It's test time in Spain. This week and next I have a few exams to prepare for, so I thought why not talk about my typical week in murcia and typical day of school.
Wake up around 7:30 to 8 to make a quick breakfast, pop in my headphones, and start my 15minute walk to the tarnvia. It's the nicer form of transportation, compared to the bus. On the 9 am tram, we're usually packed in there like sardines . Takes another 20 minutes to get to Campus. Campus is in Espinardo, similar to a suburb of Murcia. My faculty (building with my classes) sits at the top of the hill up a path or beautiful palm trees. My classes are the fifth floor, at the top with the perfect view of Espinardo.
Classes are some tight quarters. I squeeze into the tiny rows and
wait for the teacher to come to class. Unlike the states, the teachers rotate,
not the students. And speaking of students, they all wait outside till the
teacher enters. They stay away from it like it's something vulgar. The
schedule may say 9:30, but it really starts ten minutes after (9:40) and even
then students will walk in late. Although sometimes you'll be turned away for
tardiness (and there have been some interesting instances where this occurred).
My class mates are young, and not respectful toward the professors. It's
annoying to be among such immaturity, but things are slightly improving as the
term goes on and stop attending class ;).
So what do I do after school?
