It's Easter! Since I just ate a butt load of food, I will do a quick recap of my week and then take a nap!
Last weekend was pretty chill...my fellow canadians got back from their road trip in Croatia/Bosnia so we just kinda hung out at home, they showed me pictures, etc etc. Sunday I went to palm sunday mass at the church and then just did some homework (you're shocked, I know)and then later went out for a pint with some of the guys.
Monday I had a meeting with my prof and she gave me some more ideas about which direction to take for my essay, and then recommended some more books, so I have an ass load of reading to do in the next while. On top of that, I still have to decide on my essay topic for my other class, and since I was sick on Friday when the others went to Ljub. to see him, I have yet to confirm a topic/get books/get started! ugh. My stress free life is no more! lame lame lame. Tuesday I honestly, for the life of me, cannot remember what I did...obviously was not a productive day! I know that we went to Atrij and had lunch with Hanna and Reka, but that is about it.
Wednesday we had a girls lunch with Hanna (Finnish), Reka(Hungarian), the Spanish girls, and Marine (French) which was really nice. When we all get together like that (all 10 of us haha), we are so loud! I think the staff at the restaurant were a little afraid. Then we walked to the new mall, Planet Tus, that had opened just that day. There were A MILLION (not literally) people there from all down the istrian coast, but it didn't feel that crowded inside. It is such a great mall...H&M, top shop, Zara, etc. plus a bowling alley/disco and a pool hall..and a cinema! hazaah! Finally something to do! That night it was the Scottish/Irish presentation night, so we all went to that and had a good laugh. The scottish try and claim alexander graham bell as a scottish inventor, but we Canadians know the truth and booed them as loud as we could. All in good fun of course. The more of these presentations that we go to, the more...interactive...they become haha. Then we all went out dancing till the wee hours of the morning..which meant that thursday was pretty much shot haha. I went for coffee with Ali and Laura at Calypso and read some stuff for school, and then when back later with Reka and had another coffee while we discussed the previous nights events. A lovely little girl chat and a coffee by the sea...what could be better??
Friday the others went to Ljub. like i mentioned earlier, but I couldn't stop coughing like a crazy person, so I stayed home. I did lots of reading which was actually good, and also dyed eggs! Good Friday traditions live on! Yesterday was another "do whatever" day, so we went back to Tus to look around and then read some more stuff and Hanna and I climbed the bell tower! 204 steps baby...the view was AMAZING, I will try and post a picture below. Then we went out for chinese food dinner and then to the new club at Tus...it was amazing! so much bigger than anything else here, decent music, no cover, and the drinks were not toooo expensive. Good night had by all, except at the end when some fight broke out and our poor scottish boys got injured. Well, Shaun got injured and Gibs just fell on his butt and now says his butt hurts. Shaun got in an actual fight and ended up breaking a bottle on some guys head which resulted in both of them having to go to Izola to the hospital for stitches. I will post a pic of that too haha.
Today is Easter! I made a huge lunch for my erasmus family and we had a lovely 3 hour chat in the garden while we ate. It was actually super nice! I am so glad I did it. Made it feel like homeeee. That's it for now! Enjoy the lovely photos.
