejudice--what a great book. I may or may not be completely in love with Mr. Darcy. Some girls fall for bad boys, I fall for fictional characters. Classic.
2. Went to Cookie Box (a small, in-the-middle-of-nowhere restaurant) and had chocolate chip cookies. Taste of home. Lovelovelove.
3. Finally tracked down my package from my mom. You'll be happy to know I am now fully stocked with sunscreen, dark chocolate, and Converses. What else could a girl possibly want?
4. Hung out with Juliana, my only for-real Ecua friend. We went and got coffee and talked about boys...duh. Cause that's what girls do. We also talked about music and God and working and life--and all in Spanish!!! And I understood it!!! So proud!
5. I had the nicest taxista on the way home and he talked to me for the whole ride about futbol and basket (that's what Ecuas call basketball....love me some abrevs!) and living in the Dor. Again, en espanol. Have I mentioned how much I'm LOVING all this Spanish??
6. Skyped my mom. Try explaining to your friends that you don't want to go out on a Friday night because you're talking to your mom. It sounds lame, but if you know Holly, you know that it wasn't!
7. Picked out classes for next semester. I'm a nerd. And I like it!

Just another marvelous day in the Dor!
