This past week I visited the Warhol museum. I knew his most famous works, such as the Campbell’s Soup cans and the portraits of Marilyn Monroe, but that was all I knew. I learned so much about him, and his work was real interesting.
I haven’t explored outside of Madrid the past 2 weeks since classes have started. Classes are SO different here at UC3M. We have lecture classes mainly in the beginning of the week, for example, mine are on Monday’s and Tuesday’s. On Wednesday’s, Thursday’s, and Friday’s we have ‘practical’ sessions, which are similar to Supplemental Instructions (SIs) back at the U of A. I haven’t had a problem here at UC3M, but I have had to get accustomed to the new University and the atmosphere of the classes here.
Also, I have recently booked my Spring Break trip to Italy!!! I am so excited to explore Italy for a week. I will most definitely post about that trip when the time comes!! The plane tickets to travel around Europe are ridiculously inexpensive. Traveling is very affordable, unlike back in the States.
So far I’m loving my stay here at Madrid, Spain!
