a haircut...in spanish

Well, I took the leap and got a trim today! I practiced what I was going to say about a million times: "Please, just cut the ends one inch. That is like two fingers. I am an American. No mullet, please. Thank you very much. No mullet." (but in Spanish, clearly.) The "mullet" is all the rage in Europe right now (now you wish you were all here!). I was terrified something would go wrong, a brain surgery would have been less frightening than my haircut today! But, in the end it all worked out. When I got back to the house I was having lunch with the roomies when my cell phone rang, it was my friends talking in English. My roomie asked in SPANISH who it was so I said "Oh, I can't really hear them but I think it's my friends because they're talking in English." About 30 seconds later I came out of my room to ask my roomie if I had said that in English. Yup! Awesome. At least I asked for naked milk in Spanish!

In other news, I bought my first pair of skinny jeans. I caved and I just lost like 8 friends because of it. I got sick of standing out in Spain so I'm trying to "blend". That's the excuse I'm using, anyways. They're from Penelope Cruz's store, Mango, because you know what they say "when in Spain....."

Funny story #something: I'm taking Capoeira. Youtube it and then you'll see why this is so funny.

  1. Ok, I'm dying about the mullets because it's one of my worries too. That's why I shave my kids heads! Anyways, I got the second worst thing, next to a mullet. She gave me a REVERSE mullet! I was in tears! It's better now!
