Springtime, SPRINGTIME!!! Yay! The fleurs are a-bloomin' and ...despite the occasional individuals affected by the pollen zipping around... moods are lifting! *sigh* Sunshine... how I love thee... WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME BAA-ACK?! haha...
Alright, enough of this non-sense.
Yesterday there was a bit of a demonstration at the University... well... most of them, actually. So, classes in the main building were cancelled. (Basically, the students that were camping out in the main entrance we're asked to leave by the Dean... this is just what I heard, so I'm not exactly sure how accurate it is... They refused, so early yesterday morning, police came and kicked them out. They fought back, and so now the school is closed for the next few days to prevent a riot from breaking out.) SoOoOo... having had my classes cancelled, I headed up Tibidabo to check out the greenery... or flowery, as it has recently turned into. Check it, yo!

In other news, I've been crazy busy trying to balance playtime with school work, but having an absolute blast despite the activity! Umm... I recently began working with a friend on his English skills; and consequently, am dabbling a little bit in Ukrainian. Holy cow, that language is hard to pronounce! And am teaching a friend how to cook some awesome chicken tonight. OH! random side note... I was taking to one of the guys from my church the other day, and asked him if he knew what summer squash was. He had no clue... and ... I must admit... I gave him the nasty "are you kidding me?!" look... So! I went to the open market to try to find it, and I couldn't! They kept pointing to pumpkins, and I was like, "NO! I don't want PUMPKINS! I'm looking for ... well, they're like zucchinis, but yellow and shaped like lightbulbs." ...Blank stare... "You mean pumpkins?" "NO!"... Oh man! Who feels silly now?! I guess produce availability changes across the pond... that would explain the massive stacks of Kiwis they're selling for dirt cheap in every grocery store... (Oh my goodness, I'm in Kiwi heaven!!!). So, I bought Eggplant instead. Should be stellar! Right? RIGHT?! Anyways, looking forward to getting my hands dirty in a kitchen again... and then washing them before I begin cooking... Alright! Enough of this randomnicity! I have a date with Elly Clemmons! (Drs. Clemmons' Daughter) Yay! She's fun =)
Hope you're all doing well! Hear from you soon!
