me to Vegas and can do everything I could never do growing up, but I am really sad to be leaving Madrid. I also had two finals on my birthday :/ But, after the International Communications final, our professor guapisimo took us to breakfast at Vips, and bid us goodbye with dos besos!!! :) (We took a picture of the whole class last week, which is to the right). Also, it was snowing in the morning!!!! I haven't seen snow in a long time. It snowed last year in Las Vegas around December 18th-ish, but I missed it because I was in San Diego taking finals. Most of the USD students were really excited about the snow because we don't get it often. 
I celebrated my birthday early with my Spanish family on December 2nd. We went out to La Llama to have yummy tapas and sangria for dinner. It was so early because I wanted Michelle (my roommate from Marist) to be there for it too, and she left Madrid on December 8th. I was in Barcelona and Prague from December 3rd-8th. Therefore, the 2nd it was! After La Llama, we went to get ice cream at Ben & Jerry's in Sol. Then I went out to a few bars with Michelle and her friends since it was our last night together! :( 
On my actual birthday on the 14th, I didn't go out or anything since it's finals week and I had to finish a paper. We had a regular dinner at home, and then they surprised me with an ice cream cake & candles! It was very nice. Finally being 21 will sink in more when I am home... in 4 days.
