If there is one thing that’s a must with hostels, it is having a sleep mask and earplugs. You can never count on hostels being quiet. This was definitely the case last night. I slept okay and gave myself plenty of time in the morning to get up and eat before my 9:00 AM train... Continue Reading →
Catania e Cavallo-Day 97-April 16th, 2018
Its always good to have some pre-trip excitement. This proves very useful when you have to get up at 3:30 AM to give yourself enough time to walk to the bus station, then take an hour long bus ride to the airport. I guess it sounds much better on paper when you book the travel... Continue Reading →
Day of Nothing-Day 96-April 15th, 2018
I really didn't do anything today. Knowing I had nothing planned for today, I didn't set an alarm this morning and slept in. I woke up around 9:30, but stayed in bed for a half hour. I eventually got up when I started to feel hungry. Breakfast was exactly the same as I have every... Continue Reading →
Turtle Time-Day 95-April 14th, 2018
The gym I go to is only open until 1:00 PM on Saturdays and is closed on Sundays. There had only been one time I actually made it to the gym on a Saturday morning. This morning would be different, I was going to be productive. I got up around 8:30 and didn't waste any... Continue Reading →
Day of Strikes-Day 94-April 13th, 2018
Despite staying up a bit later the night before, I woke up surprisingly refreshed. My morning rituals were the same as they always were. I finished my box of Frosties this morning and am hoping it would be replaced by a new one tomorrow. Anne-Marie works in mysterious ways. Me eating breakfast next to a... Continue Reading →
Finders Keepers-Day 93-April 12th, 2018
Jeudi. Jovedi. Thursday. It doesn't matter what language you say it in, it was a Thursday and that meant having my terrible circuits lab. I was already dreading it when I woke up at 9:00 this morning. After breakfast, I had to be productive because I didn't get any work done last night due to... Continue Reading →
BU Sponsored Alcohol Consumption-Day 92- April 11th, 2018
Wednesdays used to be my favorite day since I didn't have class. Now Wednesdays are my favorite, but because I only have two classes. On top of that, my first class was at 1:30. This meant maximum productivity (or procrastination) on Wednesday mornings depending on my mood. This morning was a mix of both. I... Continue Reading →
Please Don’t Eat the Radioactive Material-Day 91-April 10th, 2018
I've been getting in the habit of setting an alarm thirty minutes before my real one. I also make sure the song that plays are the same for both. This first alarm works beautifully because once and a while it wakes me up and I think its the real alarm. When I'm about to get... Continue Reading →
One Lecture Too Many-Day 90- April 9th, 2018
I really need to invest more time in my weekend sleep because I was still really tired when I got up at 8:00 AM this morning. After forcing myself to get out of bed, I did have one positive surprise waiting for me. When I went to go eat breakfast downstairs, I noticed a brand... Continue Reading →
Day of Rest-Day 89-April 8th, 2018
I woke up around 8 AM today and my first task of the day was going to the doctor's office. I felt a bit better, but had a slight headache. Waking up this morning kind of felt like waking up with a hang over. I got changed and ate my breakfast. I decided to skip... Continue Reading →
