Saturday’s shenanigans

Here is today! I promise it will be less gushy. We had class again at 9:30, until 2pm, and I woke up with my 8:52 alarm but for some reason decided that since they were out so late last night, Michalis must have made class start later. I usually hear people stirring outside, and I … Continue reading →

A long ramble about emotions and bugs

Yesterday was a lil weird so I didn’t quite feel like writing, but I’ll fill it all in now! Class was supposed to be from 9:30- 11:30 but the schedule was typoed and it actually went until 2. I don’t know how that’s a possible typo, but it was surprising. Kindof an unwelcomed surprise because … Continue reading →

A jam packed day (better than jelly packed amirite)

We were back to class today! And a whole lot of it- from 9:30am to 2pm. Although I’m finding that it goes super quickly, which is nice because it means I’m actually zoned in for most of it. Today was nice because it wasn’t super hot, and there was a really nice breeze in the … Continue reading →

The Scents of Ikaria

Day 2: pasta and an elaborate bladder story

This is my “first for everything” story for the day- i peed in the ocean! (technically sea but whatevs) which is something I’ve always found weird or scary and such. But since I’ve been trying to drink a lot of water so as to not be dehydrated I have to pee every ten minutes. Not … Continue reading →

A thought.

This is the third day in a row I’ve worn a striped shirt. Soon I will complete my metamorphosis into a zebra.

Official Start in Ikaria

Today was the first day of class! Granted class was from 5-8pm, so it didn’t feel overwhelmingly school-ish, but it was still good to get education neurons back up and firing. I was super tired this morning as I expected, but we had to get up to have a little meeting about the next two … Continue reading →

Departure and Arrival, the extended version

There are roosters crowing outside. Or cooing? Cocking? Do not know the correct term. It is super late, but a lot happened today so I want to make sure to get it all down! And by today I mean from Saturday at 10am until now, Monday at 5am. Time zones are weird. Okay so! It … Continue reading →
