I was dubbed!
I was on the Catalan news channel IB 3 a couple of days ago and my interview in English was dubbed into Catalan! Check it out:

A May List
1. Barcelona was incredible. We stayed in an adorable (by that I mean cute and tiny) apartment right next to the super busy ramblas.
2. We watched the most exciting soccer match-up at a recommended bar and Barça creamed Madrid 6-2! We also watched as all of the drunk bar goers flooded the streets and celebrated.
3. We successfully navigated the Barcelona bus and metro system to get to the Sagrada Familia, Park Güell and the airport.
4. We fit in some beach time on the Barcelona coast which mostly consisted of people watching and listening to chants of "Cerveza Cold Beer, Cerveza Cold Beer" from the guys carrying coolers.
5. We started planning for our whopper of a trip in June which mostly consists of trying to navigate the complexities of a badly translated ferry system and saving up as much money as possible.
6. I made two spreadsheets in excel. One to keep track of jobs I have applied for or am interested in and one to keep track of apartments we look at in Portland. They are named Job Hunter and Apartment Hunter. Andy says that when you pronounce them, you must whisper.
7. The sun has finally come to stay in Palma and it's supposed to reach 80 degrees this weekend so I am gearing up for some major beach time!

Barcelona!
We are packing to leave in a few hours for Barcelona until Monday. It's raining now but it should clear up by tomorrow. I found a cute little apartment online that we will be sharing with our roommates Nikki and Joseph and I am hoping everything works out. I am pretty excited to see Barcelona since it will be my first time.
And on another note: Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad! Hope it's a great one.
