Día Tres: Host Families

Breakfast at 8:00 am. My roomate and I agreed to wake each other up, because if yesterday was any indication of today, we would be in serious trouble if we did not eat anything. And, as everyone knows, my caffine addiction prevents me from being a properly functioning person unless I've had coffee in the morning. Still, waking up after yesterday was a bitch. My whole body was aching and just begging for sleep. After breakfast, we were required to attend several orientations on housing and classes, and then we would be set free to our host families. I had received information on my host family the day before, which consisted of my senora and her daughter, Inma. Needless to say, I was extremely excited to meet them. When the information sessions were over, I finally got to meet my senora. She took me to Los Remedios, which is across the Guadalquivir from the main part of Seville. My apartment is beautiful, and my room is huge, with a nice window ledge perfect for sitting on. My window overlooks Calle Asuncion, which is always filled with the most adorable little children and dogs. My apartment is right above an ice cream shop, as well, which might end up to be a bad thing. I also have a wonderful dog named Bobi. We had lunch together, and I met her daughter and her daughter's boyfriend. They were all so nice and welcoming. After lunch, I had more orientations with CIEE, meaning once again, no siesta during the hottest part of the day, and returned for dinner. My senora is a fantastic cook, I love her food. I'm definitely going to like it here.
