In just...
2.5 more days of classes.
4 more classes.
1 oral exam (which counts for 100% of my grade),
and 4 days
I will be in Menorca, the beautiful Balearic Isle known for beaches and relaxation. While not as big as Mallorca or as club/party-infested as Ibiza... I'm fairly confident we have made the right decision. Yes, we. EIGHT Gtown students (including myself) will be embarking on this adventure together, sharing one 3 bedroom apartment and 2 rental cars (with the obligatory European stick-shift, meaning I must drive and put my talents to good use).
Overall, I am pretty excited for this much needed break after one exam is out of the way and 4 more are coming in the exhaustingly long exam period of FOUR weeks. I did start a final countdown and it had dwindle to some 30-odd days until home, but I decided yesterday that instead of making me excited and providing light at the end of the tunnel, this just made my stay here drone on and on ever more slowly. So my new countdown looks more like the one you see above. Short-sighted, perhaps. Exciting, definitely.
On another note, Facebook has failed me and no longer allows you to view my pictures... as I'm sure you, my ever-so-loyal followers, have noticed. I tried to download a few to snapfish.com and after uploading 6 pictures in about half an hour, I had to admit defeat and give up... If I have time for procrastination in the 4 weeks to come, I will work on that. Otherwise, sadly, a personal slide show from my Mac when I arrive home will have to suffice.
Hopefully next time I post I will be able to report back with a tan and boring tales of lying on the beach all day... until then, saludos!
