ONE MONTH to go

May 15, 2006 18:28

"this is the countdown"...
30 days till home. yea thats right ONE MONTH.
3 days until my first Final exam worth 100% and the last 4 months of my life
11 days until I get to visit lucy for BBQing and good old english bank holidaying
4 days till i see Da Vinci code movie w some exchanges
116 days. that's how long i've been here.

this is what i did in the last week:
- tried to study (in england its called doing revision, litterally they dont know what study means)
- saw the british movie Confetti. if you liked Dog Show (came out in the 90s) or biritsh humor go see it. i loved it. its a fake documentory about 3 insane weddings
- BBQed in the park with the internationals
- went to the "drunkeon" drunk lunch that the itnernational put on for us which invovled the shcool buying us hundreds of bottles of wine and english beer. no one does things liek manchester does them. but i think that's a good thing. esp when i watched 5 exchange kids pass out on benches around the school atrium. o then they made us fill out feedback forms. i think they thought if we were drunk we wouldnt hate on them. didn't work
- ate lotus buns at pan asian restaurant. i have gotten so mcuh better about trying new things (thanks english dinning hall food) but this was def for the better. most amazing creation ever, it pays to go with an asian...
- dinner with the exchanges and a nice walk around town after the drunkeon
- sutdied with 2 british firneds from one of my classes
- went ot Andrew's flat to go over human resource management. student flats here are much cooler than gville. makes me almost want to live here. almost
- ate at another indian curry mile restaurant with friends(u can never try to many, this is onyl my 3rd but there are over 500) Saanam. good place lots of Boli music and some indian party going on.
- went to the redbull promotional drink thing outside my dorm that they are running with games and obviously ppl drinking red bull in a big grey dome.. kinda weird actually
- and its back to walking in the rain. manchester has forfeuited springtime to revert back to constant rain and 40 degrees.
- o and faught a library attendent but thats a story for another time.

i would psot pictures here but it just took me an hour to post pictures on facebook. check them out if u like. some more of finton coming soon too actually.

okay even though everyone is on fsummer but me .. its back to work...xox
