This afternoon, after completing our Spanish finals, several of my friends and I went shopping. First we walked through the misting rain to downtown San Ramón and settled ourselves in a little coffee and pastry shop near the central church. We enjoyed fresh baked goods and warm coffee while watching the rain fall and people pass. Once we were warm and filled we began poking into little boutiques and thrift stores. The afternoon was delightful because the rain was light and none of us had a schedules to attend to. We lazily walked the streets and casually visited any stores of interest. One thing I love about San Ramón is that all the stores are small and unique - each one is like a like a little secret waiting to be explored. =)
I found myself a lovely pair of boots and, you guessed it, another dress. =)
(Check them out Mary! Love them or what?)
At five o'clock we walked to campus for our USAC biweekly soccer game. On Thursdays the games are played outside on a turf field no matter what the weather is doing. Hah! Today was no different. The whole time we played, the stadium was engulfed in a thick fog and light, misty rain kept us wet and cool. The exercise felt great and every game is a blast because all of us students get along so well. At six thirty we walked home with soggy shows, new bruises, and smiles.
