The Picnic and the hunt

-
So today we had a picnic with our Skidmore Faculty to discuss our summer reading. I really enjoyed hearing everyone's thought but I wish we had been in a smaller group then 40 people. I am looking forward to talking more about it in class tomorrow.
As for the scavenger hunt... I was less of a fan. Partially because I am at the point where I just want to explore with friends and partially because one person in our group was bossy and rude (and it wasn't me). We ended up at Trafalgar Square to take pictures with the lions and she was trying to hurry us there but there were live musicians so everyone else wanted to stay and listen. I eventually told this person that we should wait 2 minutes or so and I think she actually set a timer because she turned to me and said it's been 2 minutes. We ended up waiting until the song ended but she was very annoyed with us. Oh well- Don't have to be friends with everyone.

Then I called home to talk with daddy and Belinda. Finished some homework- I am now ahead in all of my classes!(woot woot) Made dinner and here I am now.
I am going to bed soon but I hope everyone has a great rest of their day

    Very annoying -- hopefully you'll find a day to go back. There's a great church right off the square -- St. Martins of the Field. You can have lunch in the crypt :-)

I lost the game! and other fun traditions

-
One day last week, or maybe it was the week before, was national wear your camp t-shirt day-of which no one (at school) that I know participated. However there is no need to fret because yours truly-super counselor extraordinaire remembered and wore her staff shirt from last summer. This combined with the Hillel retreat where we sang a lot of the end of session songs and an email encouraging us to apply for summer 2020, reminded me of all the little traditions from camp that I wish took place more in my daily life. For my camp friends reading this I hope it doesn't make you too nostalgic, and for everyone else maybe this a way to bring a little bit of fun to the office or maybe the holidays. The pineapple game When you are out with a group of people the first one to point to the pineapple and say I win. Wins. Yep- that's the whole game. I do highly recommend it for group shopping trips as it brings a sense of adventure to what can be a drab day at the mall. Invisible ...

Less Busy

-
Yesterday I got up and worked on some papers and then around 11 decided to make up my mind for the day. I had a kind bar and hit the road. I went to the Barbican, Postman's Park, and Postal museum The Barbican is a really unique building because it has plants overall the windows. The Postman's Park is much smaller than many parks that I have been to but that there are some titles that describe heroic events live saving children from a fire. Finally the Postal museum was incredible. I didn't think that I would enjoy it nearly as much as I did. Also at the museum, you can ride the mail rail, which is the old mail cart which would run under the city. Overall I had a great time and I was able to walk most of these so I saw many new parts of the city. Today I leave for Derby today to visit a camp friend. Don't expect any more posts until Sunday Morning. Have a Great Weekend!

Meal Prep and a Movie

-
This will be brief because I am going to watch a movie with some friends. Today I got up and read in bed for a bit. I then got up and worked out before going foodshopping. I got stuff for the week and also to make Nutella brownies with. They were pretty good, a little gooey but that didn't stop anyone. I then proofread a paper and did more research for AA overall it was a really chill day.
