Every time I wake up early for skiing, I question if it worth it to lose a Saturday morning's worth of sleep. I usually chug my coffee before I have time to answer this question. Even more, I'm in the alps and need to take advantage of the world class skiing while I still can.... Continue Reading →
I woke up this morning at 8 AM this morning, my first class was at 9:45. I checked the weather and saw it was supposed to be 75 degrees later this afternoon. It's hard not to be in a good mood when it's Friday and beautiful outside. My morning routine was the same as always,... Continue Reading →
I woke up today already dreading my circuits lab today. One step at a time I guess. I got up around 8 and ate breakfast in the usual fashion. After eating, I made my lunch for today which consisted of a speculoos and jelly sandwich, an apple, and oreos. I put it all in a... Continue Reading →
I finally was able to get some quality sleep after a bunch of early starts the past couple of days. I got a full ten hours and woke up around 9:00. I took my time my laying around this morning since my only real task before class was my French homework. I was starving for... Continue Reading →
After some crappy sleep on the bus, we finally arrived in Grenoble around 1:30 AM. By some incredible stroke of luck, I was able to catch the very last A line tram of the night. I was incredibly grateful to not have a forty minute walk back. I quickly unpacked and went to bed when... Continue Reading →

We got up around 8:30 to make sure we had enough time to get to mass. We had decided to go to Easter mass on our island of Lido instead of main-land Venice since it would be a huge pain and super crowded there. We found a local church on the island that was about... Continue Reading →
In an effort to make the most of the day, all three of us got up early around 7:30. We didn't even need an alarm, we woke up from the lightning storm going on outside. We were hoping the forecast would be wrong, but it was raining this morning. For breakfast, Nick cooked the eggs... Continue Reading →
Today was a super early start and I got up around 4 AM. I had looked at the tram schedule the night before, and gave myself a solid fifty minutes to leave the house this morning. I hadn't finished packing completely and wanted some extra time. Fifty minutes later, I had packed my bag, eaten,... Continue Reading →
This morning was a successful one, I actually remembered what I time I had French on Thursdays unlike last week. I woke up around 9 this morning and watched an episode of Silicon Valley before eating breakfast. The episodes are only thirty minutes long and a new season just started. Afterwards I headed downstairs for... Continue Reading →
