Promenade


Tiens, bonjour!
J'ai décidé de prendre une marche (oui oui je veux dire "je suis allée me promener!") le long de la Thamise aujourd'hui, histoire de me changer les idées. À force de passer tout son temps enfermée dans la bibliothèque à discuter de néolibéralisme, on oublie que  ça existe, du monde qui se moque de théories du développement et qui préfère aller se promener un jour de congé.



Il a fait un temps de canard ces temps ci. Imaginez ma surprise ce matin lorsque des rayons de soleil m'ont réveillée!! Il fait assez frisquet mais c'est une température idéale pour réviser en préparation des examens finaux.


I had a very busy and social week regardless of a strict study regime. We went to the London Philarmonic Orchestra on Wednesday; heard a fantastic pièce by the son-in-law of Dvorak, "Symphonie poétique" I think it was called. yesterday after my empteenth study group I invited two girl friends over to eat junk food and watch the "Rocky Horror Picture Show". I couldn`t believe that my film-studies-major friend hadn`t seen this cult classic - this is the girl who took  me to a Big Lebowski bowling night!!  Anyways today it had been back to the books, I`ve managed to write one summary and send a whole bunch of emails so I`d say it was a medium-productive day. (!)


Feeling a bit antsy and can`t wait for the exam period to be over - in 44 days to be exact, urgh. Ah well it is kinda exciting to be revising and realizing how much I`ve learned over the course of a year. Plus my study buddies are great fun and keep me from going nuts. I`ve booked my trip to Rome! and will try to cook up more interesting plans: once the sun shows its timid self I think i will be much more inspired to plan bike trips/adventures and what have you.
Bisous
