So it's finally a gorgeous day - bright blue sky, temperatures in the low 60s - the type of day the rest of you probably imagine as a typical Madrid day. And no, this weather isn't typical; Madrid's on about the same latitude as New York City and Princeton. And after two weeks of rain, and then a week of sun but low temperatures, I am more than ecstatic about this beautiful weather. Some of the cafes and cervezerias on my street are even putting out tables and chairs on the walkways where I didn't even know enough space existed. It's making me extremely excited to be ending my weekend travels in the next 3 weeks and spend the end of my semester enjoying the warm weather and eat outside in the plazas or the parks. Unfortunately, I can't advantage of this amazing weather currently, because of these horrible things called midterms that my school is holding, to make us feel that we are attending some semblance of a university institution. If they could simulate productivity and inclination to study for me as well, I'd be set, but unfortunately I have to come up with this studiousness on my own. We'll see how that goes. With all this complaining I suppose I should stop using this post as a procrastination mechanism, but look how productive I'm being! This weekend I'm heading up to San Sebastián, on the Northern coast in the Basque Country (País Vasco, en español) for a quick weekend with Keegan, hopefully the nice weather will stay around for that! More next week, hope everyone's well!
