Today was a very long day, but it was pretty good I guess. It started out that we had exams. I had history and grammar, both which were hard, and I don't think they went very well. At least they're over. After classes we ate bocadillos with our flamenco class. Then we started to get all ready for our flamenco show. I had my hair gelled back really tightly with the clips and flower with my big earrings, and lots of makeup! Then we put on our dresses and headed over to La Caridad, which is the local hospital/nursing home because they have a big stage. I actually did my part mostly right, and it was really fun! Once our part was over we could invite audience members to dance if we wanted to. Then one of the hospital residents asked to dance with our instructor, Sylvia, and that was really cool to watch. Then after that Cody and Jess from my group danced on stage to Backstreet Boys with the Flamenco dance steps! They had some food and stuff out for us, and then we went back to school to get our things. There were tons of people taking pictures of us in our dresses. Once we got home I loaded up my pictures on my computer, and then started up studying again. I have exams on art and short stories tomorrow. I'm thinking they will be better than my last ones, but we'll see. For dinner we had some really ba fish with spinach. Definitely not one of my favorite meals. Time for bed.
