a hello from Barcelona

Just hv a chance to pop into an internet cafe...actually got computers in school, but the only 2 computers need to entertain all students (I guess more tahn 150) students in the school, so...actually can only check mail...not even reply all the mails. yet, since it costs to get only, so just writing my life here for all. (actually got records in my computer, in chinese...maybe upload later when i back to HK.)

This week is quite boring, living with 4 Germans -- they are actually very nice, but the problem is some of them not very good in English, so when they get together they "hablar en" German, not English....so, getting bored. Went out with them one nite, there are some nice pubs near the port, very fab.

The progress of Spanish is satisfactory, the teacher is good, with good classmates....again, mostly German. Yet, I´m going to live with a german girl next week, who used to live in London, hope can get better. Now can manage to understand some Spanish, but still not yet able to speak well.

Conquered quite a number of sights already, hehe. I like the buildings by Gaudi very much!!! and they got a very nice national museum. :) Still quite worried about not having enough euro, so keep using credit card everytime in supermarket, hehe. but the situation is better now, jsut the problem is things in barcelona is quite expensive -- not really cheaper than in Edinburgh, so looking forward to hv a better life in Andalucia.

Still really thanks to my flatmates...the first two days i just kept myself in my room in felt very unhappy and missing Edinburgh and UK (well, I´m missing Marks and Spencer!!= very much. now is much better after the night we went out. so....muchas gracious mi amigos.

DO write some emails to me when you have time my friends, i´m desperately looking forward to hearing from all of you :)
