It’s my second full day in Barcelona. Today, I went with my roommate to this area called Born. It was so beautiful, I wish I remembered to bring my camera. Even though I am seeing really amazing things, it’s still difficult for me to get used to being here. I feel like I’ve been thrown into a huge, confusing place, where I don’t know anyone or anything and cannot understand anything people are saying. It makes me long for home, but I know that most people feel like this in the beginning of studying abroad. Today, I felt so worried all of a sudden that I would never be able to learn Spanish and that I’d never be able to see all the things I want to see. But I think I need to stop worrying. I have always worried about pointless things my whole life and I think it’s time to stop. I’m in a beautiful city, surrounded by incredible people and new things. Whatever happens is going to be an adventure, an experience that it completely my own, so there’s no reason to worry.
