So exams are in full swing at uni right now... even though I haven't had a single one yet. Everything is pretty quiet though and will be until the 5th of June. Gen and I have had a lot of time on our hands and we have taken advantage of it to the fullest degree. By fullest degree, I of course mean that I have now watched a ridiculous amount of downloaded television and films, along with rereading the Harry Potter series.
I have also taken to running and walking in Wollaton Park a lot in the evenings. Below is documented proof:

It's going to be weird leaving Nottingham and possibly never seeing the people I met ever again. I'm not usually one for nostalgia, but leaving this place may do the trick.
Anyway, next up on the agenda is planning the trip to Spain before I head back to the states. I'll leave you with this link that I'm sure will fill the 'rents with confidence about me traveling there.

AHHHHHHHH! So I'm almost done with my essays for this semester... one more to go for my Viking Age class.
I've pulled waaaaay too many all nighters lately and I'm really excited to be done with this semester. After the last essay, I have two exams (June 2 and 4) and then I will be done... finally. And I'll be a senior... wow, getting old, yeah?
Oh, yet another reason I feel old, Tricia and Bryce are now engaged. (Parents, you remember them right? Tricia was the tall, bubbly blonde, went to prom with Mark senior year, went to UGA for Chemistry & Bryce was the tall one with shaggy hair (: hah.) Anyway, they've been dating for three years and he proposed about two nights ago. They are incredibly happy together and I just am in awe that I have friends that are planning a wedding.
So yeah, I'll talk to you soon family and I hope everything is going swimmingly.
