I am back in Madrid for the second time, finally. I tried to run a few errands yesterday morning, such as go to the U.S. embassy to "register" as an American abroad, see my old host family, etc.
I even visited the university where I'll be studying here in about 2 weeks! A quaint looking building-- it's massive on the outside, slightly archaic on the inside. I'm still nervous about making Spanish friends. That will probably be one of the more challenging aspects of my stay in Spain this time around.
This morning I'll be off to church, where I'll hopefully meet the pastor who's agreed to put me up for the first semester in his appt. He lives over near Plaza de Castilla, and hopefully I'll get to see it and a few other apartments soon so I can go ahead and make a decision!
That's all for now. Keep checking back on this blog, and I'll do my best to post consistently with pictures!

DUDE! It's AWESOME to hear you are back in Spain! How was the summer? Hope you have a blast! (although from what you have told me about Spain that shouldn't be hard). Hope all is well.
