Up up and away!

In 3.5 hours I will be frantically moving around my room. My alarm clock will have just gone off and I will be quickly putting together my last few things. My train for London leaves 6:15 AM. I'll have just Saturday in the city and on Sunday I'm off to Seville! I am so excited about my trip. I have up until Munich booked (April 7). The rest I shall decide as I get further along in my journey. GoodNight!

Feelings of Home

There is a group on my schools facebook named, I have major ADD and narcolepsy when it comes to studying. I think I should join it. I went to the library today for maybe the 4th time since I've been here. I spent a good 1.5 hours locating 3 books, 2 of which are due in another 30 min. (They are on reserve here because they are 'high demand'. I'm still trying to decide if I want to hike back over to the library to return them or just pay the fine for the convience of sitting in my room). I say ADD becasue the thought came to me while reading about the staple crops of prehistoric europe, "wow, I almost feel like I could be in my room at home right now". The clouds have parted and a major ray of sun is shinning through my window. I can feel it on my face and I almost have to squint my eye. To my South Florida peeps who are thinking, "yeah, and??" the sun here is a big deal to me. And with the heat on to the max its feeling really good here.

I went out to Stereo last night with the Wheaton group-- Julie, Nick, Jamie, and Alex-- as well as Heidi, Liz, Laura, Chris and Jo. But before Stereo I did some major celidih dancing. Today for St. Pat's Jo is having pregaming in her flat. Not sure if I will go yet. My sister arrives here tomorrow so I gotta do some major room cleaning!

For now...

Hi There!

Well, those who know me know it takes me forever to do something and this blog is no exception-- just over 2 months after arriving in Edinburgh! I have to lot to catch up on. I really wanted to start this blog now as I will be leaving for my travels throughout Europe next Saturday! Gosh, I can't even believe it will be next week. I feel like I have settled in here and now it will be so sad that the semester is coming to an end. Even though I will be here until May, I am not sure how much of everyone I will see after the 24th since we are all going to different places. I know that I don't want to get home and miss Edinburgh so whenever I am outside constantly tell myself, I'm walkin Edinburgh Scotland. I love this place. I just made myself cup of coffee (the first one I've had since coming here! so many new things today!) because my class starts in 10 min and I last about 10 min before I'm fast asleep. 4:49 pm
