Things have been a little crazy at the castle lately. Everyone is rushing about and trying to finish up all the assignments as well as study for our final exams this week. Just two more tests stand between me and summer. Even better, I will be on summer break and there will be snow on the ground in Minnesota!!! Hahahah.. Of course, most people don't find that funny at all, but to me its pretty hilarious. I must admit though, I am a little jealous I wasn't in Minnesota for this wild winter.
On a more mellow note, I have not been feeling very good lately. I got a cough way back in March while in Holland and it never really went away. Over the past few days, its been getting worse and has turned into a respiratory problem. Now, I should probably just go to the infirmary for medicine, but I am too stubborn for that. So, I have persisted to overcome it naturally through home remedies. I gargled warm salt water like a good girl (I can just see Grandma Kalthoff smiling about this!) and have been drinking lots of hot fluids. Today, I have actually seen improvement which is exciting, but if it persists to be as bad as yesterday was, I will go in because I don't want to spend my Greek holiday in bed when I could be on the beach:)
Everyone at the castle is in a mixed mood of 'I am sick of everyone' and 'I am really going to miss everyone' as our study abroad experience draws to a close. Nevertheless, we are all embracing every opportunity to have a blast. Last night, we had a big sleepover in one of the larger dorm rooms where we all watched Bridesmaids projected on to the wall. Thursday night, after our last class of the semester, we are all going out to the pubs to celebrate! It is sure to be a fun time for all. But for now, its time to get back to the books.
