So, after biting my nails for a week and probably complaining to too many friends, I got my housing assignment for Granada today! I will be living, along with another IES student, with Hortensia Peñarocha Mingorance, who lives in the old Jewish neighborhood in Granada with her cat. Barring a massive power struggle between the cat and me (which, historically, has been problematic, since cats tend to dislike me and I tend to be equally wary), I am really excited to meet my señora and my roommate and see the area. I did some investigating on GoogleMaps (the best website ever!!) and it looks like I'll only be about a 10-15 minute walk to the IES center, where I'll be taking most of my classes, and am not too much farther from the Universidad de Granada.
That's pretty much the only update I have, other than the fact that I am leaving in five days (yikes!) and am equally excited and freaking out. I have internet access at la casa, so I'll post another update when I'm actually in Spain and not in Maine.
