So we have officially reached the halfway mark of the program, which kind of blows. It's been a busy 2 weeks. Papers, reports, outings, hospital visits. So much to do, so little time.
Last week passed without any incidents. Our play got cancelled due a cast members sickness. We were all very happy about this because we were all kind of dragging. It's been rescheduled to the busy month of November. On the weekend, I took Friday off and just read and relaxed. At night we went out to dinner and had Chinese food. Unfortunately since I took Friday off, Saturday and Sunday were devoted to homework and papers. I managed to get my history, film, and culture papers done by Sunday so I wouldn't have to do any work this week but attend class. Which was a good thing.
Though I am not in America, I keep aware of the American politics. And let me tell you, I have never supported Obama's universal health care more, after experiencing the U.K's firsthand. On Tuesday, I got to spend 3 hours in the hospital waiting room. Don't worry though, I am OK. It seems I have low blood sugar mixed with exhaustion. I have been resting up lots. I refuse to be sick before break!!!!
I know you are all dying to know where I am going for break. So drum roll please... SPAIN!!! Yup Yup I plan to spend 6 lovely days in warm Spain (70 degree weather!). My roommate and I are all packed and ready to get on that plane tomorrow!!! I will attempt to use my limited knowledge of the Spanish language to get us around. In 4 years, you would think I have learned some Spanish but you would be wrong. Just ask Lisa! Don't worry, I am armed with a Spanish phrasebook, my travel book, and the directions to our hostel.
OK I need to double check my suitcase and make sure I don't forget anything. Look for all my great pics sometime at the beginning of November.
Much love,
KP
