School is overtaking my life :( week after paris...12-15

When we finally got back to Barcelona on Monday, 3 hours after expected, and after class was already half over, I went directly back to the dorm, unpacked my suitcase and went to buy groceries. I took the empty suitcase with me because when you go grocery shopping you have to walk 10-15 minutes to get to the store, and then carry back everything that you buy. This means that you can't buy very much because one, it gets really heavy really fast, and two the bags start to break about half way home. No good. Solution: take a small suitcase and load it up with groceries to roll home! I mean, I feel kinda silly rolling an empty suitcase down the street and then rolling home a suitcase full of food, but you do what you gotta do! It was really nice to go grocery shopping because I haven't had groceries in so long considering we have been gone every weekend, and I didn't want my food to spoil. It was a good little shopping trip and when I got back to the room everyone else was back from class. We had our big review Thursday before the Paris trip but as I probably already mentioned one of the reviewers wasn't there so we were supposed to take the comments we got Thursday and fix some of them and then represent on Tuesday. Such a hassel. So all night Monday was devoted to working on our projects. The review Tuesday went surprisingly well once again. The other guy liked our project and actually said some things that contradicted what our professor said on Thursday. Tuesday night was devoted to worked on our 15 page paper due for one of our seminar classes every Wednesday. The class finishes earlier than all the rest of the so we only have two more classes, and the last one our paper is due. Also, since Jessye is coming to visit me for a week, we are trying to get our paper done a week early so I don't have to work the whole time she is here. We worked all evening on that and got a good chunk of it done. When we talked to our professor about it on Wednesday she really liked it and said we are doing good. Wednesday night once again was to work on our studio project. Thursday we were in class all day. It was our last day of spanish class so we had a test, but it doesnt count for anything. Then we had studio and our professor made us all feel very overwhelmed with the amount of work we have to do in three weeks. Its crazy. After class was over at 8 we went back to Resa. I have a lot to do before Jessye gets here so i was doing laundry and all that fun stuff and typing on my blog. And talking to mom because we hadn't talked in 3 weeks. Everyone went out to some club and I was supposed to go but i really wasn't feeling like it so i just decided to stay in the room and relax by myself. It was really nice! Friday I spent the whole day in studio. Literally the whole day. And once again, saturday i spent the whole day in studio. it was awful. in the evening, i cleaned the room some and finished last minute things for jessye's arrival, and then went to bed.
