some of you may remember my last attempt at chronicling my time abroad (europeandebut.blogspot.com). i believe the last entry is dated november of 2007. sorry. i got carried away by my adventures and neglected to document them. well, i'm abroad again, this time in spain. i've been in madrid since january 15, 2009. why did i not think to start a blog earlier? fear of commitment, perhaps. foreseeing that i would never write in it? definitely. it has since occurred to me that, since i'm planning on staying abroad for quite some time, it would be nice to share my activities, experiences, plans, thoughts, and observations with everyone.. elsewhere. so here goes.
on february 1, it snowed in madrid! the other BU folks weren't impressed, but i hadn't seen snow since the freak storm in mtp december 15, 2007 (the day the aquarium opened).
les trois graces looked a little chilly that day, and our poor old christmas tree... the marble was treacherous.
this is a typical french "fanfare", or community band.
now it's a bit warmer...
we can stay outside all night. this is my proto-spanish dread, and mikayla, who suggested i manifest it.
