Days 119-121:
On Friday
the 17th of December, we had our final English exam, with an oral and a written
part. It was long but we all passed, the title we received is an equivalent of
B2 level (upper-intermediate). It wasn't bad, but the funniest part came after the exam, when
we gave a present to our dear teacher Katie (fabulous educator, I wish all of our Spanish
teachers were so good and passionate…). After that, we went to a nearby Ugo (pizzeria) to have
lunch all the class together. It was our farewell with all this great guys.
That night, with 10 grades below zero, we went to Bizarro club with Adri,
Josemi, Sofia and Des.

On Saturday, Adri, Monroy and me met with Rosi and Mila to go to Borovets, all
together in Rosi’s car. She drives fast. Really fast. And road conditions were
not the best (ice, snow…), so the trip wasn’t precisely boring. At around 11 AM we
arrived there and rented the snowboards and boots. Both things, plus 1-day
forfeit for the incredible price of… 16 € per person! The price was really low
because it was the official opening day for the new season. But in the negative side,
half of the tracks were closed and only a few greens and reds were available.
We started with the (too) easy green tracks to warm up. But soon we felt that
was not enough for us, so we took the lift to the highest station of Borovets. The
views from there were fantastic, nevertheless the wind was furious and the
temperature too cold, so the snow were really hard and icy. –Ok, who goes
first?? ...

We did
several times the longest red track, with enormous problems avoiding the rest
of experienced snowboarders who were overtaking us for both sides. The ride was as
hard as the fucking snow below us, we fell off the board many times, our asses
could ratify it. It was my fifth or sixth time snowboarding, and was the
toughest one. At the end of the session, Rossi and Mila were waiting for us to
drink that typical bloody hot wine, not bad, not bad… The way back home was
even more terrific than the outward journey... The ice and snow mixed with the
darkness and speed, yeah, Rositza for F1!

| Our collection in Pacas and Monroy's place, simply ridiculous! |

| This party was also ridiculous!!! :) |
Ronnie was
waiting for us at 9 that night, for our farewell party. We took a big pack of
beers and went to Malaga’s flat and later to Rock’n’rolla. Great party there,
that place is fucking killer! Later, when I tried to enter to my flat... shit! The door was broken (and also my hand 10 minutes later). It was around 6:30 AM and quite cold, so finally we went to sleep all together at Monroy’s flat. We went to
Pacas’ room, he was there with no signals of life, absolutely unconscious. Apparently, he had several problems arriving home… “Dubré” (Monroy and Pacas’ landlord) came the
next morning to check the flat and we all woke up then… That night, once
recovered, I was invited by Didka’s mother to have dinner in their place. I was
really pleased to do it, they had been incredibly warm all this months. I felt
like at home with them, lovely people! By the way, thefood was delicious!!
