This weekend was so much fun. Our new weapon of choice (Mom,you'll like this,I'm savng money) is 2 euro liter of wine, that comes in a carton. Literally, a carton like for milk. It is so dry, but it gets the job done. I have also startd a new love for Ouzo, the Greek drink. It tastes like black licorice (which, I hate black licorice, but I love Ouzo).
We went out Thursday to a bar called "Ice", which we have never been to, but everyone else abroad apparently had. Best part of that night was when the bartenders gave you plates to break on the ground...you can only imagine the field day I was having! Opa!! Fridy night we went to a salsa place! Josefina was so excited, and I loved it! Guys would just grab you and salsa, and yes, I'm a dancer, but I cannot figure out this salsa thing for the life of me! But the 3 euro tequila shots definitely helped...Afterwards we went to 8 Ball which is a dance club that doesn't open until later. It always plays the most random music! They played songs from "Grease" & the "YMCA", yet I still danced to it...embarrassing. Everyone in the study abroad group was very drunk there, and so funny to watch. The next morning we were going to go the White Tower museum with the rest of the study abroad group, that way we would have a tour guide, the Art History teacher at ACT. But, me, Emiy, Kosta, and Josefina were not up in time...whoops. It was so gorgeous out, we couldn't waste the day,so we went downtown to have a frappe by the waterfront (like true Greeks) and walk around. It was the most beautiful day, and I had such a great time, just talking and drinking some coffee with my parea (Greek for close friends). We walked all the way home from the center, which was about 40 minutes. I didn't mind, I loved just being out in the sun, FINALLY! Saturday, we went to Club Vogue, which is a club that we've been to a couple times. My first time was Valentine's day, and I don't remember much of it. Friday night was by far the most fun.
Sunday, today, we left a 9 am for Pozar Hot Springs. I didn't get home until 5 am, and then (like a dumbass) decided to eat and watch bridesmaids until 6 am. So, I was very tired, very hungover, on the bus ride (which was an hour and a half). It's alright, everyone was in their sweatpants. The hot springs had these gorgeous waterfalls, and one of them was naturally warm, it stays that temperature year-round. Supposedly, it's healing water. I hope so, because the other waterfall is FREEZING and we kept jumping back and forth from the hot to the cold, so hopefully I won't get sick!
The hot pool was full of gross, old, hairy men. A lot in speedos too....yeah if I had to look at it, I'm going to give you a mental picture, it's only fair. I was super grossed out, plus there were naked babies in there. Yuck. Then,we just laid in the sun for a bit and went out to eat. Here are some pictures of today:

My first Greek frappe, delicious.
Waterfall
We drank that whole liter of water...so hungover.
This waterfall was FREEZING!
I promise, I did go in he cold one....kinda.
The warm waterfall, that one was easy.
Tequila shots, I promise they weren't all for me mom.
I get so sleep-deprived over the weekends, we don't get home until 6 am or so, and I wake up around 11 to get my day going. Yet, I still decide to just go on facebook until 1 am (which is the time now) instead of sleeping...Oh well.
