Exam Season Approaches and Some Thoughts about the End of the Semester

It’s that time of year! I am about to start my last week of classes and then I will have a SWOTVAC period (like a reading week) and then commence my three-week exam period. For two of my classes I have a final essay, and for my other two I have sit-down exams. Luckily they are spaced out pretty evenly across the exam period so I do not think I will have to be cramming too much.

However, I am the queen of procrastination so there is a high chance that will still happen.

Seeing as the last week of classes is approaching, it is starting to sink in that I am leaving Australia soon. Besides from fear of becoming a senior and generally having to start figuring out what I want to do for the rest of my life, I am sad because I don’t want to leave Melbourne! Melbourne is by far my favorite city I’ve ever lived in, and I would love to stay here forever. I’ve met amazing people and genuinely have had the best semester of my life over here. But instead of mulling over how time is running out, I want to take advantage of the time I have left and have some remaining memorable experiences, like visiting Uluru, seeing the Great Barrier Reef, and exploring more of the city.

Yesterday I went to the Royal Botanical Gardens and had a great day out with some friends. I rediscovered my love for palm trees, and saw some amazing flowers and plants. More importantly, I found a fast food place called Lord of the Fries which serves 100% vegan food, including vegan burgers, chicken, and sauces. Ideal for the sometimes-cheating-fake-fegan vegan! Only kidding, but finding a place like Lord of the Fries really makes me love living in a city, because there are so many more food options for my lifestyle. Got to love Clinton and New Hartford, but almost everything is covered in some sort of cheese!

for my Easter break I went to Bali to visit a friend studying there, and so I will  have some videos up of my time there, as soon as I can figure out why they are not uploading properly.

See you soon!
