Life is a Party


I went out for a 'Tapas Crawl' with Aga, Karol and the guys and Marie joined us later on as well! I think that one was of the best nights we have had! We were supposed to go to these salsa classes but we spent to long eating. Typical me eh? It was also Aga's birthday this week and she had a massive dinner by the beach. Hands down the best paella I had ever had! It was amazing. After that we just went, sat by the beach and hung out there - it was such a good night! I feel like I say that about every night here but honestly, I am having the time of my life. I think this will be one of the best experiences I will ever have and I am so happy with where I am in life right now - just enjoying it to the fullest surrounded by amazing people who I know I will stay friends with for a very very long time!

Exams Over!


Now that exams are out of the way I can finally get back to living life :D I went to Papperdella with Katka after our Economics exam because we are obsessed with their cheesecake.. I am such a fatty :( I think the exams well pretty well you know, especially the Industrial Economics one and the Competition Law one. I think I found the law on the easiest but I guess that's natural ;) Surprisingly, the strategic management one was pretty hard. I thought business was supposed to be easy?! (no offence to those with a business studies degree). I also went shopping with Karol - didn't need anything specific, just a few things here and there. Karol's leaving soon (:'() so she needed to get a few things for her friends. We went bowling with Aga and the guys after that. We got stopped by the police though :o because we were six in a car so yes, it was our fault. But they wanted to fine us 200 euros! And they were pretty rude you know but I think it was because the guys are French but thank god, they somehow got us out of it. We had a blast! It was such a good time, we did something different for a change because usually here in Spain its always lunches, cafes, beach, sun .. and YES that sounds amazing and it IS amazing but its always nice to change it up a bit :) I just realised it's Shiza's (my little sister) birthday tomorrow.. and I wish I was there :( I've only got around a month left to go home though. Not long now.

Exam Season


My study date with Katka didn't go really well XD as expected we did not get as much done as we should have because I was distracted, no, VERY distracted by FB! Katka was actually studying, it was just me that was being silly. So now she's banned me from seeing her until after the exam :/ That's what I get. I have been good the last couple of days because I have actually been studying! I spent most of it studying by myself and with Karol once or twice. Although, I did go out to see Lucy and Bianca - I always have a fab time with Lucy! I did procrastinate a little bit by watching some friends (I am totally in love with that show and cannot get over it!) - but a little procrastination is allowed i think! :D I have ALOT more studying to do though for the exam tomorrow. I still don't feel like it's tomorrow and you only get that kind of feeling in two situations - either im amazingly prepared or I am not prepared at all. I have a feeling it is the latter :/

Am I studying yet?

Soooo... I think I have like a week till my exams start and I STILL haven't started studying properly. I know I know I really should but it's pretty hard with the amazing weather and the palm trees and the beach and .. I could go on and on but you get it. I met up with Hafsa lot after SUCH a long time! It was me, Hafsa, Helen, Bara, Frauke and Vicky. We went for Paella in the city centre - it was sooo good as always! It was really nice catching up with all of them. Most of them are leaving soon :( I also went to a beach party in the week and I'd never been to one so it was pretty cool! Everyone had their mini bbq's and campfires and sheesha, it was just such a nice atmosphere. We stayed for quite a bit - just eating and playing songs on the guitar. I'm literally so glad I'm getting to do all these type of things here because I know when I go back to England I ain't getting any of this! I realise how little time I have left and I hate it :'( Really, where has the time gone? I have a study session with Katka soon so I better go. I hope we ACTUALLY study rather than mess around XD

Just another wonderful week in Valencia.

I have to admit the Holi Run was not as good as the Madrid one - it was much smaller. However, I still had great fun! It was right by the beach so after the run we all went for a much needed cooling down - it was so hot! and the running did NOT help..

I met these two girls on the way back home.. Sarah (British) and Lisa (German). They were having trouble with the metro tickets so I helped them and we got talking. They actually have a pretty cool story of how they are friends. They basically met when they were on holiday and stayed in touch. Now, whenever they want to meet up they go on holiday together - so basically they are travel buddies. I just found it pretty fascinating that they decided to keep in touch.

So I met them for a drink (non-alcoholic for me ofcourse) and it turned out to be a pretty good evening. After that I went to see Lucy, Molly and Bianca. It was all great fun!

I also saw Aga and Karol later in the week as per usual. I had dinner with Karol and we stayed up till late and then ended up at the beach to watch dawn. It was absolutely amazing! and pretty chilly actually..

I have exams coming up soon :( and although I am much better at exams than assignments, I just cannot be bothered to study. But really, who can? I always always end up procrastinating. Usually on Youtube. Watching make-up videos. Oops! I do have a feeling though, that these Spanish exams will be much much easier than the Canadian ones. Although, I know I'll find learning some Spanish law pretty hard :/
