Yesterday was pretty amazing. I am pretty good with the Madrid metro now. Fit everything into my larger purse for the weekend so when I arrived I took the metro into the city center and walked around a little bit until 2:00 and then I went to an indian restaurant I had found online and had chicken samosas and daal makhani. I had been craving that daal especially so I was very content. Felt a bit silly being alone, but wasn't weird enough to keep me away from the papad and bollywood music playing over the stereo system. lol.
It was raining when I was done so I decided to be weird and because it was a day of doing things that I like I went to starbucks and got coffee that comes in larger than 1/4 c. serving and read some of my spanish novel in a big chair.
Afterwords I found my hostel and checked in, put some stuff in a locker and then took the metro back to the Bernabeu. Sat around for an hour and a half...saw the Valencia bus come in (SILVA!!!!!!! yea. Saw him in the window). Bought some almonds, I guess eating nuts (sunflower seeds especially) is really big during the games. Everyone brings their own little plastic bag with dinner in it to the stadium, but I had my almonds and an apple. Found my seat and waited for the teams to come out to warm up and then the game started.
It was pretty awesome. Lots of jeering at the Valencia fans...2-0...wished RM had dropped some points seeing Barcelona decided to tie Espanol. gross. Also, Silva
Back to the hostel and to sleep. Woke up and got a train at 8:30 am back to Avila and went straight to class for my midterm. Nice.
If you didn't notice that last picture is the reason why I was at that god-forsaken game where RM DIDN'T drop points and Silva DIDN'T own...Casillas(portero), Villa(7) and Silva(21)
