I didn't forget!!

Sorry, I always put this off until last minute. Yes I am aware that it is almost 2 here. It's been a busy night! I chose tonight after dinner to start separating my clean clothes from the dirty ones then picking out the clean ones that I plan on wearing over the next couple of days. Trying to get myself ready for Saturday. Proud of me mom? You didn't even tell me to do that!! Anyway, today was a good day in El Escorial as usual. Honestly though, it's hard not to have a good time with the people I've been spending my past few weeks with. In art class, Danny, Grace and I sat at a table together and were joined by two random Spanish kids from our class. Then a couple more joined us after listening to our conversation. It was so much fun. Finally getting the chance to get to know our classmates when we not have 2 school days left. Better late than never right? Oh and a few guys at the table behind us told Grace and me that they love us. Talk about a confidence booster! We also got our tour of the museum part of the monastery today which was beautiful. Kind of sad we couldn't take pictures. Thank god for photographic memories! We learned a lot about the previous kings and queens of Spain which was really interesting. We also got to see the crypt! If you can call it that. It was this bright room directly below the alter of the church made completely of marble. It was this chapel pretty much that had an alter and a crucifix. If you're facing the alter, to the left are all the kings. Why is this? If you're on the alter, facing the exit, that side is technically the right side which is more important than the left.. More important to God anyway. Something like that. Who was the other side reserved for? The queens of course. However! There is one queen who's casket is with the kings and she is the only one on the right side, and her husband, the king, is on the left. Interesting. Today I also realized that a majority of my money has been spent on food. More specifically, candy from La Tienda de Chuches. For some reason their candy here is so much better than it is at home. I never eat candy at home, but I do here. It's so good! Well it's time para ir a dormir. Hope you all had a great day and that tomorrow's even better!
