Hello all. So, despite promising cool photos...I have none. I was planning on doing the Skyline walk, but I was feeling much worse today so I decided to save my energy, write my proposal early and get lots of rest. It's already going to be kind of icky traveling to France while I'm sick so I'd like to not make it any worse. But I did manage to steal some photos from someone that went on the walk to give you guys a bit of an idea of Bath.
Today was pretty typical. Lectures in Jane Austen and then for Sherlock Holmes we had a student presentation for an hour (I already did mine) and the second hour we watched "The Spider Woman"...again. She has had us watch two movies twice over so that we remember things if we choose to write on them for our final paper. But, goodness...it's tedious to watch those things more than once. I met with Dr. Brown briefly after just to verify my topic for my paper (she approved it yesterday) and today she said it wouldn't work. She basically was wanting me to have a topic for analysis that was completely contradictory when coupled with the message behind my "lost" chapter. So I was a tad bit frustrated and decided to scrap that idea because it'd be too much of a headache and start fresh. Hopefully she will understand THIS topic...
So tomorrow I leave for France. Our train is set to leave at 4:13 where we will get another train, the Heathrow Rail, which takes us straight to our terminal. Best part: no checked luggage. Hallelujah!
Glad the headache of trying to figure everything out with this trip is over- knock on wood. I actually am getting out of class 40 mins early so I can make that train. Otherwise the other trains would get us to Heathrow too late for our flight. I'm really only missing a movie which is no big deal to me.
I am not bringing my laptop this weekend, but I will bring something to journal in so I can just blog about it all when I get back. I'm sure I'll come back with some pretty photos and good stories. Not to mention, stronger muscles from walking. I'm going to try to keep in mind that I'm sick and should not be pushing it too much while I'm there, but there is a whole lot to see. Kind of ready to be coming home now though. It'd be nice if I could do this France trip and then be leaving to come home Tuesday of next week. Oh wells.
Sorry this is short- I want to go to bed! Yep, at 9:30 p.m.
xox
Ohhhh Sweetie, I wish I could take the sickies away! :(
ReplyDeleteI so dislike you going to Paris while not well. Actually, I'm a tad nervous about you going to Paris anyway, but not well???? Ugh! I'm sure you will love the "City of Lights" despite the cold or whatever you have. REST!!! Don't forget that Paris will be there the next time you cross the pond!
Hope you slept well and that there was a cool period overnight!
Let us know when you get to Paris! Be safe and God bless you!
Love you,
Mom and Dad
