Everything here is going pretty well, although I have had the stomach flu (or something like that) for about three weeks. UGH. On top of that it started raining today. I guess Spain needs the rain, but it sure does put a damper on things... Just last week it was about 70 degrees!
I am enjoying Sevilla much more than last semester. My cousin is doing a studying abroad program here as well, and living in Triana. I have been able to spend some time with her and it has been great to catch up. I am liking my classes so far, all five of them. I have been able to get to know a few of my professors quite well, and I get sad thinking that in less than three months I will be leaving them.
On a happier note, I am taking sevillanas classes!! Sevillanas is the type of flamenco that they dance at the Feria. It's really fun, although I am super bad at it. Speaking of Feria, I am sitting at my house looking out right now as the Feria grounds are slowly being transformed from a bunch of cement, to magnificent fair grounds. They are constructing the "door" as I am writing. What a view!
Last weekend was Carnival in Cadiz. Of course I got dressed up for that; I recycled my Halloween costume, and lo and behold, it was a hit again! I can't tell you how many times the Spaniards broke out in their "Yo soy espanol, espanol, espanol!" song.
If you have a moment or two, check out the site for the magazine I wrote for last semester... My article is the one with the Golden Gate Bridge picture... (I think it's number 4)

News from Mt. Holyoke: Our president, Joanne "JoJo" Creighton is stepping down in June of 2010 after what will be a 15 year presidency. I'm still not too sure what to think of this.
http://www.mtholyoke.edu/offices/comm/pres/president.html
She has brought Mt. Holyoke so far in such a short amount of time, and has truly been an amazing leader. Although I will graduate when she is about ready to step down, her leaving Mt. Holyoke is going to play a huge part in the college's coming years.
I just added a few photos from Winter Break to my flickr account, which you can find on the right side of the screen. Sorry the photos are out of order... There are some from Inauguration and a few from London. I haven't really taken too many pictures yet in Spain.
Hasta luego!

A quick stop in London, and then back to Sevilla
After about six weeks in the States, I headed back to Europe. On Monday, February 3rd I arrived in London to visit Trisha for a few days. It had snowed the day before I got there, so everything was covered in slush - and I thought I had left New England!? Since it was so cold and wet, we went to the movies the first day I got there. The next two days we did some site-seeing with two of Trisha's flatmates, Devon and Ollie. We went to the National Gallery, the National Portrait Gallery, St. Martin-in-the-Fields, the British Library, and the British Museum. We all cooked dinner together the first two nights. The last night we went out to eat after going to see a show. We saw "Avenue Q" and it was hysterical! I quite enjoyed it. It was a great way to spend the last night in London.
On Friday I flew out of Heathrow to Madrid and then on to Sevilla. The flight from Madrid was delayed for a few hours, but I made the best of it. A very nice lady from Sevilla who now lives in Belgium basically adopted me for the remained of the journey and helped figure out what was going on with the delay. It turned out that our flight crew was still in Italy when we were supposed to be leaving, and so Iberia flew an empty plane up from Valencia to Madrid so that they wouldn't have to cancel the flight. They also fed us, which was great. I met a very, very nice older couple from Michigan who are staying in Sevilla for two weeks. We got to chatting (of course, it is me we're talking about) and then decided to go out to dinner in Sevilla. On Saturday night Grace and I met up with Bev and Jim and took them to a local favorite, Coloniales, for tapas. We had a great time! They used to import French wine, so they gave us an entire lesson on wine-tasting and some other great tips. We are hoping to meet up with them again before the leave.
As you have gathered, I made it back to Sevilla in one piece. Classes have started again, and I think I am really going to like all of them. I am taking:
-Novel and Cinema
-Contemporary Spanish Literature
-Social Justice and Community Service Practicum
-Methodology of Teachind Spanish as a Second Language
-Contemporary Latin-American Poetry
I realized how familiar I am with Sevilla now; the city has lost its "Spain" smell. Sometimes I have to remind myself that I am in a different country; it just feels as if I am away from home, but no longer foreign. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing, but it is something I have noticed.
The weather here is beautiful. It's about 60 degrees! It feels as if Spring has already arrived. From my house I can see that they are beginning to prepare for feria, a huge festival the last week in April. The building I live in looks out on the grounds where the week-long event will be held. It seems that there is much to look forward to this semester.
Many wishes to you, wherever in the world you might be!

