Experiencing Life Above the Clouds

The blog of randomness:

I felt my first earthquake since I got back this weekend. Pretty exciting!
Perrito (my favorite dog from last spring) was thought to be gone, but returned this weekend. (pictured below!)
I have to pour a bucket of water down the toilet for it to flush.
I often get words mixed up in Spanish, making my teachers laugh when I use anos instead of años ('anus' instead of 'years').
The guy I bought avocados from last year isn't around any more. This makes me sad.
I was at a Flaminco dance recital Saturday night and some of the older students from IAS were in the balcony throwing stuff. I was lucky to get two pieces of gum in my hair. I wasn't happy about this.
I am only the third American to be a student at my Spanish school in three years (most are Dutch).
I was happy to see that my shower was plastic instead of metal this year, thus minimizing the 'shock' value! (I was shocked a lot last year in the shower due to the eletric heating method. They would have live wires in the shower to heat the water with a metal shower head. Anytime you would accidently touch the shower head, you would get shocked. Interesting by true!)
I have eaten more hotdogs in the last week than I have in the last two years!
Couples think it is okay to make out in coffee shops, on the streets, on the bus, ect. (not okay with me!)
Most dogs are kept on the roof of the houses here.
Life is interesting here. You should come check it out!!!

(some random pictures to go along with the random posting!)

This dog lives on my new street. He doesn't have a name yet but he will soon! Any suggestions are welcome!

Perrito! This dog was my favorite last year. He often wore a green sweatshirt when it was cold outside. I greet this dog everytime I see it with, "Hola Perrito, como estas?" I like him a lot.
