omggggggggggg i had SUCH an excellent weekend.
ahhhhh.
so many great things happened.
so everyone went to Barcelona this weekend, and Lauren ended up getting stuck here because apparently you need a passport to travel to Barcelona even though it's in the same freaking country....but even so i'm so glad she was here because she helped make this weekend excellent.
it started Saturday night when Rachel's roommate Katherine asked me if i wanted to eat dinner at her friend's house, that he was cooking. i thought it'd be a good chance to meet some more new people, so i went. it ended up being so much fun! there were 5 other people there, 2 of them lived there. a guy and 2 girls from germany, a guy from brazil, and a girl from connecticut. and katherine is from hong kong lol. but they made pasta with this really good mix of veggies and nuts and cream to put over the pasta...it was delicious. then the guy katherine is friends with gave us some super good chocolate for dessert. oh and they had wine! it was so nice. they just invited whoever over to their house and just cooked for them. it was awesome, and everyone there was awesome. so after that i left to meet Lauren at Erasmus. she got one of the cocktails, and i was just gonna get a beer because the cocktails are 7 euro....so she ordered a gin fizz and another bartender brought it to her, and then right after that the bartender she told that she wanted a gin fizz to brought a blue lagoon and was confused for some reason..so he just said to take it, that it's free! so i took it...haha. and that was just the beginning of the free drinks i got this weekend holy crap. ok so after that we went to la chupiteria and got some chupitos, then to cubic where we danced for soooooooo long! and omg was it fun. cubic is always fun, but not very just because the crowd is usually like 16 year old guys, but Saturday night it was packed! and there were actually people our age! yay! so we danced for forever and then Lauren was tired so she left, but i stayed for a while after and danced some more. i met a few guys and danced with them and it was way fun. i was walking around and saw this guy dancing with really cool black and white pants and a mask on, so i started dancing next to him. we danced for a while and asked the general questions like "where are you from?" blah blah blah and then danced some more. and then he asked me if he could kiss me! like it was so cute..usually guys here start dancing with you and 2 seconds later try to stick their tongues down your throat, but it was so nice that he actually asked lol. so i was uh yeah! so it was way fun. we danced and such for at least half an hour, then his stupid friends kept telling him they were leaving and pulled him away and they all left. lame. but then i walked around some more and met 2 other guys who i chatted and danced with for a while and they were really funny. they were obsessed with america and thought it was so cool that i was from there. by that time it was about 330 and i was super tired so i went home. but pretty successful night i would say!
then last night we went out again because it was actually halloween! i am so surprised at how popular halloween is here. its not anywhere near what it is in the US, like no one really decorates very much or anything, but so many people dressed up every night this weekend! it was great. i tried to get a costume way too late..yesterday lol..but of course nothing is open here on sundays. so anyway...we went to erasmus again because it was buy one get one free cocktails for halloween, and i was definitely willing to pay 7 euro for 2 cocktails. so we went up to the bar and i ordered a long island and was about to pay when the bartender was like "gratis para chicas guapas!" which means its free for pretty girls haha. sooooooo i was like alright i'll take another free 7 euro cocktail, yes please. then i went to get my second one and he still didn't charge me haha. so that's 21 euro, which is almost 30 dollars, worth of cocktails at erasmus this weekend fo FREE. glorious. then we went to chupiteria and got a few chupitos and actually danced there for a while. there were some great costumes! one guy was freddy krueger and his costume was legit. he looked awesome. then there was a gangsta from california..lol and we all just danced for a while. then after that we went to cubic again and saw some of the people from owu there. they had some friends with them from australia and we all danced for a long time there. i danced with one of them for probably like an hour..it was so much fun. he was also dressed as a pirate and i kept telling him i wanted his sword and when we left he actually gave it to me haha. and that's basically it..definitely a super fun super successful halloween weekend!!
and even though i'm sad for lauren that she didn't get to go to barcelona i'm really glad she was here because i had so much fun with her!
on another note...a bug just crawled out from my sheets....so scared there are bugs in my bed....ugh. seriously hope not..i could not deal with that!
LOVE haley
