Happy Weekend, Everyone! Thanks to some sort of bank holiday on Monday (still not quite sure what we were celebrating), all my classes for the week were today. I was in the same classroom from 9 to 5 for back-to-back lectures. Thank goodness that's over with. Things are going alright. We are starting to work on final assignments and exam preparations, which is terrifying and exciting at the same time. Amidst all the work, this week I went to my first Ceilidh (okay Isaac and Leah, you can stop cheering now), which for those who don't know is like Scottish square dancing. A very sweet older doctor in my programme helped organize it as a fund-raiser for building a school in a village we visited in Kenya. He's also in the band that played that night, aptly named 'No Mean Feet'. Cleverrrrrr...
I also went to small group at my friend Sarah's house. The last time we met there, I noticed that her neighbours had a rather oddly shaped bush around their house. Thanks to DST, this week it was actually light enough to see it properly, and it is indeed a bush in the shape of a caterpillar. I could hardly contain myself. I took a picture for you all to witness the wonder.
The weather has been completely erratic lately. During one lecture today, it rained and shined and rained and shine probably 6 times. Every time the sun's out, all these news stories pop up about how England's going through a drought because it's had so little rain this year, and every time it starts to rain, all these claims that we're in for a national flood warning crop up. I'm so confused. In spite of all this, things are green and the sky has been nice lately.
Miss you all. Will write more soon.
