Things I will write about (once I insure I will actually pass my classes):
1. Lisbon
2. The incredible consumption of food that was my parent's visit
3. The Bolonia plan protests
4. Sevilla
Lists help me.

Things to which I've become accustomed that at first seemed notable:
-People carrying long skinny baguettes at all hours.
-Dog poop sitting in the middle of the street, waiting for my shoes.
-Nothing being open on Sundays. Except maybe the hospital.
-Everything but cafes and restaurants being closed from 2-4 p.m.
-Olive oil (of the delicious variety). Everywhere. Usually with salt.
-Eyes looking at me when I eat shell fish.
-Newspapers that do not hide their (Obama) biases.
-A total distaste for most sarcasm, regardless of intonation. "Es un CHISTE" currently is the important phrase in my vocabulary.
-My ever-loosening grasp on coherent English.
-Indoor smoke.
-The popularity of low rider bicycles. My friend remarked that finding a good road bike is more difficult than finding "the ones with the tiny wheels." (Image coming when I have completed my midterm.)
