winding down
i took this in london (houses of parliament) and for some reason feel like it adequately reflects the blurred nature of the past week and the week to come. george, george's brother, paul, abbey, becca and i made a last trip there yesterday and had a giant picnic in st. james' park and walked around one last time.
today we're going punting on the themes. the jcr committee planned this "pirate punting party". should be a good time, though when i get back i HAVE to write my paper so that tomorrow i can study, because allison (eriks' friend that's studying in england and coming to visit oxford for 2 days) is coming and then i have the test on thursday.
this week is my last in oxford, and between trying to get myself to do work, spending as much time as possible with friends, people visiting, figuring out how to pack everything, and planning for spain (at this point, it's 6 days in barcelona, 3 in bilbao and my friend fred, who is really nice, is going to come with me for the first half. i don't know him especially well, but he seems chill and has hung out A LOT with amanda (if you catch my drift...haha. sorry amanda, i love to tease you!) and she has only good things to say about him. in bilbao i'll be with berta, so i won't be completely alone during the trip, which is nice) and summer stuff it's going to be CRAZY! so i probably won't be online much and will have to update later. i hope that everyone is doing well and i'm certainly getting excited to see you soon!
