01 August 2007

2 weeks went by fast....

That it did becasue it´s now the first of August! Matt has been well...working his butt off. He came home one night becasue he had the night off and didn´t tell me. All I heard were the keys in the door and I thought some pyscopathic spanish rapist was after me.

He just went back to the work today after having four days off. In those four days we drank a lot of cerveza amuzed ourselves in Paseo de los Tristos playing card in the shadow of the Alhambra and general marriment. We got a flight back to Britain on August 21 at one in the morning, so again no one should be too bothersome on customs and immigration -- i hope.

Sorry I haven´t written in a while, the computers at school don´t work thatt well and I´ve been busy getting stuff together to apply to grad school!!!! That´s right Matt and I have decided to apply for 2008 to pursue our Masters degrees in Britain and Manchester is showing a lot of interest...which is good becasue it can lead to things like scholarships!!! But that´s a year away yet....first we have to get in.

I only have 7 days of classes left and I feel like my spanish is improving by the day. I feel like I´m finally getting over the confidence barrier of opening my mouth and letting the words come out.

That´s about it for now....talk soon.

love you all!!

Dear Kate,
I was so glad to hear from you. You know how parents and gradparents are!! When a day or two goes by with no contact we start to "freakout". Glad you are feeling better and that your spanish classes are almost over.
Hope you and Matt both get into Manchester and that you can wangle scholarships. Sounds like you're headed for a teaching or research job!! Love, Papa.
