La pelotita!!


"La peliotita" is the little ball in spanish and this "Pelotita" is not a ball, it´s actually a stocking!!
lol....she cries if she looses it....and the vet says...Gala is treating it as if it were a pup!! After finding this out, I felt bad for those countless times I threw the pelotita around the house for her to catch it....lol... but ....what is she doing then? eating her pup???...hmm
La Cuarentuna
Getting ready for the show...

I went to a show on Saturday which was held at the school Siete Colinas. I loved it...lol...these were a large group of oldies singing traditional Spanish songs. Before they performed a song, they would tell us a joke(of which I understood 50% of). This part was the funniest because, one of them wore a white wig and obviously you could only see the back of him... hehehe...his movements were too funny!!

Siete Colinas


Thats the name of the school that I´m working at. The name Sebta/Ceuta actually means 7. Built on Seven Hills. The school is named Seven Hills, nice name I say.
I can see the sea and a bit of Morrocco from the school grounds....lol.....i love it here
My private lessons are going great, so far I teach 9 private lessons a week, french and english. This way I earn a bit of extra dosh(sister is still adamant that its losh).
The first pic is the english hallway....I teach along the whole hallway....bit intimidating at first, but ya get used to it.
I was walking along and I saw a women dropping rubbish in the recycling bin(NORMAL)...followed by a spit on the floor(NOT NORMAL)......minutes later....I witnessed the same thing happen, a man this time...is this sum kind of tradition?.....or do they really taste tiny particles of dirt entering their mouths?....strange....when I put the rubbih out...I close my eyes....lol...even more strange!
