This week has been pretty tame for once haha. Monday everything was closed, so we just kinda hung out at home and did some reading and such for school. The girls and I went for an early dinner at our fave place, La Storia, and just had a relaxed day. Tuesday we went to Trieste (pictures below) with Hanna to pick up our visas/ spend the lovely day outside walking around. BUT when we finally found the slovenian consulate, it was "closed" even though a man let us in. Then he said we'd have to come back the next day at 9 am to get them. So we said, screw you (not actually) and left. We then had a wonderful lunch outside in the sun, I finally ate cevapcici! They were so yummy, but also pretty pricey...oh well. Then we walked around for a while and found an open air market which was really cool. Made it back to Koper around 6 pm and then went out to a bar called Bellavita for Marine's birthday (french girl)/ latin music night. We danced our asses off, it was good fun. They play such random music here...it was latin, and then a grease medley, and then a 50
s-60's jive/elvis medley...so strange, but hilariously fun.
Wednesday was another school-reading day, so I did that, and then met Hanna and Marie for a coffee (as per every afternoon), and then went to see the scottish boys' new room at Port. They got put in a room meant for disabled people, which, while hilarious, also makes me jealous because the bathroom is HUGE (aka wheelchair accessable). That night it was the French international evening, so we learned about France for a bit and then ate cheese and drank wine. num num num. Later that night we went out dancing, like we do almost every wednesday, but it was pretty dull this time so laura and I left early. Yesterday I finished up some reading for my meeting today and then sat in the sun for a bit in the backyard. We went out for dinner and I had the best carrot soup...it was soooo good. I think the goodness may have been enhanced by the fact that we ALWAYS get beef broth with noodles, so this carrot soup was a rare and wonderful treat. Then last night we went to the movies, as it seems to be our thursday ritual.
Today I sat in the backyard and tanned/read/got a little burnt and then had class. Must start writing my papers ASAP because I want to be done everything before I plan on going to Turkey at the end of may. Good luck brain, you will need it. Then I went and had my afternoon Bela Kava and plans for tonight are still up in the air. That's pretty much it for me, although I will be sending a package home soon, so family, be prepared for that!
