tropiaveraI am returned from a frozen land to another frozen land! I managed to escape all of the travel delays currently facing much of Europe, thank god, and found out this afternoon that I failed zero classes! Here are some other things I have done this week:
- went to several mid-size Scandanavian countries where I don't speak the language
- wore at least two layers of pants every day
- pondered the age old question when visiting dudes: should I borrow his Old Spice deodorant, or go without?
- remembered that vegetarianism in Europe is really never an easy task
- boggled continuously at Scandanavia's obsession with Texas (no, but seriously)
- didn't fall once on the ice despite zero roads and sidewalks being plowed
- watched some truly terrible subbed American television
- was, despite being in a country with six hours of daylight right now, by far the palest person I encountered
- wandered in an ill-advised fashion through a prison yard, an abandoned train yard, and a barracks (in my defense, we were lost [not a real defense])
- deeply regretted my choice in face soap
- took by far the nicest ferry I have ever encountered and felt like an enormous tourist since everyone else was like, "Ugh, I know, the commuter ferry is so terrible, want another beer?"
- arrived home and slept for seventeen hours
And that was most of my week! I realized I have forgotten what I do with my hands when I'm not under the thumb of school stress, so despite making vague plans to watch Nikita, Fringe, and Secret Garden, I have mostly been sitting around eating cookies, or which I now realize I have run out, so peace!