Mt. Holyoke
Now that I have been on campus a few days, I am feeling a lot more relaxed. Today I met with the teacher's licensure program coordinator and she approved a class for me to take in Spain that will count for my licensure: Methodology of Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language. I'm glad because it will be the one class that is useful for me this semester since I have pretty much finished all my other credits that I need.
I also met with my Spanish professor and we talked about possibly doing a thesis. I was so convinced I was not going to do one, and now it seems like I am set up to start doing research soon! I have two main topics right now, both dealing with gender and power dynamics. The one I am going to try to do is looking at a Spanish short story that is based on a French short story which is based on an Italian short story! (Fewf, that's a lot to handle!) So my research would be in the three languages, truly a Romance Languages and Literature thesis, but the final paper would just be in Spanish. We're looking at about 100 pages. In case that doesn't go anywhere, I am leaving the idea from my seminar last semester on back burner. In that case I would be looking at gendered-violence again, a topic which I find very interesting.
We shall see what happens, but I will be starting to prepare for this during the coming semester, as well as taking five classes in Spain.
Wish me luck.

Return to the Homeland!
It's been a while and I thought I should probably give an update of everything that has been going on the past month and a half....
After twenty-six hours of traveling, I arrived safe and sound back in good ol' Brisbane. I have never been so happy to return to the Bay Area. We flew in over San Francisco and it was a beautiful day. I realized how much I love where I live and how important it is to me. It was great to see all my family and friends again. I even got a chance to see Hannah Waen, a friend from Mt. Holyoke, a few times. My neighbor, Hannah Williams, and I spent quite a bit of time together. On Christmas morning we kept our ritual alive and visited each other's homes and families. It was a nice reminder of the community and all the I had left behind when I left for Spain. A few days after Christmas my professor came to San Francisco for the MLA Conference; we went out for coffee and walked around the city a bit. It was so nice to see her. I often feel very torn, due to living two lives, one in Brisbane and one in Massachusetts, and when there is a time when those two worlds can meet, I feel whole. It was great to be able to have that once again.
After a month at home with family and loved ones, I sadly packed my bags again. I was dreading leaving this time, not wanting to return to Spain. On January 15th I took off for Mt. Holyoke. As we pulled up to campus I felt that I was home again; returning to this other home has brought me great joy. I had missed it so, so much; even the seven degree weather was oddly comforting. I walked around campus feeling like for once I was in the right place; this is where I am supposed to be. The buildings stand out against the white snow, giving the campus a pristine look. I walked into the library and the familiar smell of it made me smile. I headed over to the new dorm; it's beautiful. It still feels a bit hotel like in the inside, but it is a truly magnificent building. I ran into a few friends whom I thought I was not going to see until September, which was a great surprise.
At six o'clock, Ashley, Stefan, Emily and I packed up our things and hit the road to Washington DC. We arrived around two in the morning at our friend's house in Virginia. Saturday we went into DC and did some touristy things. On Sunday we went to the "We Are One" concert, which was the highlight of the weekend. The line-up was amazing, and everyone was in high spirits. We stood amongst 600,000 people looking towards the steps of the Lincoln Memorial while star after star appeared on the stage to perform and speak. President Obama and Vice President Biden both spoke, while their families watched from the front row. It was truly an amazing experience and moved me quite a bit.
Monday was the National Day of Service in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday. My aunt Beth and I went to RFK Stadium to make care packages for the soldiers serving across the globe. It was so well organized and tons of fun. There were thousands of volunteers at just this event! It made me so happy to see people of every kind gathering together for a common good. In the midst of all the work, cheers erupted as First Lady Michelle Obama arrived at the event. We were able to get a few photos of her, and were about twenty feet away from her!! She stayed to help out for about an hour or so, which was really great. Also attending the event was President Obama's step-grandmother. I snapped a photo of her as well. The service event was probably one of the best moments of the weekend. It was so fun and exciting, and the fact that Michelle was there really topped it off.
Tuesday was the big day: the Inauguration of the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama. We left around 7:30am and eventually got to the Mall at about 10:40am. It was hectic getting in, but so worth it. Beth and I did not have tickets, which ended up being the better option. We stood on the side of the Mall between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial, with a clear view of the White House. It was so awesome because we could see the moving trucks outside getting ready to move all of Bush's stuff out and President Obama's stuff in. We had a clear view of a megatron and could hear just fine. It was a great day in American history. After the ceremony we eventually went back to Virginia. We left around 6:45pm and arrived at Mount Holyoke around 2:30am. We were exhausted, but it was well worth it.
Yesterday I met with Anita, the Catholic Chaplin, and we talked for almost four hours! It was great to catch up on everything this past semester. We went to lunch in Prospect, and I pleasantly discovered that my OneCard works - free food!! I have been craving Mt. Holyoke food since I arrived in Spain, so it's really nice to be able to eat here again. You really don't realize how great it is and how much you miss it until you have to eat only one type of food every single day for four months. My goal is to have a different item every day while I am here.
As a sidenote, Skype just might be one of the best things ever created. It's amazing how you can be on the other side of the world from your close friends, and yet feel as if you are sitting in the same room. I was able to talk to the Nash twins, Julia and Claire today for about an hour and it was great! Mount Holyoke feels complete after seeing them on my computer screen while sitting on Ashley's couch in Mead. I also talked to Grace, who is still in Sevilla, and she gave me an update on everything there. It's so nice to have an opportunity to speak with friends. :)
Well, that's about all for now. I will try to put up pictures from Inauguaration, although I am sure you have all seen plenty by now. Much love to everyone, wherever in the world you are. My thoughts are with you.
Love always,
Emmalie

