Estoy enferma.

Not much has happened so far this week. The weather has been as up and down as usual with rain and sun but luckily I was able to get out for a run all days but yesterday. I´ve been steadily getting sicker and although it´s just a cough and runny nose, it keeps me up at night and wears me out.

Classes have been alright but I´ve been struggling to stay focused and fighting the urge to cough the whole time. I know my friends (especially Liz) want to go up to Camborio tonight but I don´t know if I feel up to it. In the end, I might give in to peer pressure, but really I´ve lost a lot of my interest in going out every week. Plus I just feel so blah right now. We´re supposed to get coffee with Cristian later today and I doubt I´ll even feel like going to that but probably will so Liz doesn´t go alone.

We don´t have any plans for this weekend which is fine with me. Time to relax and hopefully get over this sickness. I might regret later not going to Carnival in Cadiz but oh well. Next weekend we have Monday off so some of us are planning on taking buses to Sevilla and Malaga. The next weekend we´re going to Morrocco. Then I don´t know.. maybe Barcelona for a game? We´re still trying to figure out spring break but I´m thinking we´ll spend a few days in England, go to Croatia and take ferries out to see the different islands around there. Then hopefully figure out a way to get to a few places in Italy on our way back to Spain. I´m thinking about seeing if there´s someone from my church that my sister could stay with while she´s here. I know Kelsey will have her own apartment so maybe her but I don´t know. We´ll see what we can do here in Granada and maybe take buses to places around here while I have school. Then spend the weekend in Paris before Rosemary has to go back home. I just really hope I can figure everything out with transportation and that it ends up being an amazing trip for her. :)

I´m getting a little homesick now that I´m sick. I miss the comforts of home, being able to eat and drink when and what I want (I really want some tea!), and having my mom to take care of me and make me take whatever vitamins I need.
But that doesn´t mean that I don´t like being here too. I love being here. My life is an adventure almost every day. I just appreciate what I have back home a lot more now.
