cho-co-late. malleys. happiness.

yum i love chocolate.

anyways, on to more important matter. today was looking up for me. doctor says my eye is almost better, so i´m going back on the strong meds (you know, the ones they give aids patients, no biggie) to conquer it once and for all. oh i hope it works cuz i´m gonna be feeling real weak for the next few days on two doses of darcortin, a little white pill that makes ya crazy (maybe i´m crazy without it too, but whatever). my bumps are back and better than ever in various places. it´s really fun because they like to form close to one another. i used to have red bump bracelets and those went away and now i have a really cool armband of red bumps around my elbow area. not to mention the really cool ones that decorate my fingers. forget jewelry, just get bitten by spanish bugs, tell your immune system to react poorly, and you will have your very own built-in jewelry collection at your disposal!

anyhow, i got a huge box of chocolates from the fam, a gift for valentines day. i´m celebrating a bit late, but late is better than never when it comes to chocolates. thanks guys! now i have about 3 pounds of chocolate to eat and i look forward to gaining those pounds and then pouting at my stomach each night.

today was a day. i went to school, my classes were pretty interesting, i did some homework, but mostly just procrastinated like always. i´m really good at that... but then again, i guess it´s easy to be good at and everyone else is pretty good at it too.

amaia is home with her bf cuz she´s sick but i´m not spending time with them cuz i´m waiting on mom and sis to come on skype and talk to me. (where are you guys!!?) oh, there you are. mom is finally on. (at 1:20 am for me, how convenient!)

i decided it´s the time to splurge on some kinda really awesome piece of clothing, i just don´t know what it is yet. i´m saving about hundreds of dollars by going to girona and figueres (and not portugal which was originally the plan, but backfired cuz it´s too stressful to plan a trip to another country last minute with finals coming up the week i return) this weekend, so i´m buying a freakin tunic shirt or something to make up for it.

i have 12 days left here, and i´m kinda sad, but not really. ok i´m sad. but really, i´m excited to be back home. i´m kinda hoping everything will just magically be perfect when i´m home. for instance, my built-in jewelry will disappear, the vision in my left eye will suddenly be perfect, my split ends will go away (that might actually happen cuz i have a haircut appointment), i will understand exactly what i want to do with my life, i will lose my bread weight (it has to be bread weight... 2 loaves of white bread a day just isn´t healthy... but it is necessary cuz i´ll soon return to the u.s. and packaged bread forever), and so on and so forth. doubt all that´s gonna happen, but a girl can dream right?

i´m spoiled.

moving on.

i think it´s time for sleepy time cuz mommy isn´t answering the skype call and i need to wake up bright and early so i can do some more lovely homework... reading and translating baby.

dear nana and papa, i got your letter! thanks :) i loved it. i am going to respond by blog because i´m not sure if the whole email thing is working out for you and by the time a letter gets to you, it will be june already (and i´ll be home). so everybody, look forward to a special grandparents blog in the near future where all questions will be answered.

ahhhhh i´m feeling antsy and not ready to go to sleep. must be too much chocolate.

is it weird that this blog has chocolate laced though it all over? i feel like i have a phrase about it between every paragraph, and that´s bordering on obsession maybe. someone, is there a cure to this disease they call chocoholism? do i really have to completely eliminate it from my diet, or is that just for alcoholism? i sure hope the two scenarios are different because i know i could live without alcohol, but i´m not quite sure if i could live without chocolate. not that i have a problem with alcohol, if that´s what it sounded like. cuz i don´t.

ok, this blog is pointless and really needs to end now. goodbye my loves.

(p.s. dad and nicole - that reminds me of the song ¨bye, bye love¨ and how we used to dance around the family room table to all our good music.) p.s. mom i can´t wait for aerobics. p.s. everyone else - in the sills family, two things are pretty important (among others)... that would have to be music and exercise.
