Should I describe friends I have made during the last years...I would probably need to stop studying and write full time about each of them, for a YEAR! Esta imagen es de mi amigo Verano. The one that nicknamed me ´hormona´, the hormone. For my hyperactivity. Don´t think dirty. He is an artist. He would not like that label though. A publicist, nop, he would not like that one either. What about the most creative person I know. He is working on a children´s calendar and I have stolen this very timely image from him.

I would be the one under the blanket... Just replace MIT with Harvard...and...I saw Borat.

I discovered today with my Stats exam that even if during the semester you more or less follow the class and are somewhere not too extreme in the Bell curve....the finals can be very tough. And long (3 hours). All in all I hope I am still the B GIRL that I am. I have savored a couple of As this semester in partials...but I know that I belong to B. I am going to Barcelona tomorrow (well, there is a snow storm forecasted...with my luck, I can also foresee what could happen*). Just for 10 days. It is going to be short but intense...family, food (Gosh, I miss jamon. I miss my family too! but the other day I found myself checking the US Customs website to see whether I can bring some vacuum packed ham. The answer is no).
