Today (Monday 10 am - 2 pm) was the first day of ILP classes, which are meant to prepare us for actual classes at the University of Barcelona. All of my professors are extremely energetic and enthusiastic, which is good because I was pretty sleepy. The day is broken up into 4 subjects: Conversation & Composition, Catalán, Culture, and Grammar. After class, some classmates and I headed over to Nuria, a restaurant. I enjoyed a bowl of spaghetti bolognese and assisted our table in sampling two bottles of different Spanish red wines.
We must have stayed in that restaurant for a good two hours, but we all had a nice time and enjoyed the leisurely experience that is the Spanish (/European?) meal.

Today (Tuesday), we had Conversation & Composition and then headed straight over to the Museum of History of Barcelona (Museu d'Historia de Barcelona), where we were able to see ancient Roman ruins as well as a glance of Medieval Barcelona.
Purchases for today: a black chiffon skirt and a ticket to see Diplo on Thursday, one free drink included (according to the website). I also began my search for an apartment, which was quite overwhelming. In the middle of communicating with people via calling and text, I ran out of phone minutes. So first stop tomorrow: movistar store!
