Time with family and friends

I spent a lot of time of the break with my friends. I decided not to bring my Drake books and homework to Spain. First of all because my baggage always has problems and then because I decided to have a week without homework.
So from Sunday to Sunday I spent time with family and friends. I cook, I went to some dinners, I drank a lot of coffees, I went to Madrid one day and I read another book of Paul Auster.

And now in Spanish...
Y ahora en español...

Pasé mucho tiempo de las vacaciones con mis amigos. Decidí no llevar mis libros y la tarea de Drake a España. Lo primero porque mi maleta siempre tiene problemas y porque decidí tener una semana sin hacer deberes.
De domingo a domingo pasé tiempo con mi familia y mis amigos, cociné, fui de cenas, bebí muchos cafés, fui a Madrid un día y leí otro libro de Paul Auster.

What are you doing here?

I am in Spain. I arrived on Sunday at Barajas airport in Madrid and then I went to my hometown. It was a big surprise to all my family because only my parents knew about it. So, I arrived at my house, I opened the door and my uncle was there sitting on a chair, he moved his face and asked: "What are you doing here?". I continued giving surprises. I went to the kitchen and my grandmother was there, when she realized that someone was waiting at the door, she turned her face and looked at my, "What are you doing here?." And finally, my grandfather. He was sleeping, so I decided to wait until he woke up. I was talking with my family and then he went to the kitchen where we were talking. He looked at all of us and then he realized that I was there, "You are here! What are you doing here?."
Sunday dinner was great. My other grandparents and my uncles came to my home and we have a big dinner together.
I happy end after three days traveling to arrive.

Have a wonderful break!

I am going to Spain during Spring Break. I have to spend some time with my family and do some papers that I need for this summer.
I hope I can do everything in this few time. In just a week I have to flight from Chicago to Spain, go to the US embassy in Madrid, go to my hometown, the doctor, the laptop company, and the best of all, see my family and friends.
I am at Chicago now, at a friend's house and I will flight tomorrow from Chicago. I am not going to translate this post to Spanish because my family reads it and they don't know that I am going, just my mum. And that makes me happy but also very nervous. I hope they like the surprise.
Today I put this picture of snow at Drake campus because this last week the weather was great and I could walk without looking to the floor.

Have a wonderful break! I will write from Spain some time.
