Saturday 10th March

Yesterday was quite a busy day at school which I prefer, I got quite a lot done which was good and the lunch was actually quite nice which is almost unheard of! After school I came home to skype and then fell asleep by 5pm. I’m still not feeling well so I had turned down going into the city with everyone, there is a new bar opening with unlimited food and drink for £10 but I just felt so tired I just stayed at home. I think I needed to though as I fell asleep at 5pm and didn’t wake up until 7am!

I got a text this morning from one of the teachers inviting me out for lunch in the city. I was planning on going into the city anyway to do a bit of shopping so I got a taxi with two other teachers at 11am. We went to my favourite restaurant, the tapas place and every time we go I want to try the paella because it looks so good so we ordered that and a few tapas. I’m glad we ordered a few other things because the paella came and it was horrible! It wasn’t like any of the paella i’ve ever had and I felt quite sick after eating it. Not nice at all! After lunch we went to one of the markets and back to one of the teachers apartment who lives in the city to chill out. I got a taxi back home and had just got in when I got a text off one of the other teachers asking if I wanted to go for dinner later. Now there is one restaurant, “yao’s” that I hate eating out at but everyone else seems to love it and this was where the 3 teachers I was going for dinner wanted to go. I now had a choice of either going and not really enjoying the meal, or eating dinner on my own. Off to Yao’s it was then, beats eating alone! The food was ok, but it is always covered in oil and really greasy, but the company was good so I had a nice catch up with them.

After dinner I came back to my apartment and watched a film on my laptop, skyped and then was in bed by 11pm. It has been quite a nice day today and the weather has been good as well, it’s been a bit warmer (about 6-8 degrees C) and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky today but it has been quite windy! Apparently it is going to get a bit warmer next week, I can’t wait!
