Spanish Birthdays and Karaoke


Today was the birthday party for my friend Maria, whom I play volleyball with. The party was at Sara and Maria's apartment, and as usual, I was the only American with a bunch of Spanish volleyball-playing girls. They had a delicious array of Spanish tapas and vino...not to mention the best chocolate tarta (torte) that I have ever eaten. After eating, drinking, and singing "Feliz Cumpleanos", a lively round of Spanish karaoke ensued (a small shout-out to my family: it made me think of you! You would have loved it!). Most of the songs were in Spanish, but every time an English song was chosen, the girls thought it was only appropriate that I sing. The best for me, however, was to listen to them sing in English...it was classic!