It's really December?
I'm in shock that it's actually December - where did the semester go?! I'll be heading home in a week and a half, on December 19th. I'm looking forward to it; I've had enough of Spain for now.
The weekend of November 21-23 I went with my interest group to Barcelona. We had a really great time. We visited Park Guell, la Sagrada Familia, some of Gaudi's houses, the wharf, las Ramblas, and much more! What a fun city. It was very interesting to me to hear and read Catalan everywhere we went. When speaking with the people from Sevilla, they argue that Catalan is just a dialect, but I would take the side of the Catalonians, that it is indeed a separate language. I'd love to study it some day...
For Thanksgiving weekend I fly up to London (with eight other CIEE students) to visit Trisha. Despite the rain we all enjoyed the trip. We saw Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Parliament, St. Paul's, Platform 9 3/4, the Globe Theatre, Millennium Bridge, Piccadilly Circus, Oxford Circus, Tower Bridge, the British Museum, and more. Quite an all-inclusive trip! I had a chance to see two of my cousins as well, Heidi and Carly. We decided to celebrate Thanksgiving on Saturday night, and we made a feast! I'm actually pretty proud of all of us - who knew thirty people under the age of twenty-two could throw together such a meal?! Everyone made a dish, and there was even a turkey!
December 4-8 is called Puente here in Spain, which is basically a long weekend. I've been taking advantage of it and started my final papers. So far I've finished a 10-pager, a 2-page reaction paper, and I am half way through another 10-pager. We've got loads of work in the next week and a half, so I am trying to get as much done each day as possible.
Back to my final papers. Can't wait to see all of you Californians soon! :)

Halloween, Obama, Cordoba, etc.
I suppose I owe you all an update... I'm getting behind on this blog thing!! Not too much has happened here in the past few weeks, but here are a few things of interest.
Halloween was great! I'd say about a third of Spaniards were dressed up, and of course, almost all the Americans. Being my creative costume self, I threw together a costume for less than 10 euro and called it: Super España!! I was pretty popular with the Spaniards when we went out; everyone saying, "Viva España!!" and things like that. Quite a fun night. There were a ton of little kids running around my building in costumes. Interesting cultural note: while in America we dress up in all sorts of costumes, in Spain they only dress up as scary things.
Elections: YAY OBAMA!!!!! I am so happy about the election news. I'd say the majority of students here voted absentee, which was good to hear. It's always uplifting to hear that youth are using their voices. While it was interesting to see how Spain reacted, I kind of wish I had been in the US to experience such a wonderfully historical moment. My favorite headline was, "Ya no es un sueño" (It is no longer a dream). Seeing the image of Jesse Jackson crying really touched my heart. I am trying to find a way to go to the Inauguration, but we will see.
This past weekend we went to Cordoba. It was amazing. We went to La Mezquita, and I am still in awe that I finally had a chance to see it. (There are pictures posted if you have no idea what I am talking about.) After hearing about it for so long and seeing photos in textbooks, it seemed unreal to be there. Grace and I spent the night in a hostel and went to the Alcázar the next day. It was beautiful, with gardens and fantasic architecture. If you're ever in Andalucía, Cordoba is definitely worth a visit.
I am writing an article (a "fiction" piece) for the student magazine that is published every semester called, "más+menos". I've never really had to write fiction, so it has been an interesting process. I met yesterday with my intercambio to have him translate the text. It will be out in December, so I'll try to bring a copy home with me.
One thing that I really miss from home is diverse foods. We attempted to find a good Mexican food place, and that semi-failed. The "best" restaurant in Sevilla for Mexican food is nothing like good ol' Mexican food from San Francisco. However, we did find a Chinese restaurant that is pretty good, so that will have to hold me over until December.
