This has been a fairly ridiculous week! I have had three classes canceled all due to different reasons, a class in which the professor lit incense and made us pretend we were in a church during the middle ages, and now I have a four day weekend!  Wow, my life continues to be a movie, with strange things constantly happening to me. For example yesterday I hugged in the metro by a random man who was walking through the metro hugging everyone.  how do you respond to that?  I am really not sure.  And On Sunday we went to this festival called Correfoc where all of these little kids, probably between the ages of 5 and 12 dress up like devils and hold what are the equivalent of the biggest sparklers I have ever seen, and run through the streets!  WHAT??!!?  Its a catalan festival celebrating the youth but it seems to me like a rather dangerous way to celebrate- fun, but slightly terrifying, especially when the little baby devils get to close to you :)  I am laughing out loud just thinking about it!!

This weekend my friends from CC are coming to visit BCN and I am super excited because I didn't really realize how great a group of friends I have until I left them all behind.  It is also Carnaval this weekend, which is basically a Mardi- Gras like festival before lent, but here it is like the biggest dress up party ever!!  And so I am off to find some crazy cheap costume to wear and reminisce about CC theme parties, which are seriously lacking in my life right now!!  Besos
