Week 3 Drawing to a Close

It is now Thursday of week 3. Only 5 more weeks to go! Yesterday went pretty well with my tutor. She said I had shown improvement from the week before, but I still got the feeling that it wasn't all that great. She made it seem like it was much better but once we sat down and started talking about it I got the impression that it really wasn't all that much better. But I guess some improvement is better than nothing!

I finally got my package yesterday...at 7:45AM. I ran downstairs to get the door and then I went to the kitchen to open it and put the "steak" in the freezer. For those of you who don't know my dad told me that he had sent 2 steaks. I thought this was a bit of an odd thing to do since I am so far away. So when I got the package I opened it immediately and put the "steaks" in the freezer. After going back to bed, I woke up and went downstairs to eat breakfast. I decided I should check on the steaks to make sure they weren't spoiled. What I hadn't bother to think of at 7:45 was how were the steaks kept cold if they were simply in a cardboard box. So I took the box out of the freezer and opened it to find santa snacks! I had been dooped... way to go Dad!

I got some great things in my package from home: Halloween candies, 2 wedding magazines (with pages folded down my mother and sister so I know what to look at), my wedding planner from theknot.com and some lovely cards! (and of course the Santa snacks mentioned above) Hopefully I will get this essay done early today and I will be able to do some wedding research/ planning :) Planning and plotting things out really gives me something to look forward to while I'm here. I can't wait to get home and start planning with my family!

This week has gone by pretty quickly and I'm somewhat thankful for that. I don't want to rush my time here but at the same time with each week I feel that I am accomplishing something. Today I have to finish my essay on fascism for tomorrow's tutorial. I only have my Wednesday tutorial next week so it will be nice to have a break from writing 2 essays per week. But knowing myself I will probably try to get ahead and write 2 essays next week anyways. I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the beautiful fall foliage, I hear it's quite vibrant this year! Until next time!
