Scrap the Challenge! + Spain + A new apartment

Okay so I'm not as good with structure as I would like to think. I've been about to post a few times this week, but then I remembered "The Challenge". It made me change my mind about posting :( So I am going to scrap The Challenge and post what I want, when I want. Then maybe I'll pick up a few prompts from The Challenge if I feel like it.

Right now, I want to talk about two cool things that happened to me today:
  • I am going to Madrid, Spain on a Study Abroad during fall semester 2012 (that part's not new) and I found out a girl in my Spanish class is going that same semester!!! (that part is). She is an awesome girl! She is super outgoing and loves to practice her Spanish whenever she can. I look up to her and her ability (more like will power) to resist using English when a conversation gets slow or tricky. Even though it's quite a long while away, I look forward to having Katelyn in my study abroad group. She'll be super fun and make Spain an even better experience :)
  • I bought a contract for fall/winter!! I will not be homeless next year! Yay!! I'm going to room with this super awesome girl named Amanda. I'm sure I'll introduce her soon. But for now, I'm just so stinkin' excited to have finally signed somewhere. It's about as far away from campus as I am living now, but on the Southeast end instead of the Northwest. It's basically the same price for a lot newer stuff. And we've heard all kinds of good things about the ward, the social scene, and the overall area. Oh, and we got one of the apartments with the new carpet! heehee :) I think we're going to love it there. TTFN
