Sevilla always surprises me with how small it really is!

Like, I always walk around some place I'm not familiar with, and then all of a sudden I know exactly where I am.. everything is connected!

People too.. Like today, I was crossing the street after the bridge, and I see a guy on a bicycle coming from the opposite direction, and it's Frank, my psych professor, heading towards Triana. He was like Heeeeyyyy! And I was like Hola Frank!!! 

There are also people you bump into that you'd prefer not to... like my runner friend Jose who is SO AWKWARD. I tried to pretend that I didn't see him (This was on Av de la Constitucion), but he was like 'Hey! Hey! Hola!' So I turned around while still walking and said Oh, hola! Qué tal? And he like.. put his arms up as if expecting me to stop.. but I was still walking and he didn't answer my Que tal so I was like OKAY NOT STOPPING hehehe..

Also, I went to put more money on my phone (probs for the last time).. and I asked 'Puedo recargar mi mobil aqui?' ... and the guy smiled and said yes and I did.. But I realized later that my 'recargar' sounded more like 'recagar' because my mouth tripped over that 'arg' sound... and 'cagar' means to shit... so I'm assuming 'recagar' technically means to re-shit.. I don't know if he caught on to it, but I basically asked if I could re-shit my cell phone instead of recharge... heh oh well!

Then I went to this cute little book fair that's going on in Plaza Nueva! A whole bunch of book stores set up stands and sell lots of books for cheap! I was looking for Leyendas o Rimas de Becquer, but I couldn't find any and I was too scared to ask. I did, however, buy The Little Prince in Spanish (El Principito).. so that's cute!

Then when I was coming back, a man stopped me on the street to sell me some sort of magazine/newspaper about the strike and recortes (cutbacks of salary and such).. or at least, that's as much as I understood. And I really didn't want to buy it but he was like, how about just the newspaper for 1 euro? And I was like wellllll I'll just buy it as a CULTURAL EXPERIENCE. So I bought it.. and when I got back to my house I saw that Hammer and Sickle sign.. and I was like Oh nooo.. and then I saw that it said 'Periódico Semanal de Unificación Comunista de España' ... Weekly Newspaper of the Communist Unification in Spain (the spanish commie party)..

Heh woops to me for giving money to the Communist party of Spain... my dad would be sooooooooooo proud. IT IS A CULTURAL EXPERIENCE?

Heh woops..
