2nd pre-written post

Journal 2; Jan 20, 2009. 10:01 Spain time
I haven’t written in here since I’ve been in Spain. I spent 26 hours in an airport because of snow… met some cool people that I just so happen to go to school with now… spent five out of the six days I was here in my homestay last week en el Barrio… and am beginning to enjoy my family here. At first I hated it. Well didn’t hate it, but I was so homesick at night I couldn’t hardly stand it. But now, I’m making Alicante more of my home. The other day I ate lunch with Lindsey Whitt’s lesbians. They were pretty cool. Oh and today I watched the presidential inauguration in a dining room of a small apartment with about 12 of my new friends here. It’s really something to be half way around the world and finally realize the importance of these things. And it was a very singular moment of my life. I don’t have much of a taste for Obama yet… we’ll see what happens… but it was just a unique experience. I know that I’ll say, “I was here…with these people…when.” I’m having a good time. Me, Kyle, Steve, and Lindsey are trying to figure out where to go this weekend. I think it’s incredible that I have the flexibility to move around so much here in Spain. We’ll see what happens when it happens.
