Victory!

I know this is now old news, but...SPAIN WON THE WORLD CUP!!!
Let's see some highlights:

De Jong only got a yellow card, but everyone agrees; it should have been red.


This is an aerial shot of Madrid, when the team got back to Spain. That red bus is the Spain team!


=D

Now maybe my blogging will get back to normal, now that I'm not distracted. I missed several music-weekends, whoops!

Spain update + Xx complaint

Got word today that it is unlikely that the school would hire me in the summer to teach because not enough kids attend summer school. Although when I think about it, I guess that doesn't mean that I wouldn't teach in the fall. So, technically, maybe I am still at the beginning. ALTHOUGH, it WOULD be pretty awesome to spend the summer here in Utah, but then go over to Spain in like Mid-late august and teach for the new year/take fall semester classes. But um, that might be my own agenda, and I think that main point for my sister is to help with the rugrats.
But still, although it would be nice to stay in Spain for the summer, if I don't really have much to do, in terms of a job, I definitly would go crazy. I think the teaching part was probably the highlight, honestly.

Anyway, in other news, I hate my Xx chromosome. My emotions have been pretty volatile this past week. AND, my plan to eat healthy sort of flew out the window as soon as I got cramps. dfkjasdlfjasdfasd;flwfalsdjfaoimabsdglha;ldj

Ho hum.

Spanish Dilemma

Okay, SO, this is the situation.

My sister and brother in law are living in Spain. We are going to visit them. They have offered to let me stay for the summer and fall semester, taking classes online and teaching English at a school there. They are moving back to the U.S at the end of the year.

So, opportunity of a lifetime to spend more than half a year living in Spain, BUT, I have hesitations. I decided to make a pro/con list.

Pros:
-Never again (I don't think) will I have this opportunity.
-Free expense of living
-I can take classes online and my sister can tutor me (she is a math major)
-I will be practically living on a private beach
-I will be getting paid for teaching English, AND I don't need to know any Spanish. (which is good, I have mostly forgotten everything I ever learned.)
-I might pick up some Spanish.
-I will spend time with my nephews and newborn niece

Cons:
-I will spend time with my nephews and newborn niece
-Limited television. This is sort of an embarrassing con.
-I will probably be expected to go to church. This is a major con.
-I might get stir crazy
-I get home-sick really easily.
-I don't want to miss anything at home, good or bad. (birthdays, or unexpected deaths)
-I had plans for the summer at home, such as: vegetable garden, fixing up tree house, lots and lots of bike riding.
-I don't know anyone in Spain except family.
-I will be expected to help with children A LOT. Which might be a good lesson to learn, but I am not sure if I want to.

Gah.
