Studying and pulling all-nighters

It's been really busy this last week with finals coming around the corner, presentations to complete for classes and things to do before we leave Sevilla. Kelsey and I have been studying and working on papers like crazy people and decided we needed a little break this weekend.

We've seen and heard that Spaniards stay out much longer than people do in the U.S. when we party and have even heard they can stay out until the sun comes up. We've had our fair share of long nights but have never actually seen the sun come up before we head home. This time would be different.

We went to a really great dance place that is 3 floors tall and has an amazing outside terrace. The place was packed but we were having an awesome time dancing and laughing with our group of about 8 friends. We were determined to make it until sunrise but Kelsey and I started placing bets on who would actually make it all the way. As the night wore on our group of determined dancers started to dwindle and we were left with only 4: David, Chuck, Kelsey and I. 

     Also I got another haircut. It's getting really hot here 

After leaving the club at around 5:00am we tried to find a place to get churros (our favorite after party snack.) The place we found actually said that they don't open until 9:00am but none of us could make it that long into the morning. We walked by a Dunkin Donuts that also wasn't open yet but they had a huge stack of donuts outside the store. We didn't know if they were fresh donuts being brought in or old donuts being taken out, but we took one anyways. It turns out that they were old ones being taken out. We could tell by the taste and staleness of it. 

Later on our walk home David found a hub cap on the side of the road and as the scholarly man he is exclaimed, "Guys, I found a hub cap!" We continued walking until we reached our apartment and had to go our separate ways. We took a picture of ourselves with the light of morning starting to show and our smiling faces as we had just conquered the night. It was 7:30am when we finally got inside and went to bed. Our favorite part of the night was seeing some people waking up early to go to work or go for a run in the morning and we were walking home from a long night partying. 

That's the story of my all-nighter in Sevilla. Now to get back to the real work ad studying. Adios!
