July 22nd
Well this diary is for yesterday´s story...
Well lots of people asked me ¨what happened to you!¨ and with a surprising, caring, frown face...ok...sorry guys, I ´m not making fun of you, but since I´ve been asked the same question many times, I found my answer is getting more concise with detailed description...:) Here it is what I usually answer: I twisted my foot when trying to run in my high heels chasing after the bus on my way to work.
To get some funny aspect, I prefer adding some background such as you know...I´ve weared the same flat shoes for several days, and just exactly that day, I decide to wear the high heel one for a change...
Well, seriously I´ve been running in high heels many times...nothing happened.
Now some sad part, when I found out I couldn´t walk after i twisted the foot, I was really getting nervous, sitting at the bus station, trying to call my boss and my colleague, my tears just couldn´t stop falling...You can imagine how bad you feel that you couldn´t move a step towards your home which is probably only 50 meters away...
So I kept sitting on the bench of the bus stop, letting the tears falling down, waiting for my colleague...who took longer than usually it takes to find me...I saw her finally, at that time, she was like an angel, really, an angel...Alba...she used to be a dancer and she is so slim, but she actually managed to put me into the cab, later on in the hospital, put me into the wheelchair, and pushed me and the wheelchair across the street...and all the way inside the hospital...she was there for me...
I used to hear lots of bad things about public hospital of Spain, but that day, I barely waited for anything, when people knew I´m a foreigner and don´t speak Spanish, they seemed to be very patient with me and nice.....
There are time four doctors discussing about my x'ray, and I knew they were talking about me, for instance, some would talk and look at me,,and talk again...that was the only time I felt a little bit stupid not able to understand what they were talking...but was fine, I hope soon I ´ll figure out some practical solution of how to deal with my class...
Anyway I´m looking forward to going to my host family...where there are host father Javier, mother Rosa, sister Paula and brothers Alex, Jose, Lucas, and a Brazilian aunt...:) actually not bad at all!

Diary of her mastress´ white leg (1)
July 23rd
I had an absolutely fun time after breaking my foot...after coming to Spain most of my days are gray, not because people are bad, it is just because of social, cultural differences, language problems, tough studies, and working cultures....I had difficult adaptation time here...
But it seems my bad days are gone...I have never felt so much taken care of, and my happiness come back, like the bird...I can just be myself, no worries about work, social life, money, eating...
It reminds me one of my colleague´s saying...when u need something, you ask, then when u r asked to give, you give...
I´m full of love now...I want to give the love back one day...
Ok¨here is my menu today:
Breakfast: cereal, milk, with pear by Parveen-----really healthy...and sweet
Lunch: Toasted bread with potato inside, with ketch up, and i was amazed at the way she made the chocolate milk shake by Dyvia
Dinner: fresh vegetables with tomato, pasta with cheese inside by Laurence, secret iced tea by Jessica. Jessica bitched a lot about some colleague sitting in front of her, well, I had fun just bitching together with her...and her dad´s expericnes of breaking arms...Laurence told me stories about her dad´s stories breaking two legs....
Well, it seems many people have to break their legs or arms once in a while during their lives...well I´ve got mine...and luckily not a serious one....
I also had a nice injection by Capal, he studied my x`ray...and confirmed with me it is just a small fracture...jajajaja
I also had calls from Yanire, who told me how she took advantage of breaking+foot days to write a book...and i can do many things...
call from Geoffroy that i should paint my while leg with style....:)
call from Paula that I confirmed with her I´ll have chance sitting in the wheel chair ...:) and nice to know her mother´s friend is willing to take care of me as well....woooooooo, I feel like a popular star now...yes...i m now her master´s white leg...
of course, call from Sugata...but now she is having fun in her boss´s party...i wish her black dress with yellow flower wont drop...jejeje
Ok, enough of writing...tomorrow I´ll figure out how to tell the story in a bright manner to my parents...should be ok now...
