Mar 31^st

A note tacked to cork,

multiplied and rearranged,

gives onlookers joy.

Here is my wall of wonder.  It contains ticket stubs, maps, letters from friends, pictures, notes from my siblings, and my Harry Potter stamps.  (See if you can spot them!)  This wall serves as a reminder of all the awesome people I'll get to see when I return home in July.





     My mom arrived in Leeds, England today!  After my last class of the week (2 1/2 hours of presentations), I headed out and picked her up from her hostel.  We got lunch, walked around the Student Union a bit, and headed to my flat.  From there, we planned out our time in Paris, France!  We even bought tickets for a night cruise along the river Seine!  Even better, this cruise includes dinner!
    After we finished our planning, we went back to the Union to eat dinner at the Old Bar, a restaurant that serves great fish 'n chips (or so I hear, I'm not a big fan of fish).
    Now she's back at her hostel and I am procrastinating on finishing my essay.  I really should get it done.  Why is 800 words so intimidating?  Or maybe it's not the writing of the essay that is the problem, but rather the act of getting myself to start writing in the first place?!

     By the way, I've just realized that on beginning Saturday, I'll be computer-less for an entire month!  The last time I didn't have internet for a month (which is nearly the same thing) was 2 years ago.  This is going to be such a weird feeling!!  I'll be so...disconnected!

Here is a picture of the meal I had the first time I tried my home-brewed beer.  I thought chicken and veggies would be a good complement to Monkey Head.
