The first week of classes is over at 4:20 today and I'm thrilled...three day weekends=amazing, and I might have someone to go to Belgium with me. And..I met a kid who looks exactly like Donovan, only his name is Edward. It's been crazy.
I dropped by Art History class for starters, so now I'm only taking 12 credits, and I couldn't be happier. All of my classes for some reason are writing heavy, which sucks, and my Art one was as well, but since I won't be getting credit for it and it was focusing on only architecture (which I do like, don't get me wrong), it had more of a chance of hurting my gpa, than helping it...so it's been dropped.
We went on a trip with my Medieval/Renaissance authors class yesterday and I got to talk a lot with Matt and Edward- two very awesome boys. Matt might come with me to Belgium and Edward is also a creative writing major, so we can chat and what not and it's great...a lot of walking too. Again, I have photos but they aren't up on line yet, and I will post a few as soon as possible. xD
And, I don't think I mentioned here, but I really want to go to Belgium...in particular Gheel...where there is a shrine to my patron saint- Saint Dymphna. I wouldn't mind going to Antwerp either..or Brussels...you know, I need more places to add to my facebook map. Hah. ¬shifty eyes¬
I have plans to hang out with this boyo named Nico on Saturday. He's from South Africa and he's adorable, so I hope we have fun and I hope they don't fall through. My plans with Pete have fallen through several times, but I'm sure it will smooth out..I believe I'm going to a show with him next weekend.
I've also decided this trip will help me get back on track with some things...like eating. I've been cooking in the flat nearly everyday...I've eaten out twice since I've been here..one time couldn't be helped...and I've been eating whole wheat pasta and cooking my own chicken and what not....and I've only had soda (sprite) twice...and well, with all the walking, I'm bound to lose as much as I lost first semester, at the least...if not more. But aside from that, my eating habits will have changed which is good. ¬nods¬
So yes, all is well here...I have my last class of the week at 3 today and than maybe going out drinking with le flat mates? No clue...either way....I won't let this be another early night. xD
