3UROTRIP 7/5

 granada spain


 - woke up at 10 am ate toast with not butter but jam this time, then me and ian took the metro to nevada shopping center. The metro was pretty cool and it was clean. The shopping mall was super big, we didn't even get to explore it all cuz we got there at like 11:40 or something and we had to leave at like 2:10 to get back to the homestay for lunch at 3pm. It's really big there's a lot left to explore and there's even an ikea in there. i bought a bag of the chips for 2 euros there.

 - ate lunch at 3pm (not gonna lie it was kinda bad today, the meat was just like dry)

 - then we chilled i did some duolingo and we left at like 5:30 to meet up with a friend adam to go to a bar to watch the spain vs. germany game at 6 pm. We went inside this guiness bar like an irish bar and there were SOOOO many people it was so hot so we went out and looked at other places and we found one outdoors that was pretty good and we watched the game

 - First half was rly bad, no one scored. But the second half Spain scored and that was super good but after they scored they just seemed kinda stressed and they gave Germany A LOT OF good looks. Germany had like 2 really open looks but missed both of them, then in like the 84th minute or something they have this crazy header tap back into a goal like what a beautiful play but how do they set that up and miss the most open looks. So it was 1-1 and it went to extra time.

 - In extra time there was a very obvious handball from spain and THEY DIDNT CALL it because maybe he was avoiding the ball or something ?? If I was a germany fam i would be so mad, but anyway it was the 119th minute and i was losing hope, getting ready for penalty kicks, but they were setting up a play and i see the ball get crossed towardst he goal and then i see a header AND THEN THE BALL GOES IN AND EVERYONE GOES CRAZYYYYYYY OMGGGGG

 - SO WITH 4 MINUTES OF ADDITIONAL TIME germany almost scored one time and like the refs wouldnt stop the game like literally it was 4:30 and they didnt stop it they let germany take it down and then a spain player got a red card which was deserved cuz that spain player literally assaulted the german LMAO he clocked him in the neck but anyway they shouldve ended the game 2 minutes ago but the game ends and SPAIN WINSSS WE ADVANCE TO THE SEMI FINALS

 - After the game we went back and it was already like 8:55 my homestay dad is super happy and we eat dinner which is ham and potatoes and cheese it was okay and we watch the france vs. portugal game which was 0-0 the entire game, france hit the crossbar on one of their attempts which was so close to going in and ronaldo played so bad he is so washed. And he went out kinda sad in the penalty kicks, imagine losing like that and ending off the euros like that. That must suck, but Ronaldo played so bad I don't feel too bad for him.

 - And then the rest is nighttime routine stuff here I am going to bed ok bye 

I think some photos did backup but no videos, idk why ill look into it tmrw if i remember i need to actually figure out the photos lma oh ALSO WHILE WATCHING THE GAME THIS HUGE GRASSHOPER LANDED ON MY SHOULDER OH MY GOD. THAT THING FREAKED ME OUT I SWIPED THAT SHT ON THE CHAIR AND LITERALLY IM SO TRAUMATIZED IVE NEVER SEEN A GRASSHOPPER THAT BIG BEFORE. And then this German lady nearby was like laughing and just nonchalantly poked that big thing away and it flew away like how are you not scared of that. Like I've seen praying mantis before and I'm ok but dude that grasshopper was so big. I will attach the photo of the grasshopper in a separate photo album so if you odn't want to see it then you don't. Because it is so big.


photo album (theres so many photos that didnt even back up)

Fire alarm in the dorm

  Something crazy, something memorable, and something hilarious happened yesterday.  So 11/6/23, let's do the typical day diary type stuff.  Here's what happened on November 6th  - It was a Monday, and usually I do push day on Mondays but I was super sore from running on Saturday and spending 3 hrs at the gym on Sunday playing basketball and doing pull day.   - So I woke up at 9:50 AM, got ready, and I didn't have a smoothie ready for this morning so I cut myself an apple and a banana and that was my breakfast. While this happened I checked canvas and my professor sent out an announcement that today's lecture was gonna be online again because she was still feeling sick.  - SO I took my lecture at my desk and it is harder to focus for sure but I still got it done because like she moves at a pretty fast pace in her lecture you always have to be on top of your game.  - After lecture, I think I chilled for a while and cubed a bit or something, but then I ordered grubhub to

casual productive tuesday + arian's slug story

 Today is Tuesday and here I am wrapping up how the day went. It was fairly uneventful I would say.   - Woke up at like 7:50 AM and got ready. I literally stopped telling myself to pull up to this class on time because there really is no need to and it feels so good to press that snooze button  - And so I went to my 8 AM class until 9:35 AM. I put in one earbud and litearlly finished my reading reflection due on Thursday during class which felt super satisfying. Literally that class is so soothing sometimes to do work because its just kids yapping making a nice environment for me to do work  - Then I went back to my room and did some cubing until around 10:50 AM  - Then I left at 10:50 AM cuz Jackson was coming back today at 11:20 AM and I don't wanna deal with his mom being in the room lol so I guess that means a very early lunch for me.  - After lunch I took a bike down to McHenry library. At this point it was like 12:00 PM. I stayed at the library for 2 hours where I wrote this

capitola on a peculiar saturday | DAY

10/21/23 DAY post So it's Saturday and I'm not home for the weekend. Let's run down what I did today, because it was quite a unique day.  - I wanna do a codeforces contest at 4 AM tomorrow  - Thus, I slept at 5 AM and woke up at 11 AM today, to kinda skew my sleep schedule or whatever  -  I went on like a bike ride and went to andres' room and went on omegle, thats how I killed the time to sleep at 5 AM  - So with the preface out of the way, let'st alk about today.  - SO 11 AM jackson's alarm woke me up, I was planning on waking up later but its whatever. He went home for the weekend.   - I drank a smoothie with strawberries, blueberries, and milk for breakfast. That stuff was pretty good tbh. I got a blender bottle and I have a code to the kitchen co-op so I use their blender to blend it, cuz the blender bottle cant blend strawberries cuz itsl iterally jsut a spring, it can only like mix soft things  - Then me, Raymon, Matthew, and Andres took an uber to Capito
