20-some days

Here I am, left with 20some days until I come home. I've been texting Ang a lot, on g-mail. Gmail is wonderful. Exam on Tuesday. Oxford that weekend. I think I'm doing a 5k! I'll post the link here:

Tuesday, May 12, 2009

I haven't blogged for awhile and I figured that now would be a good time to get back into it. It's about to be May 13th, i.e. exactly a month until I go back to little old Levittown. Even though time has gone by fast, it's only because of all of the things I have done here. I'm slightly nervous to go back, because a lot has changed and so have I. Not in a worse sense, but a greater sense. In the process, I haven't been driving, I don't drink Gatorade, and I didn't have a job. Those life necessities are going to be interesting to come back to and start right away. I'm excited to come back to see my family and friends, and continue my new life started here at home. I'm just about a senior in college, and that's a really strange idea for me.

I'm missing Phillies games and the end of finals at home, but I don't really mind. The weather is getting nice here and I'm almost ready to start enjoying my last month in Swansea. I'll be going to Oxford again one more time, to break up my time between here and home. There is a lot in Swansea that I have yet to see and I'm ready to do so. Maybe even travel to northern Wales.

I'm handing in my final essay tomorrow, then I have an exam on May 26th. Other than this I am free to finally relax, although I think the idea of "relaxing" while abroad is somewhat different than at home. Because really, it's not relaxing at all.

I moved all of my things and am settled in a really nice room now. Other than people slamming the doors at every hour, it's a nice place.

Bye Loves :)
