One week left

Hi all,

Today I have a week left before I leave for Spain!!! WIth this in mind I thought I would resume this blog and use it for the purpose I had in mind originally: the ubiquitous college kid travel blog.

So yes it's true (even if I don't believe it yet), I will be spending the fall semester in Madrid, Spain. I will be taking classes at the Complutense University of Madrid (Spanish: Universidad Complutense de Madrid) for the fall semester 2008. I just received the final mailing from my abroad program and it looks like there will be about 100 total American students attending IES Madrid Fall 2008. It should be exciting meeting kids from all over the country. My roommate goes to Santa Clara, in fact. I also got my homestay housing assignment with Ana Colón Mateos at Calle Raimundo Lulio 2, 1ºD (First floor), 28010 Madrid. If you like googlemaps as much as I do then check it out:

So yeaaa, looks good. I'll write again soon and hopefully include Skype information for you
