No pasa nada...

With Spring Break coming up for nearly every single person I know, I have been remembering how great it was to have breaks from school. I loved getting to go home and relax and eat lunch with my Mom every day, but at the same time, looking back on my breaks from school, my favorite break would be summer 2008. That summer I got to spend the first few months abroad and living the life in Spain. Nothing can compare to that summer. I had no worries, I was doing something new everyday, I was experience life the way I never had before, I learned who I was, and I got to be my full and total self in a totally new place. It was unbelievable. Especially getting to see this every afternoon after class...and getting to sit front row at a bullfight...

and getting to meet some of the greatest girls ever...
and, without a doubt, having the best host parents you could ask for...Oh, Spain. Such an amazing, incredible, life-changing experience. Looking back at these pictures I long for my old beach on the Mediterranean, fresh olives at every meal, to die for sangria, funny interactions while attempting the language, and the best tan I've ever gotten in my life.

But, since I know I won't get to get back any time soon, I guess I can enjoy my pictures, clean puppy curled up in my lap, and think about how my new deck at my house will be my summer substitute for a Mediterranean beach in Spain...
