Blurb...

Hello! :)

Well I hope you saw the pictures I put up yesterday. I went out to do so many little errands that I thought as I was going all over I should take my camera - and even remembered to! This week was surprisingly exhausting. I did a presentation on non-state agents of diplomacy where I focused mostly on the International Committee of the Red Cross. It wasn't too bad - but I think I sounded a little stupid! But it's over and that is all that matters. I have one presentation left and FOUR HUGE essays to write. I've really got to get writing. I'm also starting to learn polish - it is really hard but a great language. Too bad there are sounds that I swear my mouth will never be able to produce.

Last night was a wonderful night called bonfire night (aka Guy Fawke's night) so there were fire works going off everywhere. My roommates actually went out to a tiny village where they run around with burning tar barrels on their backs - and then have a huge bonfire at the end. I skipped this event but did enjoy my neighbourhood firework show. Go here to learn about it : it is really cool I promise!

The pictures from yesterday are just some more interesting things around the city. The old Danes Castle spot is actually really pretty - even though it isn't very big. My favourite picture though is probably the fire post or some of the views from campus. Hopefully I'll take some pictures of the other side of the hill on campus - so you can see where most people are - not just the really pretty side! :)

Have a wonderful weekend - tell me what you think and about life sometime!
