Spring Time in Aberdeen

Hey Everyone!

So, as my friends at home celebrate their being DONE with finals... I've got an entire week to study for mine and THEN take them. JOY! Haha. This week is revision week so I'll be hitting the books and wracking my brain. I have four finals.. Linear Algebra, Probability, Old Testament, and Critics/Defenders *in that order* on Tuesday(26) , Wednesday(27), Thursday(28), Monday(1). So now you guys know... if I fall off the face of the planet during those days... you know why.

Recently things in Aberdeen have been amazing. I have groups of friends larger than I thought possible for the time I'm here. Going home will be very hard... but I am getting home-sick pangs again. The thoughts of summer.. Indian Acres, watching Marky play baseball, sitting on the back-porch with mom and dad while dad grills out... yeah I'm missing home some :) But it will all come round in time. Right now I'm trying to focus on A:exams and B: making the most of the time left.

Here are some photos from my recent adventures... and a few nice ones of the park for mommy :) the tulips have passed now but they were AMAZING for about 3 weeks.

Enjoy!!

The park I walk through to get to Uni every day had these fantastic flower arrangements

The park in the spring.. so gorgeous and so different from the park in the winter (first few posts)

This is a cool shot of the 1100's chapel on the road to school from the view point of the path you have to take through the park. I'm going to miss walking past it every day... the steeples are so high you can see them from the beach.



There was an end-of-term party at the pub (with a silent disco!) and all the girls got ready together.. too cute and SO much fun!

A great shot of Toril, Katie, and Myself. These girls are so wonderful! I'm planning on visiting them in Chicago when Toril comes for her "america trip" from Norway

A cook-out on the beach with "team america" haha...
