Another trip, a make up class, and Othello

-
Yesterday morning, I got up and went for a walk just near and around Chapter. I ended by walking through a work and I saw a bunch of school children there. They were just chatting- I didn't hear about what but they all looked so happy and chill. Also here everyone wears a uniform but despite all looking quite similar you could still see all of their personalities shinning through. Then I came back did so weights and got ready for the day. Also I took a selfie because I looked Pretty darn Cute!

My first class was a field trip to the Charles Dickens Museum and one of my other teachers, Lucinda, was the tour guide because she is the great great great granddaughter of Dickens. It was a mix of a replica of his house and a factual experience which was nice but rushed because we really only had 45 minutes.

After that I walked back to IES with Mark(mike), Sylvia and Lily. I then had a great lunch outside in the sunlight. The only downside was that I sat in a puddle of water and felt uncomfortable until the end of my AA class.

Next was Theater with James were we talked about Shakespeare. It was interesting but I was tired and wasn't as engaged as I normally am. James then passed out the tickets and every groaned that we had to stand for soooooo long-I on the other hand, was super pumped because it made me feel even more connected to the show-like I was grounded into the tradition of it.

Then AA, which was a makeup class. I had a ten minute break in-between the two. The class was fine , we had some student presentations today so that was super cool. Then boom class was done and we were off to the globe.


I arrived at the Globe at 7 and I went down some stairs along the river and had my dinner there. It was quite peaceful and I got to watch the sun start to set. Here is a time-lapse of it- Enjoy but ignore my foot.

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.
