Yes, it has creeped upon us all. The dreaded week of lasts and tests. I have eight days left in London, three full days before my first finals, and about 96 hours of homework and studying to do. Let's just say I am in desperate need of a reading day (which they don't have), a lot of energy (which I am also lacking) and sleep (which I won't be getting). In other words, I am praying for a miracle (thank you We Shot The Moon- Miracle it's been running through my mind for the last two days).
In short, here is my hypothetical to-do list for my time remaining in London:
- Field Studies: Tate Britain, Tate Modern, Mrs. Dalloway walk & Bloomsbury Walk
- Journals: Great War, Humanities & International Studies (which is a journal entry for every trip we have gone on-- which was twice a week)
- Projects: Family History, Jane Austen Blog & Emma film adaptation analysis
- Papers: Two, two-page single-spaced papers for Great War, Humanites one-page, and Family History three- page
- Studying: Great War & Modernism, Humanities, and Religion.
- School Activities: The Messiah Recital & High Tea at Kensington Palace
- Personal: Arsenal Soccer Game, Christmas Shopping (Lush, Hatchard's, & Lillywhites)
- PACK
I am normally one get very focused (I wouldn't say high strung) when there is this much to do in so little time, but if I have to take finals, there isn't any better place to take them than in LONDON! The next week will be challenging, but I am ready to take it on. Once it's over, it will be an amazing feeling.
Did I mention I love London. I love Christmas time in London. I love running through Hyde Park at dawn (even if the ponds & river are frozen over). I love living with 36 girls + 2 boys. I love the culture and atmosphere. I love the people. I love the shopping. I love the tube system & the double decker buses. I love the strength of the members here in London and Europe. I don't think I will ever be able to get enough London.
