Cuidado, Cuidado.....

Que tal tios.
El lunes fuimos a la copa de bienvenidos (como siempre) y conocí el chico nuevo de CMU. Es llama Guillermo Gómez. Es de California y de descendencia mexicana y es un estudiante de ingeniería técnica (o mecánica). Es un chico muy agradable. También conocí unas chicas de Suiza y un chico de Mónaco. Todos salimos por unas tapas y un poco de vino el lunes.

El martes fui de compras (no te preocupes mami, no compre nada. Todo cuesta mucho y no hay nada que no puedo encontrar en Miami) con Tema y mi nueva amiga Kayleigh. El lunes empezó la temporada de rebajas. Todas las tienes tienen descuentos, rebajas, o liquidaciones. Vez en cuando encuentro un postal que dice “Sale” y siempre quiero decir “si dice sale yo entro” (verdad mami? ;) ). Después fuimos a casa y cenamos (por supuesto mientras miráramos pasapalabra). Después Tema y yo quedamos con nuestras muchachas y tomamos un poco de sangría y charlamos de cualquier cosa.

On Wednesday night, we headed out to a Jazz Club called “El Junco”. They had live band doing their thing, people sitting around listening/ talking and just having a good time. All of my muchachas went (as usual) and Kayleigh invited some of her college friends who happen to be working in Madrid. Their names are Javier, Alejandro, Diego, and Sergio. The first three are from Mexico working in Spain and the last one is German working in Spain, and she met them while studying abroad in London. Pretty sweet huh? Also notice how they are all guys. Kayleigh (our resident lesbian) wanted us to meet the guys and hopefully get some of us to “ligar con ellos”. They are all sweet hearts and really funny. Javier is great to talk to, Alejandro is a riot (he wants to learn how to speak with the Miami accent), and Diego always has something awful to say (which is usually hilarious). I didn’t really get a chance to talk to Sergio considering most girls were surrounding him because he was definitely the best looking of the four. So we all stayed at the jazz club for a while and chat with the boys. Afterwards to went to another place where some people from our school were hanging (sadly however we lost Javier and Sergio who had to go home early do to a 7 AM conference call). The Miami boys I had met a few weeks ago were there along with some other guys. Alex, one of the boys, tells one of the guys that I went to Carrollton and the first thing that comes out of his mouth is “KNEE HIGHS! YOU WORE THE KNEE HIGHS?! Those things were HOT!”…..and I knew immediately that they were Columbus boys. The place was not as nice as the first place, so fortunetly we left after being there for maybe 20 minutes. Then we all headed out looking for this club called “Pacha”. Diego thought he knew where it was and made us all walk in a giant circle around the city. It was pretty funny. “no te quejas, te estoy dando el gran tour de la ciudad!” he’d say. After much wondering we found it but it cost way too much to go in, so half of us opted out and decided to go home. But of course, because we’re in Spain it took us 3 times as long to say bye to each other than it normally would with all the besos on each cheek and the “mucho gusto” “igualmente!”. We all also had to figure out WHERE we were and how to get home from there. Diego lived to blocks from club (and then you wonder how he got us lost?) so he walked home, while the rest of us were pretty much in completely opposite directions. It was pretty cute though when Michelle and Alejandro were saying goodbye because Alejandro had it bad for Michelle (little/CMU Michelle, not the usual tall/blonde Michelle….so cute!); he didn’t want to leave her alone. Eventually we all got taxis and went our separate ways.
