Bienvenidos a Granada?

Alright so I'm trying to keep an open mind but honestly.. today has not been that great. Getting to the bus, it was raining and it took a long time to get our luggage on. On the train, I was with a bunch of girls I never hang out with and tried to sleep since I only got about 1-2 hours last night buuut that didn't work so well. We got to our senora okay and she's super nice and I really like her. She was really welcoming, giving us besos and whatnot. She fed us some good spaghetti, salad, and bread. The place is pretty small but what's there is nice. The table we eat at is neat - it has a heater underneath it and you put the blanket/tablecloth on your lap and stay nice and toasty since the rest of the house is a little chilly. Our bedroom reminds me a lot of my room in El Paso. We have our own closets, 2 beds, a small table in the corner, a bedstand, and a couple shelves. But that's okay.. it's a room to put my stuff and sleep in. No desks sure but.. I think she would let us use other rooms in the house for that.
The thing that sucks in having no internet. There's an internet cafe nearby but it costs money. We're going to tell the school but even if she agrees to get it I don't know how long it would take and when we'd actually have it. It just sucks all-around to not have it there and to have to pay for it here.
It's also a very cold and wet day. And tomorrow we have our placement test at the school early in the morning.
Eh it's just.. not what I expected. I set my expectations too high.
Anyways.. my battery is really low and we're supposed to be back for dinner soon.
I'm really bummed that I can't talk to my mom on skype now. I miss my family. :(
