And time marches on...

Today Ben and I are writing our papers. It's insane. I'm nearly done - just have the last comparative portion to do which really should consist of about 3 paragraphs. I want to have it done by 1:00 GMT so that I can email it to Steenson's assistant and be done with it. Then I can set aside Comparative Constitutional History and move on to International Environmental Law. Our final is tomorrow morning at 9am. I want to do fairly well. I managed somehow to bring my GPA up with the spring semester - Crim Law grade & all. So I'd like to continue that trend. If I could get 2 A's this time around, then another 2 with my classes in London, I would be very, very happy.

I am in awe that we are leaving for London day after tomorrow. It blows my mind that I have been in Edinburgh for three weeks already!!! It went by so fast...I think I have mostly my classes to thank for that. Tomorrow is finals in the morning, then laundry and packing and all that jazz. I plan on leaving for the airport on the shuttle at 8:30 ish from Waverly Station, my flight to London is at 11:20 AM on Saturday. The only part that I'm really dreading is the evil figuring out how to get from Gatwick to the place where I pick up the keys to our apartment and then sorting out how to get to the apartment. Once I get there and can ditch all my stuff, I can get the lay of the land, walk around and figure out where school is in relation to where we're staying. I am NOT looking forward to having a roommate that I don't know & don't pick that I actually share a room with. A lot of the other students are really in the "we're overseas so we're going to live it up!" phase - thus, if I end up with them as an actually room-sharing-person and they're staggering in at 3am, I'm going to be CRANK-Y. I'll take my chances, it's only three weeks. But like I said, for all that I am determined to enjoy London and really experience the city, I want to do well in these classes.

I am determined to go see a couple shows while I'm in London. I really want to go and see some of the theatre that they have going on there. It's like New York - there is just so much to do and see that I want to really experience. While we were here in Edinburgh, we went out of the city one weekend to travel, but I know that I'm doing more traveling once I'm done in London, so I'm thinking I'm going to hang out in London both weekends so that I can really see London.

OK - enough rambling. I have to get this paper done. I am so close & today is study day for us.
